Amenities Available on our 56 Passenger Charter Buses in Columbia
Wi-Fi
Every 56-passenger charter bus comes with high-speed Wi-Fi that supports email, streaming, video calls, and large downloads across multiple devices. Perfect for business travelers heading to downtown Columbia meetings, students on University of South Carolina campus tours, or sports fans traveling to Colonial Life Arena—everyone stays connected and productive the entire trip.
Onboard Restrooms
All our 56-passenger buses include a full-size onboard restroom with toilet and hand sanitizer. This amenity is essential for long trips—such as school outings to Charleston or Myrtle Beach, athletic travel between SEC campuses, or corporate shuttles stuck in I-26 construction—helping keep the schedule tight and passengers comfortable.
Onboard TVs
Flat-screen TVs are standard on every 56-passenger coach, mounted throughout the cabin for easy viewing. DVD/Blu-ray players and HDMI inputs allow groups to watch movies, run presentations, or review game film. Great for entertaining kids on zoo trips, previewing conference material, or keeping sports teams focused.
Power Outlets
Each seating row has 110V power outlets and USB ports, so laptops, tablets, and phones stay charged. Business groups heading to the State House, students working on assignments, and fans streaming games will appreciate having reliable power for all their devices.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced climate control keeps the cabin comfortable year-round, with powerful A/C for humid Columbia summers and efficient heating in winter. Individual air vents let passengers adjust airflow at their seat. Everyone stays cool after a hot day at Williams-Brice Stadium or warm on chilly morning departures.
Leather Seating
High-back reclining seats with optional leatherette upholstery provide exceptional comfort on short and long trips. Armrests, headrests, and generous legroom make it easy to relax, nap, or read. Upgraded upholstery gives the cabin a professional look for corporate and VIP groups.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Carry-on bags, backpacks, and jackets can be stowed in spacious overhead racks above the seats. Larger items—such as luggage, coolers, band instruments, or athletic gear—fit in undercarriage bays accessible from outside the bus. There’s room for everyone’s equipment, even on fully loaded trips.
