More About The 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
The 40-56 passenger charter bus is the biggest vehicle in our fleet and the workhorse of long-distance group travel across Kentucky. These full-size highway coaches measure roughly 45 feet long with high-back, forward-facing seats arranged in a 2x2 configuration down the center aisle, giving every rider a window or aisle view. Massive undercarriage luggage bays sit beneath the cabin, opening from both sides, so wedding decor, athletic gear, marching band equipment, or convention exhibit materials all travel below while passengers ride above with overhead bins for personal items.
Compared to our 15-35 passenger minibuses, a full-size coach is purpose-built for the highway, making it the right pick for trips to Louisville, Cincinnati, Nashville, or anywhere your itinerary leads beyond Fayette County.

Amenities On Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus
Our 40-56 passenger charter buses come loaded with the amenities that matter on long Bluegrass road trips. Climate control keeps the cabin comfortable through hot Kentucky summers and chilly fall race weekends at Keeneland, while plush reclining seats with extra legroom let riders stretch out on the way to or from Louisville, Cincinnati, or a multi-day bourbon trail tour. Most full-size coaches include an onboard restroom, overhead reading lights, individual air vents, and overhead storage bins.
Power outlets at every seat keep phones and laptops charged for corporate groups working en route to a meeting at the Central Bank Center (430 W Vine St, Lexington, KY 40507), and WiFi keeps everyone connected through rural stretches of I-64 and I-75. Flat-screen TVs, a PA system, and Bluetooth audio are available on select buses for school groups, sports teams, and tour groups. ADA-accessible coaches with wheelchair lifts can also be requested at no additional charge.

How much does a 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus cost in Lexington?
Our 40-56 Passenger Charter Bus starts at $225/hr in Lexington, Kentucky. Because this category covers both 40-passenger coaches and full 56-passenger highway buses, typical weekday hourly rates land between $162 and $348+, weekend hourly rates fall between $158 and $327+, and full 10-hour day rates run between $1,331 and $2,841+. Several factors move your final number within those ranges: total hours booked, day of the week, season (Keeneland spring and fall meets, Derby weekend, and UK home football Saturdays all push rates higher), total mileage, multi-stop or multi-day itineraries, wait time between pickups, and your exact passenger count.
A 40-passenger build prices lower than a fully loaded 56-passenger coach, so sharing your real head count helps lock in the right rate. Call 859-800-4704 or use our 30-second online quote tool for an all-inclusive price tailored to your trip.
