NOTE: All charters must be arranged with the PR Coordinator at least 4 weeks or 20 full business days in advance. After confirming arrangements, the charter will then be placed in pending status. If staff cannot be secured at least 2 weeks prior to the scheduled date, the PR Coordinator reserves the right to cancel said charter or perform it themselves. At that two-week mark, the PR Coordinator will contact and update all relevant parties regarding the charter’s status, whether it will be accepted or denied.
Charters can be performed in both OCC Transport's blue buses & green shuttles.
Blue buses can seat 37 people. If trips are within 10 miles, they can also stand 14 people for a total capacity of 51 passengers.
Green buses can only hold a total of 18 people, and cannot allow any standing passengers.
OCC Transport will not charter any groups to New York City or beyond New York state lines.
OCC Transport will not charter to private residences.
Charter service is available on a first come, first served basis. Requests may be denied or canceled to ensure regular service remains operable.
