Charter Bus Company Methuen offers 55-passenger charter buses in a wide range of colors to suit any occasion or branding requirement. Standard options include black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We also provide custom wraps for corporate clients, sports teams, or special events who want to display logos, advertisements, or unique graphics on the exterior of the bus.

Standard amenities on our 55-passenger charter buses include reclining seats with armrests and footrests, individual reading lights, climate-controlled air conditioning, and large tinted windows for natural light and privacy. Entertainment features consist of multiple flat-screen monitors, a DVD/Blu-ray player, and an audio system with PA microphone. Connectivity options include free WiFi, 110V power outlets, and USB charging ports at each row. There is an onboard restroom located at the rear of the coach, as well as ample luggage storage both under the floor and in overhead compartments. Additional features such as tray tables, cup holders, and magazine nets are available depending on the specific model.

The price of a 55-passenger charter bus rental depends on several variables, including the length of the trip, distance traveled, time of year, and pickup location. Buses are typically priced by the hour ($180–$500+), by the day ($1,800–$3,800), or by the mile ($6.00–$9.95), with a minimum booking requirement that varies by region. Additional costs may include tolls, parking fees, and a hotel room for the driver on overnight trips. Gratuity is included in your quote, but tips are appreciated for exceptional service. Peak seasons such as spring and fall tend to be more expensive due to high demand from school groups and holiday travelers. For an exact quote, contact our office with your itinerary details.

A 55-passenger charter bus offers the largest seating capacity in our fleet, making it ideal for transporting big groups efficiently and cost-effectively. Compared to smaller minibuses or sprinter vans, this vehicle provides significantly more space for both passengers and luggage, as well as a wider array of onboard amenities. While it may be less maneuverable on narrow streets than a 15- or 28-passenger option, it excels on highways and long-distance routes where comfort and storage are paramount. Groups that do not require full 55-person seating might consider a mid-size coach for similar features at a lower price point. Ultimately, the 55-passenger bus is best suited for situations where maximum capacity and full-service amenities are required.

We recommend booking your 55-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best possible rate. This is especially important during peak travel periods such as spring break, graduation season, and major sporting events when demand for large-capacity vehicles is highest. Last-minute reservations can sometimes be accommodated, but selection may be limited and prices will likely be higher. Once you have confirmed your trip details, contact us as soon as possible to lock in your reservation with a signed contract and deposit.
