You'll also receive a copy of your quote by text and email so you can easily share it with your school board or principal.

Does Pasadenashuttlebuscompany.com own the charter buses?

No, and that's the whole point! Pasadenashuttlebuscompany.com is a comparison website that connects you with one of the largest networks of independent bus companies in Pasadena and across California, so your school is never stuck with whatever a single local company has left in its lot through one of America's largest national booking platforms.

What amenities can we request for a school field trip bus?

You can compare charter buses and minibuses equipped with seat belts, reclining seats, strong air conditioning, WiFi, individual power outlets, flatscreen TVs with DVD players, PA systems for chaperone announcements, overhead racks for backpacks, and onboard restrooms! Party buses for proms and formals also feature LED party lighting, wraparound seating, and Bluetooth sound systems.

Can we book multiple buses or last-minute transportation for a big school event?

Yes, absolutely! Because you're tapping into a massive statewide network of transportation providers rather than one small fleet, you can easily reserve a single 18-passenger minibus for an academic decathlon team or 10+ full-size motorcoaches for an entire graduating class. Same-day and last-minute bus rentals are also available when playoff schedules or field trip plans come together fast!

What is included in our school charter bus rental quote, and how do we confirm our stops?

Your online quote covers the cost of your vehicle and your driver's time based on the hourly, one-way, round-trip, or multi-day package you select. Outside expenses like venue bus parking fees at the Rose Bowl, highway tolls, or overnight driver hotel rooms for multi-day trips are paid separately so there are never any hidden fees. After you book online through the national booking platform, a confirmation department will call you directly to verify every pickup time, school bell schedule, and drop-off zone on your itinerary.
