Don’t gamble on motor coach transportation for your next group adventure. If you’ve ever organized a trip, you understand that small issues can quickly become critical mistakes. Creating frustrated passengers, while leading to added costs and delays.
At Holiday Coach Lines, we’ve heard it all, and want to pass down the most common mistakes when chartering a bus or shuttle here in Florida. More importantly, how you can avoid them, ensuring your journey is smooth sailing, safe, and stays on schedule.
Don’t wait until the last minute to book your charter bus
- The longer you wait to book your transportation, availability is limited and costs tend to be higher.
- Try to book 2 to 6 months ahead of time for the best fleet access and rates.
Make sure you ask about the company’s on-time performance
- Delays can easily derail a schedule and add to the costs.
- Ask the company about their track record when it comes to on-time service and reliability.
- Ask for insurance coverage, DOT ratings, and driver training standards.
Don’t overlook the amenities and comfort of the bus
- Poorly equipped or outdated motor coaches can make a trip miserable for the passengers.
- It is worth asking about features, climate control, reclining seats, power outlets, and WiFi.
Clarify all costs upfront
- Hidden fees can easily break the budget and become a strain on everyone.
- Ask for an all inclusive quote and if there will be any other fees, make sure you get it in writing.
