New Orleans Charter Bus Rental

More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
A 40-56 passenger charter bus is the right vehicle when your group is too large for a minibus but needs more than a party bus's floor plan can offer. The standard motorcoach configuration — forward-facing reclining seats in rows — gives every passenger their own space for a longer haul, whether that's the 80-mile run up I-10 to Baton Rouge for a Tiger game or a multi-day convention circuit between the Warehouse District and the airport. Undercarriage bays handle the luggage load that would bury a minibus, and onboard restrooms mean a straight shot from pickup to destination without pit stops along I-10.
For conventions at the Morial Convention Center, school travel, or corporate shuttles between multiple hotel blocks, the charter bus does the job cleanly.

Common Amenities Available on 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus Rentals
Charter buses in the network typically come with reclining seats, powerful climate control (which matters enormously in a New Orleans August), overhead storage bins for personal bags, and large undercarriage bays for checked luggage and equipment. Many coaches include WiFi, individual power outlets, and USB charging at every seat — useful on a long ride up to the Mississippi Gulf Coast or back from a late night in the French Quarter. Flat-panel monitors and PA systems are common for tour groups moving through the Garden District or school trips to the Audubon Zoo.
Onboard restrooms are standard on full-size coaches, which is a genuine relief on any run longer than an hour. Amenities vary by vehicle, so compare options when you pull up your quote.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in New Orleans?
Charter bus rental rates in New Orleans generally run $200–$350 per hour on weekdays and $200–$350 per hour on weekends, with full-day rates typically landing between $1,350 and $2,850. The spread comes down to a handful of real factors: how long you need the bus, how far it's traveling, and when you're going. A round-trip airport shuttle for a convention group on a Tuesday afternoon sits at a very different price point than a full-day run during Jazz Fest weekend in late April, when every vehicle in South Louisiana is spoken for and demand across the region spikes hard.
Those are example planning ranges — your actual quote moves with the date, the route, and the hours. Fill out the form or call 504-264-9422 and you can get a quote for your trip in about a minute.
