Before You Book
No matter which package you choose on Charter
Know Before You Pay
Browse a large selection of vehicles with no obligation, and once you find the ride you love, reserve it right online through the national booking platform with a deposit! Your remaining balance is due before departure, and a confirmation department will verify every stop on your schedule.
What Affects Your Price
Compare hourly, one-way, round-trip, and multi-day group transportation services in one search without ever being limited to a single local company's fleet! Your exact rate comes down to your headcount, timing, and route across Kings County. Take a look at the six main pricing factors below so you can plan your budget with confidence!
With TONS of different bus types in our network, a 56-passenger charter bus with an onboard restroom and luggage bays for an away game costs differently than a 15- to 50-passenger party bus, a 25-passenger minibus, or a sprinter van! You only pay for the space and amenities YOUR group actually needs.
Keeping your travel dates flexible can save your group money when demand spikes across New York City from late April through June and again during fall festival weekends! Major events like graduations at Brooklyn College, summer weddings in DUMBO and Williamsburg, and New Year's Eve celebrations book up fast. Reserving your bus three to six months ahead locks in lower rates before high-demand vehicles sell out!
With one quick online search, our 30-second quote tool calculates your exact mileage and hours whether you're booking a quick employee shuttle through Downtown Brooklyn and Brooklyn Navy Yard or an all-day trip down the BQE (I-278)! Local trips are usually billed hourly with a standard minimum, while long-distance charter bus rentals out of state are priced by the day or mile. Rush hour congestion along Atlantic Avenue or Flatbush Avenue can also add time to your package!
Choosing routes that cross the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel, or head into Manhattan for airport transfers to JFK or LaGuardia may involve commercial bridge tolls and paid oversized parking lots! These external road and venue fees aren't part of your base quote so you never pay inflated markups.
Cross state lines on a multi-day tour to Boston, Philadelphia, or Washington D.C., and you'll need to factor in overnight accommodations for your driver! For multi-day trips, your group provides a private, comfortable hotel room (typically 3-star or better with bus parking) so your driver stays rested. Trips requiring nonstop overnight travel may also need a second relief driver!

Ways to Save
Ride on a weekday. Weekday hourly rates in the table start below weekend rates for most buses, and Sunday through Thursday typically run the lowest rates.
Fill the seats you pay for. A bigger bus costs more per hour but less per person: a full 56-passenger charter bus starts under $4 per person, per hour.
Book early. Booking early gives you the widest choice of buses for your date.
Keep your pickups together. Every extra pickup adds time on the clock, so one meeting spot keeps the hours, and the price, down.
