At Charter Bus Newport Beach, we partner with many different bus companies. Pricing is determined by if your group is quoted by the day, hour, or mile, depending on the trip. The price per hour is usually only used for local trips lasting several hours. Multi-day trips are more often quoted by the day.
Travel Distance and Time
Newport Beach bus rentals are priced by the hour, day, or mileage. Local trips will likely be calculated by the hour, with most companies requiring a minimum number of hours. Multi-day trips, like a week-long convention or a sports tournament, are charged by the day. If your trip isn’t long distance, but you need local transport for several days, your rate will likely be based on daily charges. Longer road trips where you won’t be staying put for long, will be charged by mileage. To ensure your quote is accurate, have every destination planned with addresses.
Travel Date and Time of Year
Pricing changes according to the time of year, like April, May, June, September, and October, are more expensive because of high demand. Proms, weddings, company events, and bachelor parties all take place in these months, creating limited bus availability. Big events like concerts can also cause prices to go up. Check Newport Beach’s event calendar before setting travel dates and finalize your itinerary when you call so you won’t have added costs for extra mileage.
Pickup Location and Bus Availability
If you are traveling from an area with low availability, Newport Beach charter bus rentals may increase in price, as buses may not be readily available in less populated areas. If your driver has to drive a long distance to meet you at your start point, you may encounter deadhead fees. This is mileage accumulated with no passengers. Charter Bus Newport Beach can help reduce these fees, as we are partnered with numerous bus providers across California. Call us today!
Bus Model and Group Size
Depending on what type of bus you rent, your rental cost will change. A full-size motorcoach might be best for longer trips or when you need extra luggage space, while a mini bus rental is better for short trips. Mini buses have lower hourly and daily rates than charter buses, generally. You can always request additional leg room, typically 30–39 inches between seats.
Weekday vs. Weekend
Weekend rentals (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) are typically more expensive than weekday rentals (Monday–Thursday). When there’s high demand for Newport Beach bus rentals, like on Friday and Saturday nights, companies may increase their minimum rental times and per-hour rates to meet that demand. Weekday rentals may come with reduced minimum rental hours required for your reservation. Reserving during a low-demand weekday can help you book a better rate.
Daytime vs. Nighttime Pricing
For evening and weekend charters, expect a higher hourly rate and raised minimum number of rental hours required for your Newport Beach bus rental. This is because buses are in higher demand during this time, due to special events such as weddings and bachelor/bachelorette parties. Try to book a daytime trip on a weekday to receive the best rate possible.
Additional Features and Comforts
Amenities like WiFi, reclining seats, and ADA-accessible features, are often standard on each bus. Other amenities, such as restrooms, TVs with DVD players, and power outlets may have an additional charge. Let your reservation specialist know your amenity requests, so they can include these in your quote. Some providers offer discounts for prepaid or advance bookings of at least 6 months.
Unexpected Costs on the Road
Your quote might not cover road tolls, parking fees, or tips for the driver, as these can often vary per trip. Be prepared to pay these out-of-pocket while traveling, or ask your reservation representative if these can be included in your rental quote when you book. Multi-day trips may require you to pay for your driver’s hotel or other accommodations.
Tips on Saving Money
If you’re looking for a great deal on your Newport Beach charter bus rental, here are a few tips:
- Finalize your headcount before you book to ensure there’s enough space on the bus.
- Book a bus that’s already in your starting city.
- Reserve your charter bus at least 6 months in advance.
- Book a trip where you won’t need multiple days of overnight stays for your driver.
- Ask your venues about options for bus parking to see if free parking is available.
