Frequently Asked Questions About Charter Bus Rentals in Anaheim

A charter bus is a large motorcoach with forward-facing seats, a center aisle, and room for 18 to 56 passengers that you rent for private group transportation. It’s the biggest vehicle available from Coach Bus Anaheim, and it comes with reclining seats, overhead storage, underfloor luggage bays, optional restrooms, video monitors, WiFi, power outlets, and more. People use charter buses for school trips, sports travel, corporate shuttles, weddings, airport transfers, and any event that requires moving a lot of people together.

A charter bus seats anywhere from 18 to 56 passengers depending on the model and how it’s configured. Standard full-size coaches have either 50 or 56 seats arranged in rows of two on each side of a center aisle. Smaller “mini” versions can have 18, 20, or 25 seats but use the same basic layout. We offer 18, 20, 25, and 56 passenger buses so you can get exactly the size you need for your group.

The outside of a charter bus is a long, rectangular body with a flat roof, vertical rear end, and slightly angled front windshield. It has large side windows for each row of seats, a single entry door at the front curbside, and solid panels below the windows that open to reveal luggage compartments. Most are painted white or black, but custom colors and graphics are available. The overall look is boxy and functional, built for highway travel and maximum interior space.

The inside of a charter bus features rows of forward-facing seats upholstered in fabric or vinyl, a center aisle running from front to back, and high ceilings you can stand up in. There are overhead racks above the seats for small bags, video monitors mounted at the front and along the aisle, and optional restroom at the rear. Interior colors are usually blue, gray, or brown with patterned seat fabrics. Lighting runs along the ceiling edges, and there are individual reading lights and air vents for each seat.

The cost of renting a charter bus in Anaheim typically ranges from $1,200 to $5,000+ depending on the type of bus, length of trip, number of days, and mileage.

Several factors affect the price of your Anaheim charter bus rental: the size and type of vehicle you choose, the number of passengers, the distance and duration of your trip, the time of year (peak season vs. off-season), and any additional amenities or special requests. Multi-day trips and out-of-town destinations will increase the total cost. We provide customized quotes for each trip so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

You can get a quote by calling our reservations team at 657-657-8510 or filling out the online form on our website. Just tell us your pickup location, destination, travel dates, group size, and any specific needs (like WiFi or ADA accessibility).

Your quote includes the charter bus rental, driver’s fee, fuel, tolls, and mileage based on your itinerary. It does not include the driver’s gratuity (usually 10–20%), parking fees, or hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. We’ll break down all costs upfront so there are no surprises.

Once you receive your quote, you can reserve your charter bus by signing the contract and making a deposit payment. The balance is due before the date of your trip. Our customer service team will help you finalize the schedule, passenger list, and any last-minute details. We accept major credit cards and electronic payments.

You should book your Anaheim bus rental at least 4 to 6 weeks in advance to ensure availability and get the best rates. Spring and summer are peak seasons due to school trips, weddings, and tourism, so vehicles sell out quickly. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have open vehicles, but selection may be limited. It’s always better to reserve early—you can adjust the details later if needed.

We offer 18, 20, 25, and 56 passenger buses only. That means you can get either a compact minibus for smaller groups or a full-size coach for up to 56 people. All vehicles come with forward-facing seats, A/C, and room for luggage. Larger models include restrooms, video screens, WiFi, power outlets, reclining seats, and underfloor storage. If you need something specific—like extra legroom or an ADA-accessible bus—we’ll make it happen. You choose the size that fits your group; we handle the rest.

Amenities on your Anaheim charter bus rental include cushioned seats, air conditioning, overhead storage, undercarriage luggage compartments, video monitors, PA system, WiFi, power outlets, USB ports, and onboard restroom facilities. Additional features like reclining seats, footrests, tray tables, cup holders, reading lights, and tinted windows are available depending on the vehicle model. You can also request upgraded amenities such as leather seating, individual climate controls, and Bluetooth connectivity. ADA-accessible buses with wheelchair lifts and priority seating are available upon request.

Yes, most modern charter buses have 110V power outlets and/or USB charging ports at each row of seats. Older models may not have outlets, but you can request a bus with full power if your group needs to charge laptops, phones, or other devices during the trip. Outlets are typically located between the seat backs or under the armrests.

Yes, WiFi is available on many charter buses as an optional amenity. The onboard WiFi system connects to cellular networks and provides internet access for passengers’ smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Bandwidth is limited compared to home or office WiFi, so it’s best for email, web browsing, and messaging rather than streaming video. Be sure to request a WiFi-equipped bus when you book if internet access is important for your group.

Yes, full-size charter buses (40–45 feet) typically have a restroom located at the rear of the passenger cabin. The restroom includes a toilet, hand sanitizer dispenser or sink, mirror, and waste bin. It’s a compact “airplane-style” facility designed for emergency use during travel. Smaller minibuses may not have a restroom onboard. If restroom access is essential, confirm that your vehicle has one before booking.

Yes, a charter bus has multiple storage areas for luggage and personal items. There are large “underfloor” or “belly” compartments beneath the passenger deck that can hold suitcases, equipment cases, and other bulky cargo. Inside the cabin, there are overhead racks above the seats for carry-on bags, backpacks, and coats. Some models also have rear storage areas or additional shelving. Charter buses are built to handle both passengers and their gear on long trips.

Yes, most charter buses are equipped with video monitors mounted at the front of the cabin and/or overhead screens along the aisle. The number and size of screens vary by model. There is a central video system that can play DVDs, Blu-rays, or digital files on all screens simultaneously. Audio is broadcast through ceiling speakers or wireless headphones. Video monitors are used for showing movies, presentations, or entertainment during the trip.
