54 Passenger Charter Bus

Our 54-passenger charter bus fleet includes top models from Motor Coach Industries (MCI), Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA—specifically the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are the most trusted names in the motorcoach industry, known for their reliability, ride quality, and advanced features. Each model offers slightly different interior layouts and amenity packages, but all deliver the highest level of comfort and performance available. If you have a specific manufacturer or model preference, let us know when booking—we’ll match you with exactly the right vehicle for your needs.

Our 54-passenger charter buses come in a variety of exterior colors including classic white, black, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and even custom wraps for special events or branding purposes. White is the most common and widely available option, perfect for weddings, corporate events, and general transportation. Black and navy buses offer a more upscale look ideal for executive travel or formal occasions. Custom wraps are available upon request if you want to display a company logo, school colors, or advertising graphics along the entire length of the bus. Whatever your preference, we can provide a bus that matches the style and tone of your event.

Standard amenities on a 54-passenger charter bus include reclining seats with armrests and footrests, individual reading lights, climate-controlled HVAC, overhead parcel racks, underfloor luggage bays, onboard WiFi, power outlets and USB ports at each row, PA system, flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray player, HDMI inputs, Bluetooth-capable audio system, and a full restroom at mid-cabin or rear. Additional features include tray tables, cup holders, magazine nets, tinted windows, and advanced sound systems. Optional upgrades may include leather seating, hardwood-style flooring, seat-back tables, and enhanced lighting packages.

The cost to rent a 54-passenger charter bus in Minot typically ranges from $1,800 to $3,800 per day, $180 to $500+ per hour, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile. Exact pricing depends on several factors including the origin and destination of your trip, the total mileage, number of days, time of year, and specific amenities requested. Peak seasons such as spring sports tournaments, summer wedding season, and fall college events may see higher rates due to increased demand. Additional costs not included in the base quote may include parking fees at venues, tolls along the route, and hotel accommodations for the driver on overnight trips. Gratuity for the driver is included in your quote, but you will be responsible for any incidental expenses during the trip. For the most accurate and up-to-date pricing, it’s best to call our team with your exact trip itinerary or use our online quote tool for real-time estimates. We offer some of the most competitive and transparent rates in the industry.

The 54-passenger charter bus stands out as one of the largest and most versatile vehicles in our fleet, offering significantly more seating and storage capacity than smaller models like minibuses or 24–35-passenger midsize coaches. Compared to a 15- 35 passenger minibus, which is ideal for short trips and small groups, the 54-passenger coach provides full underfloor luggage bays, multiple onboard restrooms, and extensive entertainment options such as several flat-screen monitors, DVD/Blu-ray players, and full PA systems. While a 47–50-passenger coach shares many of the same amenities, the 54-passenger version adds extra rows of seating, increasing overall capacity without compromising comfort. This makes it the preferred choice for large-scale events, long-distance travel, and any situation where maximizing headcount and minimizing per-person cost is essential.

You should book a 54-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing, especially if your trip falls during peak seasons such as spring sports tournaments, summer wedding season, or major local events like the North Dakota State Fair. Larger buses are in high demand for big events and long-distance travel, so they tend to get reserved earlier than smaller vehicles. If you’re planning a trip during a busy time of year—such as a college football weekend, a multi-day conference, or a holiday period—it’s wise to secure your reservation as early as possible. Last-minute bookings may still be accommodated if there is availability, but selection will be more limited and prices may be higher. The farther in advance you book, the more options you’ll have in terms of bus features, colors, and exact floor plans.
