Yes, our Mankato charter buses have ample luggage space. Full-size (50–56 passenger) coaches offer both overhead parcel racks inside the cabin and large undercarriage luggage bays accessible from outside. For most trips, each passenger can bring one full-size suitcase (roller bag) for the luggage bay and one smaller carry-on or backpack for the overhead compartment. Minibuses (15–35 passengers) have overhead racks and limited rear cargo space but may not have full undercarriage bays—larger items can be stored in the back of the cabin. If you have extra luggage, sports equipment, or bulky items, let us know when booking so we can recommend a vehicle with sufficient storage.

On full-size (50–56 passenger) coaches, you’ll typically find one or two 110V outlets per row—either between the seats or along the side panels—plus USB-A ports at each seat. Newer models may include USB-C ports as well. Minibuses (15–35 passengers) usually have USB ports at every seat and one or two 110V outlets in the cabin. If you need to power laptops, tablets, or other devices during your trip, please request a bus with full power and USB connectivity when booking. We’ll make sure your vehicle meets all your charging needs.

Smaller minibuses (15–35 passengers) may or may not have a restroom—some models include one, while others do not. If having a restroom is important for your group, please let us know when booking so we can assign a vehicle that meets your needs. We’ll confirm whether your bus has a restroom before you finalize your reservation.

It’s best to book your charter bus at least 3 to 6 months in advance, especially if your trip is during the busy spring or fall seasons. Large events like MSU–Mankato graduation, homecoming, and summer weddings can sell out months ahead. For trips in July, August, or January, book even earlier if possible. Last-minute rentals are available but selection may be limited.
