Call Now: 580-400-3670What are the Factors Influencing Lawton Bus Rental Pricing?
Charter Bus Lawton offers flexible and quick pricing to get your group on the road from Lawton, Oklahoma! Your charter bus quote is determined by factors that are unique to your trip and itinerary. For the most part, these factors are determined by your travel date, duration and distance of the trip, the type and size of bus, location and availability, and specific amenities you might request during your trip.
Travel Date and Duration
The cost of a charter bus or minibus is determined by either daily or hourly rates, or by mileage. Smaller groups on shorter trips, like for hourly shuttle service to events, will be quoted by the hour. If you’re renting for a long-distance trip or multi-day event, your reservation specialist will calculate your rate based on days or miles traveled. And if your trip includes multiple days or a long distance on the road, you’ll also need to consider your driver. Federal regulations for the charter bus industry require that every driver is given 8 hours of rest for 10 hours of driving, so multi-day trips may require two or even three drivers which increases cost. Be sure to book a hotel for each driver during multi-day trips.
Time of Year to Rent a Bus
If you’re traveling in Lawton during the summer months (April, May, and June), chances are your charter bus quote may be higher than average because of higher demand. The summer months are considered “peak season” for charter bus rentals due to the abundance of school trips, proms, weddings, bachelor/ette parties, and other events. If you’re looking to have a more affordable trip, it would be beneficial to book during a time when demand is lower and supply is higher. During the colder months when there are fewer travel occasions and in the summer months before and after school breaks, you can expect a cheaper bus rental rate.
Finding Bus Availability
If your trip starts at a smaller location with limited transportation service, Lawton bus rental pricing could be higher than average. This is because in less-populated areas, demand may not be as high, so you will not have as many vehicles available. If you’re traveling from a small town outside of Lawton during peak season, book as early as possible to ensure that buses are available on your travel dates. You may also experience higher rates if you are looking for a last-minute bus rental. If possible, call us for a quote at least six months in advance. Our reservation specialists will work with you to find an available bus on your travel dates in Lawton.
Vehicle Type and Amenities
Your charter bus rental quote will depend on the type of bus you end up renting and what amenities you would like on board. Luxury amenities like premium sound systems and extra-plush seating will generally come at an additional charge. For shorter trips, like company events in Lawton, you’ll likely book an 18-passenger minibus, while longer excursions—such as a multi-day tour or a senior class trip from out-of-state—would be better suited for a spacious 56-passenger motorcoach. Larger buses generally have a higher daily rate. You may also pay more if you request a bus that isn’t in our network or that isn’t near your departure city, as companies will have to cover the gas costs for the driver to travel to your start location. If you book early enough in advance, this is less likely to happen.
Day of the Week
When you’re organizing a trip, it’s a good idea to check for local events on your travel date. If there’s a concert, festival, or major sporting event happening in your city during your trip, prices may be higher for rentals during those dates. This is also true for weekends! Demand for buses is generally highest on Friday and Saturday evenings, because of parties, dances, weddings, and more. If you can move your celebration or event to a weeknight or to a Sunday, you will probably pay less for your bus rental.
Time of Day to Book Your Trip
If you’re traveling during busy times or nights, like those mentioned above, you might also be charged a higher rate depending on the time of day you book your rental. Many limo and charter bus companies charge an extra fee for nighttime service, or after 6 p.m. This is because there’s a greater demand for transportation after dark, due to special events, weddings, dances and more. To avoid this charge, consider booking a daytime trip. Booking during daytime hours (especially on a weekday) means you could get a cheaper hourly or daily rate for your bus rental.
Amenities and Features
Each of the buses in our network includes amenities for your comfort and convenience such as cushioned seats, air conditioning or heat, overhead and/or undercarriage storage, WiFi and power outlets, TVs, a PA system, and radio. It also comes with the services of a driver. Larger charter bus rentals will include onboard restrooms. And if you want to book an ADA-accessible bus, we can find you one for no extra cost. You just need to let us know when you call!
What Else Should I Consider?
You will also want to plan how much you are tipping your bus driver, as well as any applicable road tolls and parking fees since they won’t be included in the initial quote. A driver tip is not required, but it’s good practice to tip 10% to 20% of the total cost for a job well done, especially if your trip has many stops.
Tips to Save on Your Bus Rental
If you are looking to save a few bucks while booking your bus rental, we have a few suggestions:
- Finalize all of your trip details, like your headcount and pick-up and drop-off points, before calling. This helps us ensure that we find the right-sized bus for your group and prevents you paying extra if you have to add more stops during your journey.
- Call well in advance! Book your charter bus at least six months before your trip.
- Book during the off-season to get the best possible rates on your Lawton bus rental.
- Coordinate any parking or loading needs for your driver. If possible, find an attraction near your hotel that provides free parking for large vehicles so your driver doesn’t need to keep driving the bus or find a parking spot every time your group travels.
- If your trip is multi-day or overnight, consider booking a hotel near your starting location and find a single hotel room for your driver.
