55 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Lenexa offers 55-passenger charter buses from the most trusted and respected manufacturers in the industry, including MCI, Prevost, Van Hool, and TEMSA. Our fleet includes the MCI J4500 and D4500 series—widely regarded as the gold standard for reliability, smooth ride quality, and advanced features—as well as the Prevost H3-45, which is known for its high floor design, massive luggage capacity, and luxury motorcoach feel. We also run Van Hool CX45 models—popular for their European styling, strong build quality, and excellent value—and the TEMSA TS45, a newer entry that’s quickly become a favorite thanks to its quiet cabin, fuel efficiency, and modern interior layout. Every one of these coaches is built to handle long-distance highway runs, steep grades, and rough pavement while keeping passengers comfortable and connected. If you need something specific—like a certain seat fabric, floor plan, or entertainment setup—just ask. We’ve seen it all, and we’ll make sure you get a bus that does the job.

We offer 55-passenger charter buses in a wide range of colors to match your event, brand, or personal preference—including classic black, white, silver, gray, blue, red, navy, yellow, and even custom wrap options. Need something that looks professional for a corporate shuttle? Our black, white, and silver coaches are popular choices that always make a good impression. Want to stand out on the highway or show school spirit? Ask about our blue, red, and yellow buses—or go all-in with a custom vinyl wrap featuring your logo, team colors, or wedding monogram. We can wrap the entire bus or just add decals to the windows and luggage bays. When you call for a quote, let us know what color you’re looking for and we’ll send photos of the exact vehicles available—it’s all part of getting you the perfect bus for your trip.

Our 55-passenger charter buses come loaded with the best standard amenities in the industry—so your riders stay comfortable, connected, and entertained on every trip. You’ll get high-back reclining seats with optional leatherette upholstery, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC with dual-zone climate control, and multiple flat-screen video monitors (up to four per coach) for DVD playback or HDMI input. Stay online with 4G/5G Wi-Fi, keep devices charged using 110V outlets and USB ports at every row, and take advantage of the full-size onboard restroom with hands-free flushing. There’s a PA system with wireless microphone, Bluetooth-enabled sound system, and either forward-facing or rear lounge seating configurations available. Storage includes overhead parcel racks plus up to 500 cubic feet of underfloor luggage bays—perfect for bulky gear, coolers, or AV equipment. Additional options: wood-look flooring, color-changing LED accent lighting, custom headrest covers, and exterior branding wraps.

A 55-passenger charter bus rental typically costs between $180 and $500+ per hour, $1,800 to $3,800 per day, or $6.00 to $9.95 per mile, depending on the specifics of your trip. The final price is determined by several factors: the length and duration of your trip (local versus out-of-town or multi-day), the time of year (peak seasons like spring and fall are more expensive), the exact pickup location (urban areas may have higher rates), and the availability of vehicles in your area. Additional costs can include tolls, parking fees, and lodging for the driver on overnight trips. Gratuity is included in your quote, but any extra services or special requests may incur additional charges. For the most accurate pricing, call our team at 913-489-6510 with your full itinerary and we’ll give you an instant, all-inclusive quote that covers everything you need.

The 55-passenger charter bus is the largest, most versatile, and most fully equipped vehicle in our fleet—making it the best choice for any group that needs maximum seating capacity, serious luggage space, and premium amenities at a competitive price. Compared to our smaller minibuses (which seat 18–35 and are great for short shuttles or small-group outings), the 55-seater offers true highway speed, a smoother ride over rough pavement, and full-size storage bays underneath the floor—perfect for sports equipment, band instruments, or convention gear. You’ll get upgraded features like onboard Wi-Fi, flat-screen video monitors, a PA system, and a real restroom—not just a “half-bath”—plus the option to add custom branding or headrest covers. This is the only vehicle in the lineup that can handle big jobs like moving a high school football team, a wedding party with 200 guests, or a corporate training session with everyone arriving at once. If you don’t need quite this much bus, we also offer midsize coaches in the 40–50 seat range—but most groups find that the 55-passenger model hits the sweet spot for comfort, capacity, and value.

We recommend booking your 55-passenger charter bus at least three to six months in advance to ensure the best availability and pricing—especially if your trip falls during a busy travel season or coincides with major local events. Spring and fall are peak times due to school field trips, sports tournaments, and wedding celebrations, which can make it harder to secure a vehicle on short notice. Large events like the KC Marathon, Big 12 Tournament, and Chiefs or Royals games also put extra demand on the regional fleet. If you’re planning a multi-day trip, need multiple buses, or require custom branding, it’s even more important to reserve early so we can accommodate all your requests. Last-minute bookings are possible but may limit your options and increase the cost—so lock in your reservation as soon as your dates are set.
