- Larger groups are often split into multiple buses for comfort, timing, or multiple pick-up locations.
Our team helps determine the best setup based on your group size and itinerary.

Group transportation can be arranged for small and large groups, depending on vehicle availability and trip details. Smaller groups often use minibuses, while larger groups use full-size charter buses.
Can the bus make multiple stops or wait for the group?
Yes, group transportation can include multiple pick-up and drop-off locations, as well as wait time between stops. Routes and schedules are planned based on your itinerary. Call +1 (773) 570-1111 or contact us to discuss your route.
When should I book group transportation?
Group transportation is typically booked once your date and approximate group size are known. Many callers reach out early to secure availability for popular dates, while others contact us closer to their event to check options.
