54 Passenger Charter Bus

Our 54-passenger charter bus fleet includes some of the most popular and reliable models in the industry, such as the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are all full-size, modern motorcoaches built for comfort, durability, and performance on long-distance or local routes. Each model offers advanced suspension systems for a smooth ride, powerful engines for highway cruising, and spacious interiors with seating layouts optimized for large groups. If you need a specific make or model for your trip—whether it’s matching a previous rental, meeting a branding requirement, or requesting a particular set of features—just let us know when you call. We’ll make sure you get exactly the bus you want, backed by the best service and support in the business.

Our 54-passenger charter buses are available in a wide range of colors to suit any group, event, or branding requirement—including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We can also provide custom exterior wraps or graphics if you want to display your company logo, school colors, or special event branding on the side of the bus. Just let us know what color or design you need when you request your quote, and we’ll match you with a vehicle that fits your exact specifications. With one of the largest and most versatile fleets in the region, Charter Bus Company La Habra makes it easy to get the perfect bus for any trip—any color, any time, anywhere.

Every 54-passenger charter bus comes standard with a full suite of amenities designed to keep passengers comfortable, connected, and entertained on trips of any length. The main cabin features high-back reclining seats with armrests and optional headrest covers, individual reading lights, and either fabric or vinyl upholstery depending on the trim level. Overhead parcel racks run the length of both aisles and double as storage for carry-on bags, backpacks, or jackets. Multiple flat-screen video monitors are mounted throughout the interior—either ceiling-mounted or integrated into the bulkheads—allowing groups to watch DVDs, stream content via HDMI input, or display presentations during corporate events. A PA system with a wired microphone at the front of the coach makes it easy for trip leaders to address the entire bus. Connectivity options include 110V power outlets at floor level, USB-A/USB-C charging ports at every row, and integrated Wi-Fi hardware that supports up to 50 simultaneous devices (data plan required). The rear of the bus includes a full-size restroom with a flushing toilet, stainless steel sink basin, and hands-free sanitizer dispenser. Climate control is managed by a rooftop HVAC unit with adjustable fan settings and digital temperature readout visible from the aisle. Optional upgrades include leatherette seating surfaces, simulated woodgrain flooring, color-changing LED accent lighting along the ceiling coves, and custom branding packages with exterior decals or full vinyl wraps.

A 54-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, depending on the specifics of your trip. Factors that affect the final price include the length of your trip (hours, days, or total mileage), the time of year (peak seasons like summer and holidays may be more expensive), and the exact pickup and drop-off locations (urban areas or locations far from major highways can increase costs). Additional charges may apply for tolls, parking fees, and driver lodging on overnight trips. Gratuity is included in your quote, but any special requests or optional upgrades may incur extra fees. For the most accurate pricing, contact Charter Bus Company La Habra directly with your trip details.

The 54-passenger charter bus is one of the largest and most versatile vehicles in our fleet, making it ideal for transporting big groups over long distances. Compared to smaller options like minibuses (which typically seat 18– 35 passengers), the 54-passenger coach offers significantly more seating capacity, better luggage storage (including undercarriage bays), and upgraded amenities such as onboard restrooms, multiple video monitors, and powerful HVAC systems. It’s perfect for moving sports teams, school groups, corporate event attendees, or wedding parties all in a single vehicle. While it’s slightly smaller than our largest 56–58-seat coaches, it still provides full-size comfort at a lower price point and is easier to maneuver and park in tight urban areas. If you need something even bigger, we can arrange multiple buses or recommend one of our 56–58-seat models.

We recommend booking your 54-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure availability and secure the best rates—especially if your trip falls during a busy travel period. In Southern California, peak demand typically coincides with spring and fall school schedules, major sporting events, convention season, and holiday weekends. Large events like the Rose Parade, Coachella, and Comic-Con can also impact regional bus availability. By reserving early, you’ll have access to the widest selection of vehicles and be able to lock in your preferred pickup times. Last-minute bookings are possible but may be subject to limited inventory and higher prices.
