Changing Your Itinerary:

Plans can change, and flexibility is often crucial. It’s always advisable to settle your travel details well in advance. However, understanding the unpredictable nature of travel, we will work with you to implement adjustments to your itinerary.

Cancellation and Refund Policy:

Cancellation policies are structured to offer peace of mind while reflecting different stages of commitment:

• Cancel 30 days or more before the scheduled pickup to receive a 100% refund.
• Unfortunately, no refund is available for cancellations made less than 30 days prior to the trip date.  

When you book a charter bus rental, understanding the payment process is essential to ensure a smooth experience. Here’s a breakdown of how it typically works:

1. Receive and Accept a Quote: After you have chosen the perfect bus for your needs, you’ll receive a detailed quote. Once you accept this quote, you’ll move forward to the payment stage.
2. Secure Your Booking with a Deposit: To lock in your reservation, a deposit of 20% is required. This ensures that your bus is reserved exclusively for your trip.
3. Payment Confirmation and Dates: Once the deposit is processed, you’ll receive a confirmation. This will include important information, such as the deadline for paying the remaining balance- always 30 days prior to the trip.
4. Payment Methods: A valid credit card is generally required to finalize the reservation. This ensures that any future payments can be processed efficiently. We accept payment by check and ACH as well.
5. Final Payment Details: Make sure to note the date when the full payment is due to avoid any disruptions to your travel plans.

By following these steps, your Metropolitan Shuttle charter bus rental will be secured, allowing you to focus on enjoying your journey.

Renting a charter bus can vary significantly in cost, depending on several key factors. It's essential to consider these elements to better understand how pricing is determined:

1. Travel Dates: Your chosen dates can greatly impact pricing. Peak tourist seasons or major events  can drive up demand and prices. Scheduling your trip during off-peak times may offer more competitive rates.
2. Pickup and Drop-off Schedule: The timing and duration of your rental play an essential role in cost. Full-day rentals or overnight trips typically cost more than shorter excursions due to extended driver hours and fuel usage.
3. Group Size: The number of passengers directly affects the type and size of the bus you'll need. Larger groups require more spacious buses, which tend to cost more. Conversely, smaller groups can use minibuses or smaller coaches, which are generally less expensive.
4. Advanced Booking: How early you book your charter can influence pricing. Booking well in advance often allows you to lock in lower rates, while last-minute reservations might incur premium charges due to limited availability.

By considering these factors, you can better navigate the cost structure and find an option that fits your budget for a charter bus.
