54 Passenger Charter Bus

Charter Bus Company Keller offers several makes and models of 54-passenger charter buses, including the MCI J4500, MCI D4500, Prevost H3-45, Van Hool CX45, and TEMSA TS45. These are all 45-foot, high-capacity motorcoaches built by the most trusted manufacturers in the industry—so you know you’re getting a vehicle that’s reliable, comfortable, and loaded with modern features. The exact model you get will depend on what’s available in your region and any special requests you have, but every coach comes with the same great amenities and support. If you need something specific—like a certain make, model year, or custom seating configuration—just ask when you call and we’ll do our best to match it.

Our 54-passenger charter buses are available in a wide range of exterior colors, including black, white, silver, grey, blue, red, navy, and yellow. We can also provide custom wraps or partial wraps with your company logo, school colors, or event branding if you need something that stands out. Interior color schemes vary by model but typically include neutral tones like grey, charcoal, or beige upholstery with coordinating floor and ceiling panels. If you have a specific color preference or need to match existing branding, let your reservation specialist know when you call. We’ll make sure you get a bus that fits the look and style of your group.

Every 54-passenger charter bus comes standard with high-back reclining seats, individual reading lights, powerful HVAC, multiple flat-screen video monitors, a PA system with wired/wireless microphones, 110V/USB power at every row, free onboard Wi-Fi, a full-size rear restroom, and massive underfloor storage bays. Additional features include overhead parcel racks, color-changing LED accent lighting, and optional leatherette upholstery. If your group requires something special—like custom branding or upgraded sound packages—we’re happy to accommodate.

A 54-passenger charter bus rental from Charter Bus Company Keller typically costs $180–$500+ per hour, $1,800–$3,800 per day, or $6.00–$9.95 per mile, depending on the specifics of your trip.

The 54-passenger charter bus is one of the largest and most versatile vehicles in our fleet—ideal for moving big groups comfortably and efficiently. Compared to smaller options like minibuses or sprinter vans, it offers significantly more seating, better legroom, and far greater luggage capacity thanks to its underfloor storage bays. You’ll get premium amenities such as reclining seats, multiple video screens, a full PA system, onboard Wi-Fi, 110V/USB power at every row, and a full-size rear restroom—features that aren’t available on most smaller coaches. While we do offer even larger 56- and 60-passenger models for very large groups, the 54-seater hits the sweet spot for schools, sports teams, corporate events, and multi-day tours. It’s easier to maneuver and park than the biggest buses but still provides all the comfort and storage space your passengers need. If you’re not sure which size is right for your group, our team can help you compare specs and choose the best option based on your headcount, budget, and trip details.

We recommend booking your 54-passenger charter bus at least 3–6 months in advance to ensure availability and get the best rates—especially if your trip falls during a busy season or coincides with major local events. In the Dallas–Fort Worth area, demand for large charter buses spikes around spring break, summer vacations, and the winter holidays, as well as during big events like the State Fair of Texas, college football games at AT&T Stadium, and major conventions or festivals downtown. If you’re traveling during one of these peak periods, it’s smart to reserve your bus even earlier—up to a year ahead isn’t uncommon for the busiest dates. That said, we understand that not every trip can be planned months in advance, and we’ll always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests. Because we operate one of the largest fleets in the region, we’re often able to get you a bus for groups that need something on short notice. Just keep in mind that availability may be limited and pricing may be higher if you’re booking close to your departure date. The bottom line: as soon as you know your travel dates and have a rough headcount, give us a call. Once you have a quote and decide to move forward, a deposit will lock in your reservation and guarantee that a bus is held for your group.
