Several key factors influence the total price of your charter bus rental: travel dates and times (peak season and holidays cost more), pickup and drop-off locations (mileage and deadhead fees), number of days/hours the bus is needed, type and size of vehicle (minibus vs. full-size coach), and any special amenities requested. Supply and demand also play a role—buses book quickly around major events like graduations at CCSU or UConn Huskies games.

It’s best to book your charter bus at least four to six months before your trip, especially if you’re traveling during peak times like spring break, summer vacation, or around major events such as the Puerto Rican Festival or the New Britain Bees opening day. Buses are first come, first served, and availability becomes limited as your departure date approaches. Last-minute bookings may face higher prices and fewer vehicle options.

We offer a variety of vehicles to fit any group size, including 18-, 20-, and 25-passenger minibuses, as well as 56-passenger full-size charter buses.

Our charter buses come with a range of modern amenities to make your trip comfortable and enjoyable. Standard features include cushioned reclining seats, air conditioning, overhead storage racks, and undercarriage luggage compartments. Many vehicles also offer free WiFi, power outlets at every seat, flat-screen TVs with DVD players, PA systems, tray tables, footrests, and onboard restrooms (available on select models). If you have specific amenity requests—such as leather upholstery, color-changing LED lighting, or extra luggage space—let us know when you book and we’ll match you with the perfect vehicle.
