Why spare seats on a 45 seater are not waste

Most people booking a 45 seater have 35 to 42 passengers. The spare seats are not waste. They absorb the two colleagues who join late, the bags nobody wanted in the hold, and the row you keep free for organisers. Booking exactly to your headcount is how a trip ends up uncomfortable.

When to pick this over the 49

The 49 seater costs $10 more and gives four more seats plus more hold space. Take the 45 when your group is comfortably under 45 and luggage is light. Take the 49 when you are close to the limit, or when everyone is flying with a checked case.

What people rent a 45-seater coach for

Full departments, class trips, wedding guest shuttles and any group between 24 and 45 that wants to travel on one vehicle.

What does a 45-seater coach cost to rent

A one way transfer is $100, an airport transfer is $110, and hourly hire is $60 an hour with a four hour minimum, so $240 for a half day.

What to check before you book a 45 seater

The 45 seater is the vehicle most groups end up on, so the questions are about fit: whether 45 really means 45, whether the hold is big enough, and whether you are being sold more bus than you need.

Booking exactly to headcount and ending up cramped
What we doForty five is a hard licensed limit, not a guideline, and standing is not permitted. We size with a little slack on purpose, because the spare seats absorb late joiners and the bags nobody wants on their lap.
Ask this of any quoteIs 45 the licensed capacity or the theoretical one, and how many spare seats does my booking leave?
Paying coach money for a group that would fit a minibus
What we doIf your group fits 23 people and the pickup is straightforward, the 23 seater at $85 is the cheaper booking and we will say so.
Ask this of any quoteWould a smaller vehicle do this job, and what would that cost instead?
The hold is too small for a full set of checked bags
What we doThe 45 seater has an under-floor hold, which is the main practical difference from the 23 seater. For 40 people all checking a large case on an airport run, we would step you up to the 49.
Ask this of any quoteDoes this vehicle have an under-floor hold, and is it sized for a checked bag each?
