Amenities Available on our 18 Passenger Minibuses in Palm Bay

Wi-Fi
Stay connected on the go with free WiFi available on every 18-passenger minibus. Whether you need to check email, stream music, or update social media during your commute on I-95 or US-1, you’ll have reliable internet access throughout the ride. This is especially useful for business travelers heading to meetings in downtown Melbourne or students working on assignments en route to Eastern Florida State College. If you need extra bandwidth for video conferencing or large file downloads, let us know when booking and we can upgrade the onboard router to support your group’s needs.

Onboard Restrooms
All of our 18-passenger minibuses come equipped with a compact restroom at the rear of the cabin, so your group can travel comfortably without unnecessary stops. This feature is especially convenient for longer trips to Orlando theme parks, Port Canaveral cruise terminals, or sporting events at Camping World Stadium. The restroom includes a flushing toilet, hand sanitizer dispenser, and modesty curtain for privacy. While not as spacious as a full-size motorcoach lavatory, it’s more than sufficient for short-to-medium distance journeys around Central Florida.

Onboard TVs
Entertain your passengers with multiple flat-screen TVs mounted throughout the cabin, perfect for playing movies, TV shows, or corporate videos during the ride. Each screen is connected to a central media player that supports DVDs, Blu-rays, and digital files via USB or HDMI input. You can also mirror content from a laptop or tablet for presentations or slideshows. Audio is distributed through ceiling-mounted speakers, with individual volume controls at each row so everyone can enjoy the show without missing a word.

Power Outlets
Keep your devices charged and ready with multiple power outlets and USB ports installed at every seat. Whether you’re working on a laptop, charging a smartphone, or powering a medical device, you’ll have easy access to electricity throughout the trip. The electrical system supports both standard 120V plugs and 5V USB connections, compatible with most modern electronics. If your group requires additional power for equipment like cameras, projectors, or lighting, we can provide extension cords or portable inverters upon request.

Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Beat the Florida heat with a powerful climate control system that keeps the entire cabin cool and comfortable, even on the hottest summer days. Each row features adjustable air vents overhead, allowing passengers to direct airflow exactly where they want it. The HVAC unit is capable of maintaining a consistent temperature regardless of outside conditions, with separate zones for front and rear sections of the bus. During cooler months, the same system provides efficient heating to take the chill off early morning departures or late-night returns.

Leather Seating
Ride in style on plush leather seats that are as comfortable as they are attractive. Each seat is generously padded with high-density foam, contoured for ergonomic support, and finished in easy-to-clean upholstery that resists stains and spills. Armrests, headrests, and reclining backs come standard, with optional upgrades like footrests or lumbar cushions available for an extra touch of luxury. The seating layout can be configured with forward-facing rows, perimeter benches, or a combination of both to suit your group’s preferences.

Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Bring all your gear without sacrificing legroom thanks to ample storage space both inside and outside the minibus. Overhead racks run the length of the cabin, perfect for stowing backpacks, purses, or small carry-ons within easy reach. Larger items like suitcases, coolers, or sports equipment can be stored in the rear luggage compartment, accessible via an exterior door at the back of the vehicle. For groups traveling with extra-large or heavy cargo, select models offer underfloor bays similar to those found on full-size coaches, providing secure and weatherproof storage for everything from musical instruments to trade show displays.
