Most modern charter buses in Jonesboro come standard with reclining seats, individual reading lights, climate control, overhead parcel racks, and either a single flat-screen monitor or multiple video screens throughout the cabin. Larger coaches typically include a PA system for group announcements, DVD/Blu-ray players, and one or more onboard restrooms. Many vehicles now offer Wi-Fi and 110V power outlets at each seat, while premium models may feature USB charging ports, leather upholstery, tray tables, and forward-facing seating arrangements for comfort during longer trips. Additional amenities can include tinted windows, window shades, luggage bays beneath the floor, and optional seating layouts for ADA accessibility or extra legroom.

Yes, most full-size charter buses (typically those seating 40 passengers or more) are equipped with a restroom located at the rear of the vehicle. The restroom is usually a half-bath with a toilet and hand sanitizer or a small sink. Smaller minibuses generally do not have onboard restrooms, but your driver can make restroom stops as needed.

Many newer charter buses come equipped with 110V power outlets or USB charging ports at each seat or in between pairs of seats. This amenity is increasingly common on both full-size coaches and larger minibuses, but it’s always best to confirm availability when booking.

Yes, Wi-Fi is available on most modern charter buses and larger minibuses. This amenity allows passengers to browse the web, check email, and use social media while on the road. Keep in mind that bandwidth may be limited in rural areas or during peak usage times, so streaming video or large downloads might be restricted. If Wi-Fi is essential for your trip, be sure to request it when booking your vehicle.

Yes, full-size charter buses offer ample luggage space with both undercarriage (below the floor) storage bays and overhead parcel racks inside the cabin. These exterior luggage compartments can accommodate large suitcases, equipment cases, and bulky items, while the interior racks are suitable for smaller bags and personal items. Minibuses typically have limited luggage space, with only interior storage available at the rear of the vehicle or in overhead racks. If your group has significant luggage or equipment, be sure to mention this when booking so we can recommend a vehicle with adequate storage capacity.

Our fleet includes minibuses that seat 18 to 28 passengers, mid-size buses for 30 to 40, and full-size motorcoaches that hold up to 56. We can also provide multiple vehicles for very large groups—perfect for big events at Arkansas State or multi-team sports travel.

Charter bus loading and parking in Jonesboro is typically done at larger venues, school campuses, hotel lots, or designated areas with sufficient space for oversized vehicles. Common locations include Arkansas State University’s First National Bank Arena parking lot, Tomlinson Stadium for athletic events, and major hotel properties with spacious lots. Downtown loading zones may be available on wider streets, but groups should coordinate with their venue or the City of Jonesboro for specific curbside access and short-term parking regulations. For longer-term parking, the ASU campus and some event venues can accommodate charter buses by prior arrangement. It’s important to avoid blocking fire lanes, driveways, or narrow residential streets, and always follow local signage and law enforcement instructions when staging a bus.

It’s best to book your charter bus as early as possible—ideally 3 to 6 months in advance for the best availability and pricing. Spring and fall are peak seasons due to school trips, sports events, and weddings, so advance booking is especially important during these times. Last-minute rentals are possible but may be more expensive and have limited vehicle options.
