55 Passenger Charter Bus

Our fleet of 55-passenger charter buses includes top brands and models known for their reliability, comfort, and performance. Available options include the MCI J4500 and D4500 series, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. Each of these models is built to handle long-distance travel with large groups while providing a smooth ride and ample amenities. If you have a specific make or model preference, let us know when booking, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request based on current availability.

We offer 55-passenger charter buses in a variety of colors to match the style and tone of your event. Standard color choices include black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. For corporate branding or special occasions, we can provide custom wraps featuring logos, graphics, or other designs upon request. If you have a specific color preference, please mention it when booking so we can check availability and accommodate your needs.

Standard amenities on our 55-passenger buses include high-back reclining seats with armrests and footrests, powerful air conditioning and heating systems, multiple flat-screen monitors connected to a central DVD/Blu-ray player, and a full PA system for announcements. Each row is equipped with USB ports and 110V outlets for charging electronic devices, while free onboard WiFi keeps passengers connected throughout the journey. There’s a large restroom at the rear with a toilet and sink, plus overhead parcel racks for backpacks and personal items. Additional features may include tray tables, cup holders, tinted windows, window shades, and extra monitors depending on the exact model.

The cost to rent a 55-passenger charter bus in Middletown typically ranges from $180 to $500+ per hour, $1,800 to $3,800 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile. Your quote will include the base rate, driver gratuity, and standard amenities. Additional expenses not included are parking passes at venues (which you’ll need to purchase separately), tolls incurred during the trip, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight or multi-day runs. Final pricing depends on factors like trip distance, duration, time of year, and exact pickup location—buses starting from Middlesex, Hudson, Essex, Bergen, Union, Passaic, Mercer, or Monmouth counties may have different rates due to local demand and availability. For the most accurate real-time pricing, call our office or use the online quote tool; spring weekends and holiday periods often see higher rates due to peak demand.

The 55-passenger charter bus is the largest and most fully featured vehicle in our fleet, offering more seating capacity and amenities than any other option. Compared to smaller minibuses or party buses, it provides significantly more space for both passengers and luggage, making it ideal for long-distance trips and large groups. While a 25- or 35-passenger minibus might be easier to maneuver in tight urban environments, only a full-size coach like this can handle the transportation needs of an entire sports team, wedding party, or corporate department in a single vehicle. If you need something even larger, we also offer 56-passenger models; for smaller groups, consider one of our minibuses or sprinter vans.

It’s best to book your 55-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance, especially if your trip falls during peak seasons like spring break, summer vacation, or major holidays. Large events such as concerts, festivals, and sporting events can cause demand to spike, making it harder to secure a vehicle on short notice. Booking early gives you the best selection of available buses and helps lock in lower rates before prices go up. Last-minute reservations are possible but may be subject to limited availability and higher costs.
