More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
A 40-56 passenger charter bus is the largest vehicle category available through this network — a full-size motorcoach built to handle the longest runs and the biggest groups without a second thought. When a company is shuttling 200 employees in rotating waves between Canal Street hotels and the Convention Center on Tchoupitoulas Street, or a school needs to move an entire grade to the Audubon Zoo (6500 Magazine St, New Orleans, LA 70118) and back, one or two of these handles it cleanly. They're the right call any time the group is too large for a minibus and the itinerary covers serious ground — a round trip to Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, a multi-day conference shuttle circuit, or a cruise group transfer straight to the Port of New Orleans.

Common Amenities Available on 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus Rentals
Charter buses in this size range are built for distance and comfort in equal measure. Most come with reclining seats, individual overhead reading lights, climate control, and a PA system — useful when a tour coordinator needs to brief 50 guests at once without shouting over I-10 traffic. Undercarriage luggage bays are standard, which matters enormously for convention groups hauling presentation materials or cruise passengers rolling full suitcases down to the Julia Street Cruise Terminal.
Onboard restrooms keep long runs — like a five-hour roundtrip to the Death Valley game in Baton Rouge — moving without unnecessary pit stops. Many vehicles also include WiFi and power outlets at each row, so a corporate group can stay productive on the way to a conference at the Morial Convention Center. Amenities vary by vehicle, so mention your must-haves when you request your quote.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in New Orleans?
A New Orleans charter bus rental in this size range typically runs $200–$350 per hour on weekdays and $200–$350 per hour on weekends, with full-day rates ranging from $1,350 to $2,850 depending on the itinerary and how far the group is traveling. A half-day shuttle circuit between the French Quarter hotel corridor and the Convention Center will land at a very different number than a full-day roundtrip to Baton Rouge with multiple stops — date, total hours, and mileage all move the final figure. Jazz Fest weekends in late April and early May, Essence Festival in early July, and Saints home games at Caesars Superdome consistently push demand — and rates — higher than a quiet Tuesday in February.
Those ranges are planning figures to give your budget a starting point; a quote for your specific date and headcount takes about a minute to pull up. Call 504-459-0899 or fill out the quick form and find out. Check the New Orleans party bus prices page for a full breakdown across all vehicle types.
