54 Passenger Charter Bus

Our fleet includes the most popular and trusted 54-passenger charter bus models in the industry: the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are full-size, 45-foot motorcoaches built for comfort, reliability, and performance on long-distance or high-capacity routes. Each model offers advanced suspension, powerful HVAC, multiple video screens, and either forward-facing or optional executive-style seating layouts. If you need something specific—like a certain brand, color, or interior package—just ask when you call.

We offer 54-passenger charter buses in a wide range of standard and custom colors to fit any event or branding need. Choose from classic black, white, silver, and grey options, or make a statement with blue, red, navy, or even yellow exteriors. Need something unique? We also provide custom wraps—perfect for corporate branding, school spirit, or special-event graphics. Just let us know what color or design you need when you request your quote, and we’ll match you with the perfect coach.

Every 54-passenger charter bus comes loaded with premium amenities to keep your group comfortable, entertained, and connected on the road. Standard features include plush, reclining seats with headrests and armrests; powerful HVAC systems; overhead parcel racks; and multiple flat-screen video monitors with DVD/Blu-ray players. Stay connected with optional Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power outlets at every row, and advanced PA/sound systems. There’s a spacious restroom at the rear of the coach, plus huge underfloor luggage bays and optional custom branding/wraps. You can even request upgraded upholstery, woodgrain flooring, or leatherette seating on select models.

Rates for a 54-passenger charter bus typically range from $180 to $500+ per hour, $1,800 to $3,800 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile depending on the specifics of your trip. Your quote includes the bus, driver, fuel, insurance, and gratuity. Additional costs may include parking passes at venues (which you purchase), tolls, and a driver hotel room on overnight trips. Please note that pricing above are estimated rates and actual pricing may be significantly higher depending on availability and location.

The 54-passenger charter bus is one of the largest and most versatile vehicles in our fleet, making it ideal for big groups, long-distance trips, and events that require moving lots of people at once. Compared to smaller minibuses (which seat 18–35), this full-size coach offers significantly more seating, bigger luggage bays, a rear restroom, and multiple video screens—features you won’t find on compact models. While we do offer even larger 56- and 58-seat coaches for very large groups or split teams, the 54-seater hits the sweet spot for most school, corporate, and athletic travel: it’s easier to book, fits into tighter venues, and still delivers all the comfort and amenities of our biggest buses. If you’re not sure which size is best, just ask—we’ll help you compare specs and prices to get exactly what you need.

We recommend booking your 54-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance—especially if you’re traveling during peak seasons or around major local events. Spring and fall are busy times due to school field trips, sports tournaments, and weddings, while summer sees high demand for wine tours, festivals, and vacation travel. Large events like the Lodi Grape Festival, regional graduations, and corporate conferences can also impact availability. The earlier you reserve, the better your chances of getting the exact vehicle you want at the best possible rate. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be subject to limited availability and higher prices.
