Call Now: 763-250-6460What are the Factors Influencing Brooklyn Park Bus Rental Pricing?
Charter Bus Brooklyn Park works with charter bus companies across Minnesota, and each provider has different rates. But pricing is generally determined by whether your group is quoted by the day, hour, or mile based on what kind of trip you are looking to plan. Shorter trips are typically calculated by the hour, while multi-day trips may be quoted by the day.
How Long is Your Trip?
Brooklyn Park charter bus rentals are priced by the hour, day, or mileage, depending on your specific trip plan. Single trips within Brooklyn Park that last only a few hours will be quoted by the hour. Longer journeys or events that take multiple days to complete—such as school trips spanning several days, a sports tournament taking place out of state, or a corporate outing over the weekend—will likely be quoted by the day.
If your trip won’t take you too far out of Brooklyn Park but your group needs transport for multiple days in a row (like a convention shuttle or wedding transportation), your rate will also probably be based on daily charges.
Longer-distance trips spanning a greater distance where you won’t stay in one place too long may be charged by mileage, depending on the bus rental company. When you call 763-250-6460 to book a charter bus in Brooklyn Park with Charter Bus Brooklyn Park, ask about our pricing and we will provide you with an accurate quote.
Pro Tip: Along with your bus rental costs, don’t forget to budget for road tolls, parking permits, hotel costs for your driver, and tickets to any activities and venues on your itinerary.
What Time of Year are You Traveling?
Another factor to keep in mind when planning your trip is the time of the year you are traveling, as certain times can be more costly due to increased demand for charter buses. The months of April, May, June, September, and October tend to see the most bookings for charter bus rentals, and in turn, the least availability. This is due to a few reasons: graduations, summer breaks, prom and homecoming seasons, weddings, and other events, which increase the cost of a charter bus rental.
Major events that take place across the state (such as the Minnesota State Fair, or major league gamedays for the Twins, Timberwolves, or Wild) also can cause pricing and availability to change.
We also recommend booking your bus as early as possible in order to ensure the most availability and get the best price possible. It also helps to have your itinerary completely finalized when you call, so you won’t be subjected to additional charges for unexpected mileage.
Where Are You Headed?
For groups whose travel itinerary starts in an area with low availability—such as smaller towns in the outskirts of Minnesota— you may see an increase in pricing and lower availability. This is especially true if you are booking a last-minute bus rental.
You also may be charged extra fees based on where you need to be picked up and dropped off if your driver has to travel a long distance. Mileage without any passengers on board is referred to as deadhead, which gets added to your trip costs.
Insider Tip: You have plenty of options for finding charter buses in your area thanks to Charter Bus Brooklyn Park’s statewide charter bus network, which makes it easy to reduce deadhead mileage. The best way to minimize deadhead mileage is by finding a charter bus company near your pick up location or drop off location, and we can help you do just that!
Which Bus Best Suits Your Group?
Perhaps the biggest factor influencing your charter bus rental cost is what kind of bus you need and what kinds of amenities you are looking for. The types of buses in our network range from sprinter vans for smaller groups to charter bus rentals that seat 56 passengers. Regardless of how many people will need seats on your bus rental, we have tons of different options available for you in our network! Just use our super easy online quote form to see all the pricing and availability of our reservation specialist will help you find the perfect match. When you give us a call at 763-250-6460, let your reservation specialist know if you have a specific bus in mind, or give them a headcount and list of travel needs and they will work our magic!
Want to take the party on the road? A smaller party bus seats up to 20 people, while some of the bigger, more luxurious party buses in our network have wraparound leather seats, and bars for a premium on-the-road experience. Newer party buses will also offer amenities like Smart TVs, and karaoke machines, and we even have options to get you a party bus with onboard restroom facilities, a must-have for longer trips or bigger parties.
Need a charter bus in Brooklyn Park for a school field trip or private tour? You can take advantage of a sleek, standard charter bus with tons of amenities to make your road trip fun and memorable. If your passengers want free onboard WiFi, TV monitors and a DVD player to watch movies, and reclining seats so you can rest your weary legs, all you need to do is ask. Your charter bus will also have an overhead storage and undercarriage space for luggage and other belongings.
What Day of the Week Are You Booking?
Believe it or not, the day of the week can also have an effect on your charter bus rental pricing. Weekend rentals (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) have a higher demand due to events like weddings, birthday parties, and soirees, so if you can, try to reschedule your trip to a weekday, as you’ll likely pay less if your event takes place on a Tuesday or Wednesday when there isn’t as much demand. On Friday and Saturday nights, many bus companies also increase the required minimum number of rental hours to meet demand. (Please note that this isn’t always the case for everyone—if your group needs a ride to or from an airport or a sporting event, you aren’t exactly able to change the time or day.)
Insider Tip: Spring high school proms are one of the highest-demand events for buses in the U.S.—so if your event happens to be around this time, you’ll want to start your charter bus search at least six months in advance to ensure the highest availability.
What Time of Day is Your Trip?
Just like with the day of the week, the time of day also has a direct correlation to the price point of your charter bus rental, because, of course, charter buses and party buses are more popular at night. Companies increase hourly rates to meet that demand, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings. Some bus companies may offer discounted weekday rates during the daytime, and if your event can happen earlier or later in the day, ask about any potential discounts for traveling in the mornings or afternoons.
Amenities and Features to Make the Most Out of Your Ride
Charter and party buses offer a variety of amenities that you can request for your passengers to stay entertained, comfortable, and relaxed, and at no extra cost for standard features. Request features like WiFi, reclining seats, an onboard restroom, extra legroom, and PA system. Certain amenities, such as TVs, DVD players, and additional electronic devices may come at an additional cost. Your reservation specialist will tell you about what extra amenities they can provide you when you give us a call with your itinerary. And if you want to book an ADA-compliant charter bus rental, we can help you with that too. Charter Bus Brooklyn Park is committed to having inclusive travel and helping all passengers get where they need to be, no matter their specific mobility needs.
Insider tip: Some providers offer discounts if you prepay or book your bus at least six months in advance. Don’t forget to ask your Charter Bus Brooklyn Park representative about additional ways to save!
Calculating Extra Costs
After receiving a charter bus rental quote, make sure you know what is and isn’t included in your total cost. Be aware that things like road tolls and parking fees aren’t usually included, so plan to pay those out of pocket or ask your representative if those can be included. If you are doing a multi-day trip, then you are also responsible for paying for the driver’s lodging. The bus drivers we work with are required to get eight hours of sleep during a 24-hour period, and fifteen hours if the driver will not be driving the bus at any point.
You may also want to include gratuity in your budget. If you and your passengers enjoyed their time with the driver, a tip of 10-20% of your total rental cost is recommended. You can have the tip added on to your charter bus rental bill, or pay the driver in cash. In many cases, a personal cash tip for your driver is appreciated.
Tips to Keep Costs Low
Want to avoid overpaying when renting a charter bus in Brooklyn Park? Here are some tips to get the most value out of your bus:
Have a finalized passenger count before you book. Adding passengers later could lead to needing a larger charter bus, which would increase your cost. Taking passengers off your reservation could mean you overpaid for a bus that’s too large. Make sure to reserve a bus that comfortably fits everyone in your group so you’re not overspending on extra space.
Check what your hotel offers! If you book a hotel room that includes free parking, you can save money on parking your bus. If your hotel does charge for parking but can’t fit your charter bus, try to find a venue nearby with oversized vehicle parking options.
Call early to ensure the most availability and to have the most opportunities to save. Some providers offer discounts if you book your bus at least six months ahead of your trip!
