More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
Full-size charter buses in our network include widely trusted coach models from manufacturers like MCI, Prevost, and Van Hool, with seating configurations that run from 40 to 56 passengers depending on the layout. These coaches are built for high-capacity runs — think a 56-seat MCI J4500 with close to 600 cubic feet of underfloor luggage storage, or a Prevost H3-45 with panoramic frameless windows and deep undercarriage bays that swallow trombones, suitcases, and presentation equipment without anyone having to stack bags in an aisle. For groups heading from the French Quarter to a Saints game at Caesars Superdome, or traveling up I-10 toward Baton Rouge for a multi-day conference, a single charter bus keeps everyone in one vehicle for one predictable rate — no caravan, no stragglers, no parking scramble at the other end.

Amenities On Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
A full-size New Orleans charter bus comes equipped with high-back reclining seats, climate control, overhead parcel storage, a PA system, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays deep enough for convention materials, musical instruments, or enough tailgate supplies to carry your crew through a full Superdome pregame. WiFi and power outlets keep laptops charged on longer runs toward Hammond or Lafayette. Some models include TV monitors with DVD players and indirect LED lighting — useful for groups that want to screen a replay or hold a short briefing on the road.
ADA-accessible coaches with lift equipment are available; just mention that when you book so we can match you with the right bus from our network. The onboard restroom alone removes the biggest headache on any run over an hour — no exits off I-10, no stopping at a Metairie gas station, no delay.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in New Orleans?
A 40-56 passenger charter bus rental in New Orleans runs $158–$327+ per hour on weekdays and $162–$348+ per hour on weekends, with full-day rates landing in the $1,331–$2,841+ range. Where your quote falls within those windows depends on a handful of real variables: weekends cost more than weekdays, Mardi Gras and Jazz Fest season pushes rates toward the top of the range because demand on South Louisiana inventory spikes, and multi-day bookings for extended conference shuttles at the Morial Convention Center are priced differently than a single-day field trip out to the Honey Island Swamp. Distance factors in too — a round trip to Baton Rouge prices differently than a tight French Quarter loop.
Because we quote all-inclusive with no surprises, the fastest way to get your number is a quick call to 504-264-9423.
