US Coachways, a Staten Island, New York based charter bus rental company, recently discussed their San Francisco bus rental services and the benefits that they offer to customers. The company states that groups can save time and money by chartering a bus as opposed to flying to their destination or taking personal vehicles.
Mark Telmany, CEO says, “Chartering a bus offers a number of benefits, including price, which can make or break a group trip.”
Telmany says that for many groups, cost is a main concern. Parents of children who have taken school trips know that these trips can often be costly. Telmany says that for those traveling to San Francisco from other areas in the nation, the cost of an airline ticket alone can be staggering.
“Not to mention that if someone is sending a child on a school trip, they want to know that their child is not going to be inadvertently left at an airport somewhere,” Telmany adds. “Plus, groups have the added assurance that the entire group will always be together. And if cost is an issue, we offer an online tool that will enable you to calculate your price to determine just how much can be saved by chartering a bus as opposed to flying.”
Telmany says that other advantages include the ability to keep the group together and to be dropped off and picked up at each destination. When chartering a bus, groups do not have to worry about finding adequate parking at various destinations. The bus driver will take care of all of the parking and getting the group to all of their destinations on time.
Telmany adds, “We have heard horror stories of groups missing vital functions that they have paid for because they missed the time when they were supposed to be there. For instance, if someone books a ferry ride to see the Statue of Liberty and they miss their scheduled ferry, they would have to pay extra for another round. Imagine having to do that with an entire group of people.”
Telmany states that chartering a bus is also more environmentally friendly than other means of travel, and that the company offers a number of bus sizes to accommodate any group size. They have an entire fleet of buses that are available, including their popular mini bus which is perfect for smaller groups. US Coachways has been providing bus charters for a number of years and for a variety of purposes including weddings, family reunions, school or church groups, corporate trips and more. The company partners with a number of vendors to ensure that travelers get the travel arrangements that perfectly fit the needs of their group.
Telmany adds that all of the buses that they use are regularly inspected and comply with all DOT regulations. US Coachways started in 1983 as a small charter bus transporting people to and from New York City. Since that time, the company has grown to now have services in virtually every major city in the United States, including many in California such as Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Telmany says that any group planning to visit San Francisco can visit the company on their website to access the trip calculator which shows how much the group can save by chartering a bus as opposed to flying the group. He adds that when calculating the cost of taking private vehicles, groups should account for the additional fuel for each of those vehicles, as well as the cost of parking at a number of destinations in San Francisco.
