40-56 Passenger Charter Bus Rental
Got a wedding block, a convention contingent, or a whole krewe headed downtown? When the headcount climbs past 40, a 40-56 passenger charter bus is the only ride that keeps everyone together. We'll bring one big coach to your hotel on Canal Street, load the full group at once, and roll straight to the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center (900 Convention Center Blvd, New Orleans, LA 70130) or the French Quarter without splitting your crew across four rideshares.
A New Orleans charter bus rental this size handles the airport run, the rehearsal dinner, and the second-line route on the same day. You tell us the stops. We handle the streets, the loading zones, and the timing.

More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
This is the full-size motorcoach — the workhorse that moves marching bands, corporate offsites, and reunion groups in one shot. At up to 56 passengers, it's built for distance and headcount, with high seatbacks, overhead bins, and undercarriage bays deep enough to swallow convention luggage and a weekend's worth of suitcases. That cargo space is why we point big wedding parties and Mardi Gras groups to this bus instead of two minibuses.
One vehicle, one loading zone, one timeline. For a run out to a plantation along the River Road, or a haul up I-10 to Baton Rouge, the charter bus is the right pick. A New Orleans charter bus also clears the city's oversized-vehicle routes that smaller party buses and vans simply weren't sized for.

Amenities On Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
The cabin is climate-controlled top to bottom — a real mercy in August, when the Gulf humidity turns a sidewalk into a sauna. You get plush reclining seats, tinted windows, and onboard restrooms, so a long ride to City Park (1 Palm Dr, New Orleans, LA 70124) or out to a swamp tour doesn't mean lining up at a gas station. Overhead reading lights and power outlets keep the corporate crowd working between stops.
Want sound for the ride home from a Saints game? Many coaches carry an aux hookup and a PA mic for the toast. Climate control, real seats, a restroom onboard — that's what a 56 passenger charter bus rental in New Orleans gets your group.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in New Orleans?
A New Orleans charter bus rental this size runs $158 to $327+ per hour on weekdays and $162 to $348+ per hour on weekends, with full-day bookings landing between $1,331 and $2,841+. Where your quote falls inside those ranges comes down to a handful of things: how many hours you book, what day of the week you ride, the season, the distance covered, and how big the group is. A Tuesday airport shuttle sits near the floor.
A Saturday during Jazz Fest in late April, or a Mardi Gras weekend with street closures rerouting the whole coach, pushes toward the top. Longer mileage out to Baton Rouge or the North Shore adds to it too. Tell us the date and the stops and we'll pin down an exact number.
