Motor Coach Charter for Thirty Eight

Reclining high back seats and luggage bays underneath, for the point where a guest list has outgrown every bus we own.

What this is

When the guest list outgrows the buses

A coach is a different kind of vehicle from a party bus, and the difference is what the journey is for. Rows of high back reclining seats facing forwards, climate control, and bays underneath deep enough for thirty eight people's overnight bags. It is what moves a wedding block from the hotel to the venue and back, a company from the office to an offsite, a team to a fixture, or a group up into the mountains and home again the same night.

The cabin of a full size motor coach seen from mid aisle, rows of high backed reclining seats running away to the far end with about fourteen passengers in their twenties to seventies turned talking across the aisle, a man in a grey suit standing to slide a weekend bag into the full length overhead rack, rain beading on the panoramic side windows.
The view out through the open door and lit boarding steps of a motor coach at night, four wedding guests in their sixties and seventies talking on wet brick outside a lit brick mill venue, a pair of blush heels set down on the ground beside one woman in a long dark gown.

The wedding shuttle

Guests who are driven do not leave early to beat the traffic

Couples book the coach for the last hour of the night rather than the first. A shuttle running on a published loop means nobody has to nominate a driver, nobody is watching what they drink, and nobody quietly leaves at nine so they can get home. It changes the shape of the evening more than anything else on the transport line of the budget.

How it runs

What a coach booking needs that a car booking does not

Larger vehicles need decisions made earlier. These are the three that matter.

01

Check the vehicle can reach the venue

A coach needs somewhere to turn and somewhere to stand. Send us the venue address early and we will look at the approach before the day rather than on it.

02

Decide shuttle loops or one run

A continuous loop between hotel and venue and a single timed transfer are different bookings. Tell us which shape the day is and we will build the timings around it.

03

Count the luggage for overnight trips

The bays underneath are deep, and they are still finite. For anything with an overnight stay, give us a bag count with the passenger count.

One coach, or a string of party buses?

The centre aisle of a full size motor coach, rows of high backed reclining seats and full length overhead parcel racks running away toward the front of the cabin.

The coach

  • Thirty eight forward facing reclining seats.
  • Luggage bays under the floor, so bags are not on laps.
  • Built for distance, which is what a long transfer actually needs.
  • One vehicle, one arrival, one set of timings.

Party buses

  • Wraparound benches, so the group faces each other.
  • Sound and lighting, because the ride is part of the night.
  • Better for a celebration than for a two hour transfer.
  • Ten, twenty two or fifty at a time.

Questions

What people ask about the motor coach

How many people does the coach seat?

Thirty eight, in reclining high back seats. Above that we run multiple vehicles on the same timings, which is common for a large wedding block.

Is there luggage space?

Yes. The bays sit beneath the passenger deck, which is the main reason to choose a coach over a bus for anything involving an airport or an overnight stay.

Can you run a shuttle loop all evening?

That is the most common wedding booking we take on this vehicle. We agree a loop and a set of departure times in advance, publish them to your guests, and run them until the last one.

How far will the coach travel?

Anywhere with a road, and back. Day trips into the mountains, sports fixtures, corporate offsites and long runs to New York or beyond are all normal work for it. Send the itinerary and we will quote the day.
