56 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Kenner offers 56-passenger charter buses from the most trusted and reliable brands in the industry, including the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are the same models used by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, and major universities because they’re built to handle long-distance travel with maximum comfort and durability. Each bus is equipped with either a Detroit Diesel, Cummins, or Volvo engine paired with an Allison automatic transmission for smooth performance on highways and city streets alike. The interiors feature high-back reclining seats upholstered in either cloth or vinyl, multiple video monitors, a full PA system, and a restroom located at the rear of the coach. When you book with Charter Bus Company Kenner, you’re getting a best-in-class vehicle backed by a company that sets the standard for customer service in the charter bus industry.

Our 56-passenger charter buses are available in a variety of exterior colors to suit any event or branding requirement, including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. For corporate clients, schools, or special events needing a customized look, we also offer full or partial custom wraps with your logo, colors, or artwork. The interior color schemes are designed to complement the exterior, with options ranging from neutral tones to more vibrant accents depending on the model. If you have a specific color request or need a custom wrap, just let us know when you book and we’ll make sure your bus looks exactly how you want it.

Every 56-passenger charter bus comes standard with high-back reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, and either vinyl or cloth upholstery depending on model and customer preference. Multiple flat-screen monitors (up to six on larger models), DVD/Blu-ray players, HDMI input for laptops or game consoles, and a full PA system with wireless microphone are included. Each row has 110V and USB-A/C outlets, armrests, footrests, and wraparound parcel racks above the seats. There’s a spacious restroom mid-cabin with hands-free flushing and stainless sink, plus free onboard Wi-Fi supported by a roof-mounted cellular antenna. Optional upgrades include leatherette seating, wood-look flooring, custom headrest covers, exterior graphics, and upgraded sound systems—just ask when you get your quote.

A 56-passenger charter bus rental typically costs between $180 and $500+ per hour, $1,800 to $3,800 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile. The final price depends on several factors, including the length and duration of your trip, the time of year, and current availability. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver accommodations for overnight trips are not included in the base rate and will be added to your final bill. To get an exact quote for your trip, contact our office directly with your itinerary and we’ll provide a detailed estimate that includes all applicable charges.

The 56-passenger charter bus is the largest and most versatile vehicle in our fleet, making it ideal for transporting big groups over long distances. Compared to smaller options like minibuses or sprinter vans, this full-size coach offers significantly more seating, storage space, and onboard amenities. It’s the best choice for large-scale events such as corporate conventions, sporting events, and multi-day tours. While it may be less maneuverable in tight urban areas compared to smaller vehicles, its capacity and comfort make it the preferred option for any trip where moving a lot of people efficiently is the top priority. If you need something smaller, we also offer minibuses and sprinter vans that are better suited for short-distance travel and smaller groups.

We recommend booking your 56-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best rates. This is especially important during peak travel seasons, such as spring and summer, when demand for charter buses is highest due to school trips, weddings, and corporate events. In Kenner, local events like Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, and major sporting events can also impact availability, so it’s best to reserve your bus as early as possible. If you have a last-minute trip, we can still help you get you a bus, but your options may be more limited and prices may be higher. Contact our office as soon as you have your travel dates to get the booking process started.
