Most modern charter buses in Rockville come standard with reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, luggage bays, and a PA system. Larger buses (40+ seats) typically include a restroom, flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, Wi-Fi, and 110V/USB power outlets at each seat. Optional upgrades include leather upholstery, forward-facing tables, HDMI inputs, Bluetooth audio, and tinted windows. Minibuses (15–35 seats) offer similar amenities but may lack a restroom or video screens. Sprinter vans (10–15 seats) have basic seating, A/C, and limited luggage space but can be upgraded with Wi-Fi and USB ports. Full-size coaches (up to 56 seats) have the most amenities, including multiple video screens, strong Wi-Fi, reclining seats with footrests, and ample luggage space.

Yes, most full-size charter buses (40–56 passengers) have a restroom located at the rear of the coach. The restroom is equipped with a toilet, hand sanitizer, and sometimes a small sink. It’s designed for emergency use and short trips. For longer trips, your driver can schedule rest stops at service plazas or gas stations. Minibuses (15–35 passengers) typically do not have a restroom due to space constraints. If a restroom is important for your group, request a full-size coach or ask specifically for a bus with a lavatory when booking. Additional options include upgraded restrooms with better ventilation and larger facilities on newer coaches.

Yes, most newer charter buses have 110V power outlets and/or USB charging ports at each seat. Older models may only have outlets near the front or rear of the bus. Full-size coaches (40–56 passengers) almost always have power outlets. Minibuses (15–35 passengers) may have fewer outlets or just USB ports. If keeping devices charged is important, request a bus with outlets at every seat. You can also ask for a vehicle with both AC outlets and USB-A/C ports for maximum compatibility.

Yes, most modern charter buses offer onboard Wi-Fi. The connection is suitable for email, web browsing, and social media, but streaming video or large downloads may be restricted to conserve bandwidth. If reliable Wi-Fi is important for your group, request a bus with upgraded internet service. Some coaches offer 4G/5G connectivity with stronger signal boosters for better coverage in rural areas. Full-size coaches typically have better Wi-Fi than smaller minibuses due to larger antennas and dedicated equipment.

Yes, full-size charter buses have spacious undercarriage luggage bays that can hold large suitcases, equipment cases, or musical instruments. Overhead parcel racks inside the cabin are available for carry-on bags, backpacks, and smaller items. Minibuses have limited luggage space—usually just an interior rear cargo area or small exterior compartment. If your group has lots of baggage, request a full-size coach or specify your luggage requirements when booking. Sports teams, bands, and airport travelers should mention oversized or bulky items in advance. Full-size coaches can accommodate up to two bags per passenger plus carry-ons.

Full-size charter buses typically seat 50 to 56 passengers. Common configurations include 47, 50, 54, or 56 seats. Minibuses can accommodate anywhere from 15 to 35 passengers, depending on the model.

Many schools, business parks, and event venues also have designated areas for charter bus parking.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if your trip is during the busy spring or fall seasons. Last-minute rentals are possible, but availability may be limited and rates can be higher.
