Comfortable Amenities for Long-distance Travel
Long-distance travel is a fact of life for many government and military groups, whether it's a cross-state deployment to Fort Custer, a regional conference in Chicago, or a federal assignment in Washington, D.C. Unlike cramped vans or pool cars, our charter buses are built for comfort on the open road. Passengers can stretch out in reclining seats, stay connected with onboard Wi-Fi and power outlets, and even catch up on paperwork at fold-down tray tables. Restroom-equipped models reduce the need for unscheduled stops, helping you maintain a tight timetable over hundreds of miles. Additional amenities like DVD players and PA systems make it easy to share briefings or entertainment en route. When your next mission takes you beyond city limits, upgrade your transportation to a vehicle that keeps everyone rested, focused, and ready for action.
