Call Now: 412-465-3474What Influences Bus Pricing in Pittsburgh?
There are multiple factors that can influence charter bus and party bus rental pricing in Pittsburgh, and our goal is to provide you with transparent and affordable pricing. We’ll provide you with a customized price quote tailored to your travel needs, and you’ll also be able to customize your amenities and pick the best type of bus.
How Long and Far is Your Trip?
Pittsburgh bus rental rates are typically calculated by the hour, day, or mileage, depending on the occasion and travel distance of your trip. Short trips around Pittsburgh will likely be charged by the hour. Most charter bus companies in Pittsburgh have a minimum number of rental hours. If your trip requires less time than the minimum number of hours, give your Charter Bus Pittsburgh rental expert a call to figure out the logistics. We’re prepared to work around every customer’s unique travel needs.
If your group trip includes transportation across multiple days, such as a week-long event like a convention or a multi-day sports tournament, you’ll probably be charged a daily rate. Even if you aren’t traveling far distances from Pittsburgh, your bus rental may still be charged per day if you require shuttle services for multiple days in a row.
For long-distance trips, pricing is usually based on a per-mile rate. Have your itinerary ready to go, complete with addresses for every pick-up and drop-off location. We’ll make sure our quotes are fully tailored to your trip logistics.
Seasonality
Prices for Pittsburgh bus rentals tend to increase from April to June. These months are peak season for formal events like proms and weddings, as well as family-friendly outings such as school field trips. Major events in the city can also raise bus rental prices, along with limited availability. Before you book a bus rental service, check Pittsburgh’s event calendar and sports schedules. If your event falls around the same time as a Taylor Swift concert or Steelers gameday, you may have a harder time finding an available and affordable bus.
Starting Location and Availability
If you need a bus rental in a low-availability area, such as a sparsely populated rural area outside of Pittsburgh, pricing can rise. Additionally, if you are booking last minute from an area like this, it’s also possible that rates will increase slightly. If your driver has to drive a bus for several hours or miles to reach your location from their base, that can also cause an additional charge. This is commonly referred to as “deadhead mileage.”
To avoid any deadhead mileage charges, rent a bus that operates locally or is already stationed where your group trip or event is starting.
Bus Type and Size
It should be no surprise that prices vary from vehicle to vehicle in Charter Bus Pittsburgh’s network. Different bus models have different rates depending on factors like passenger capacity and amenities. For example, a smaller party bus is less expensive than a larger or luxury party bus rental. Luxury buses with leather-style interiors, custom surround sound stereos, and more can increase the cost, while an older charter bus or minibus without onboard WiFi will probably have lower hourly and daily rates than a modern motorcoach. You’ll also see buses for 15 passengers to those for 56 passengers. And for events like a tailgate, bachelor(ette) parties or proms, then definitely check out our party bus rentals which hold anywhere from 10- 50 passengers! Whatever your group transportation needs are, Charter Bus Pittsburgh will be your go-to for any special occasion or event.
What Day Are You Traveling?
Bus rental rates in Pittsburgh will vary according to what day of the week your trip or event is. Most charter bus companies have the same pricing for each of the weekdays (Monday through Thursday) and separate, higher rates for weekend rentals (Friday, Saturday, Sunday). There will also be an increased rate and hourly minimums on holidays when many people are off work or school and have parties planned like for New Year’s or St. Patrick’s Day. Additionally, during prom season from April to June, we recommend booking even farther out at least 9-12 months, to secure the best possible prices.
Time of Day
Most of the time, daytime rates for party bus and charter bus rentals in Pittsburgh (between 9 AM and 6 PM) will have a slightly lower hourly rate than those rented after dark. In addition, charter bus and party bus companies are likely to lower their minimum number of required hours when there’s less competition for vehicles. If your group trip can be arranged on days other than Friday, Saturday or Sunday, it’s possible your rental provider will offer special discounted weekday rates.
Amenity Requests
Charter bus rentals in our network usually include modern amenities to make any trip in Pittsburgh as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. WiFi, plush seats, overhead bins for luggage, and even onboard restrooms come standard with most vehicles. However, buses and bus companies vary in their available amenities. Call a reservation specialist if you need something specific, and we’ll do our best to fulfill those needs.
Costs and Other Charges
Your initial quote from Charter Bus Pittsburgh is designed to make your pricing experience as transparent as possible and is calculated from the information you provide when you call and speak with a representative.
