FAQs

Q: How do you handle itinerary changes?

Generally, we can accommodate just about any change to your trip with enough notice. When changes involve moving up, moving back or postponing your trip, this is generally handled as a cancellation and the trip will need to be re-booked. If this is the case, Rent-A-Bus USA will use every effort to waive cancellation fees on re-booking as long as there is availability, we are using the same operator/partner and the total cost of your trip remains unchanged.

Q: Is a Mini Bus able to travel long distances?

Typically, most operators will not allow a minibus to travel over 100-150 miles outside of the city they operate in. Mini-buses are not built for long-distance travel which makes the ride less comfortable for passengers. We recommend going with a motorcoach for any trips that are longer in duration…oftentimes the price difference between a minibus and a motor coach isn’t that substantial, but the comfort difference is considerable.

Q: What if my trip runs longer than expected? What if it is shorter?

The cost of your trip is based on the itinerary that was provided to Rent-A-Bus USA at the time of booking. If there is additional time added to the trip, you will be responsible for covering the cost. If the trip winds up ending earlier than expected, there is no refund provided for the time that was not used.

Q: Do you have buses that provide accessibility options?

Yes. We absolutely have buses across the nation with ADA accessibility options. Please request that at the time that you are looking to book with Rent-A-Bus USA.

Q: Do I need to provide a hotel room for the driver(s) on charter/over-the-road trips?

Yes, typically it is the responsibility of the client to book a room for the driver(s). Often times a hotel will include a complimentary or discounted room for the driver(s) if you have a large group already booked at the hotel.

Q: Do your buses have air conditioning and A/V capabilities?

Yes, all of our buses have air conditioning and audio/visual capabilities. If the A/C unit is not functioning at the time, the client will be informed beforehand so they can make a change if desired. If you have special audio or video requirements, please notify us in advance.

Q: What type of deposit is required?

Deposit amounts vary according to the length of time in advance that the trip is booked. Most frequently a 30% deposit is required at the time of reservation with full payment due 1 month prior to charter. If you have specific questions, please just let us know and we would be happy to answer them for you.
