Several factors influence the cost of your West Hartford charter bus rental:

• Vehicle Type: Larger buses (50–56 passengers) cost more than minibuses (18–35 passengers). Specialty/luxury coaches are the most expensive.
• Trip Duration: Rentals are billed hourly, daily, or by mileage. Longer trips (multi-day or out-of-state) increase the total cost.
• Mileage: The farther you travel, the higher the price. Local shuttles within West Hartford are cheaper than trips to NYC or Boston.
• Season/Demand: Spring and fall are peak seasons due to school trips, sports, and weddings. Summer and winter rates may be lower.
• Pickup Location: If your trip starts far from the bus depot (e.g., rural Hartford County), you’ll pay extra for “deadhead” mileage.
• Itinerary Complexity: Multiple stops, tight schedules, or city-center drop-offs (Hartford, New Haven) can raise the price.
• Additional Fees: Tolls (I-84, I-91), parking (XL Center, UConn), and driver lodging (for overnight trips) are billed separately.
• Fuel Prices: Rising fuel costs may result in a fuel surcharge.
