Larger buses (and some mid-size minibuses) include flat-screen monitors with DVD/Blu-ray players, onboard Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets at every row, and a clean restroom at the rear of the coach. Additional amenities can include leather upholstery, tray tables, footrests, and forward-facing seating throughout. On new or upgraded models, you may also get Bluetooth audio, microphone inputs, and custom lighting.

Yes, most full-size charter buses (40–56 passengers) have a bathroom located at the rear of the coach. The restroom is compact and includes a toilet and hand sanitizer dispenser or small sink. It’s designed for emergency use while the bus is moving. Smaller vehicles (minibuses and sprinter vans) typically do not have a bathroom on board. For longer trips, your driver can make regular stops at rest areas or gas stations with full restroom facilities.

Yes, most newer charter buses are equipped with power outlets and USB ports. On full-size coaches, you’ll typically find 110V outlets and USB ports at each row of seats, either above the armrest or below the window. This allows passengers to charge laptops, tablets, and phones during the trip. Some older buses may have outlets only at the front or rear of the cabin, while newer models have them at every seat. If having power outlets is important for your group, be sure to request a bus with this feature when you book.

Yes, most modern charter buses offer onboard Wi-Fi. The connection is suitable for checking email, browsing the web, and using social media. Streaming video or downloading large files may be limited to conserve bandwidth. If your group requires fast or unlimited Wi-Fi (for video calls, streaming, or online gaming), let us know when you book so we can assign a bus with an upgraded data plan. Keep in mind that cellular-based Wi-Fi can be spotty in rural areas or tunnels.

Yes, all full-size charter buses have ample luggage space. Large items and suitcases are stored in undercarriage bays accessible from outside the bus. Carry-on bags, backpacks, and smaller items can be placed in overhead racks inside the cabin. A standard 56-passenger coach can accommodate up to 50 large suitcases plus additional carry-on items. Minibuses have limited luggage space, usually behind the rear seats or in a small cargo area. If your group has extra luggage, sports equipment, or bulky items, mention this when booking so we can assign a vehicle with adequate storage.

Full-size charter buses typically seat 50 to 56 passengers. Smaller minibuses can accommodate anywhere from 18 to 35 passengers, depending on the model.

In Parma, you can park and load a charter bus at several convenient locations depending on your itinerary. For school trips or sporting events, many local schools such as Parma Senior High School and Normandy High School have designated bus zones in their parking lots.

For longer-term parking or transfers, The Shoppes at Parma shopping center has extensive surface lots suitable for bus staging and passenger loading. Additionally, many local churches and civic buildings have large lots that can be used with prior permission.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance—especially if your trip is during peak season (spring and fall) or involves a large event. Last-minute rentals are possible, but availability may be limited, and prices can be higher. For summer trips, holidays, or special events (like weddings and sports tournaments), book at least 6 months ahead. If you need a bus on short notice, we can often accommodate requests with a week or even a few days’ notice, but your vehicle options may be limited.
