Several factors influence the final price of your shuttle bus rental, including the number of passengers, type of vehicle selected (shuttle bus, minibus, party bus, or coach bus), duration of the rental (hours/days), total mileage, and time of year. Peak demand periods like spring break, summer weekends, and major events can also impact availability and rates. Additional expenses such as tolls, parking fees, and driver accommodations (for overnight trips) are not included in the base rate and must be paid separately.

Your quote includes the base rental fee for the vehicle and driver. It does NOT include gratuity (typically 10–20%), tolls, parking, or driver lodging for multi-day trips. Those costs will either be added to your bill or must be paid directly during the trip. You’ll receive a full breakdown before signing your contract.

We recommend booking your Pittsburgh bus rental at least 4–6 weeks in advance to ensure availability and lock in the best rates. If your trip falls during a busy period—such as a Steelers or Penguins game, a major concert, or a university move-in weekend—you should reserve your vehicle even earlier, ideally 2–3 months ahead of time. Last-minute bookings are possible if we have vehicles available, but selection may be limited and prices may be higher due to increased demand.

Pittsburgh Shuttle Bus Rentals offers 18-, 20-, 25-, and 56-passenger buses only. The 18-, 20-, and 25-passenger models are mid-size shuttle buses ideal for smaller groups, while the 56-passenger model is a full-size coach bus suitable for large events, school trips, or corporate transportation. All vehicles come with forward-facing seats and space for carry-on bags; larger models include underfloor luggage compartments.

Amenities vary by vehicle but may include cushioned seats, air conditioning, PA system, overhead storage, and rear luggage area. Larger buses (25- and 56-passenger) can be upgraded with reclining seats, video monitors, WiFi, power outlets, USB ports, and restrooms.
