No — Irvingcoachbuscompany.com is a comparison and referral website.

You fill out one form, head over to the national booking platform, and choose the bus that fits your trip.
The transportation itself is carried out by independent operators serving your area — Irvingcoachbuscompany.com connects you to them quickly and easily.
When you search on your own, you call one company, hear what they have, and take it or leave it. With Irvingcoachbuscompany.com, you fill out one form or make one call to 469-472-1610 and immediately see more options and more price points than any single operator can offer. You see vehicles and rates in seconds rather than waiting on callbacks from multiple companies.

Booking a Charter Bus
Fill out the quick form on this page with your trip details — or call 469-472-1610 if you would rather go through it with someone. As soon as you submit the form, you are taken directly to a search results page on the national booking company's website. That booking company partners with independent operators serving the Irving area, and right there on their site you can see available vehicles, pricing, and details for your specific trip.
What you are choosing is a vehicle and a price — and you can book it directly online in minutes.
Your pickup city, where you are going, how many people are in your group, and how many hours you need the bus. That is enough to get started. The more detail you give — your stops, your start and end times, any luggage or equipment, and the amenities your group needs — the more accurate the quote comes back and the better the match you will find.
A full itinerary always returns better results than a rough outline.
Right away — there is no waiting on a callback. The moment you submit the form, you go straight to the search results page and see available vehicles and pricing from the national booking platform immediately. You are not sitting in a queue or waiting for an email.
If you would rather talk through your trip with someone, call 469-472-1610 and get pricing the same way, just with a person walking you through it.
The earlier the better, especially for a popular Irving date or a specific vehicle. That said, because Irvingcoachbuscompany.com puts your request in front of a whole network of providers serving the area rather than one operator with one yard, short-notice trips are often still workable — and that is a real advantage over calling a single company and being told no. Submit your request or call 469-472-1610 even on short notice and see what is available.
On genuinely high-demand dates like Cowboys home games at AT&T Stadium or prom weekends across Irving ISD, the whole market moves early — so booking ahead on those dates is always the smarter move.
All of those can be requested. Hourly or as-directed keeps the vehicle with your group for a set block of time and is great when the itinerary is flexible or running late. A one-way transfer moves your group from one point to another — a hotel to DFW Airport, for example.
A round trip brings everyone back to where they started. A multi-stop itinerary runs a set route with several pickup or drop-off points, which works well for winery loops through Grapevine or a concert shuttle with multiple hotel pickups. A multi-day booking covers a trip that runs across more than one day, like a group heading down to San Antonio or Austin.
Which format fits depends on the trip itself — and a multi-stop or overnight itinerary should be laid out in full with your request so it comes back priced correctly.
Charter Bus Pricing
A charter bus costs $205–$385+ per hour on weekdays, $225–$410+ per hour on weekends, and $1,650–$2,950+ per day. Those are real planning ranges, not a flat rate — pricing is not one size fits all, and a number of things move a quote up or down from that starting point. The size of the bus, the date, the distance, and how busy Irving is on that day all factor in.
The fastest way to see what your specific trip costs is to fill out the form and see pricing for your actual itinerary in seconds. Or call 469-472-1610 — going through the trip with someone can surface packages and options you would not find on your own.
It depends on the trip, and all three are used. A shorter trip of a couple of hours — say, a shuttle from Irving hotels to AT&T Stadium for a Cowboys game and back — is usually priced hourly. A trip that covers significant distance, roughly past the 100- to 200-mile mark, such as a run from Irving down to Austin or San Antonio, may carry a per-mile charge instead.
A long day, generally around eight hours or more, often comes back as a flat day rate rather than stacked hourly charges, because the vehicle is booked for so much of the day. Submitting your actual trip details is what determines which structure applies — there is no guessing involved once the itinerary is in.
The type and size of bus, how long it is booked for, the date and day of the week, the distance and route, the number of stops, and how busy that date is in the Irving market all move the price. Sunday through Thursday prices lower than Friday and Saturday. Daytime trips price lower than those same evenings.
Booking the bus size your group actually needs — rather than over-sizing — keeps the rate where it belongs. And grouping your riders into one or two pickup points instead of five separate stops cuts the hours on the clock, which cuts the total. Irving sits right between DFW Airport and AT&T Stadium, so dates when both are busy at once — a Cowboys home Sunday during a Rangers playoff run, for example — push the whole local market up.
Booking well ahead of those dates is the single most reliable way to get a better price.
About Charter Buses
A charter bus is a full-size passenger coach that a group hires for its own trip, with its own route and schedule, rather than riding a fixed public route. It is built for moving a large group over a distance in one vehicle — generally seating roughly 40 to 56 people — on whatever itinerary the group needs, from a single airport transfer to a multi-day trip across several states.
On the outside, a full-size charter bus is a tall, long coach body with high tinted windows running its full length and a row of luggage bay doors along the lower panels. The exterior is usually finished in white, silver, black, or a solid color, though some coaches are wrapped in an operator's own graphics — so the coach that shows up will not always look identical to a photo. Inside, the seats run in forward-facing pairs on either side of a center aisle, in cloth or leather depending on the make and model.
Overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. A restroom sits toward the rear. Popular full-size models include the MCI J4500, the Van Hool CX45, and the Prevost H3-45 — all share the same basic layout, with differences in seat fabric, interior finish, and onboard equipment.
Some of the amenities available on charter buses include reclining cloth or leather seats, individual climate controls, onboard restrooms, overhead parcel racks, undercarriage baggage bays, WiFi, power outlets and USB charging ports, a PA system with microphone, and flat-screen TV monitors. Features may include any combination of those depending on the make, model, and how the coach is equipped — no two vehicles are identical. Note the amenities that matter to your group when you submit your trip details, since that narrows which vehicles come back as matches.
Generally 40 to 56 passengers, depending on the make and model, with 56 the most common configuration on a full-size coach. The MCI J4500 seats 56 as standard and is built for up to 60. The Van Hool CX45 is the same — 56 standard, up to 60.
The Prevost H3-45 also seats 56. Shorter 35-foot coaches seat closer to 44. What changes the count on the same coach: extra legroom configurations and wheelchair positions each remove seats from the total.
Because Irvingcoachbuscompany.com works with a network of providers across the Irving area, the exact coach on any given trip depends on what is available for your date — submit the trip or call 469-472-1610 if your group needs a specific capacity confirmed.
A 56-passenger coach runs 14 rows, with two seats on each side of a center aisle — forward-facing, paired seating, one aisle down the middle. The row count drops on coaches built with extra legroom or a wheelchair position, since those configurations take space that would otherwise hold a full row. Some coaches also tier the front rows slightly for sightlines on scenic routes.
A full-size charter bus is 45 feet long and 8.5 feet wide. To picture it: roughly three cars parked end to end. That is the measurement people are usually working with when they ask — whether a bus fits a hotel loading lane, a venue drop-off point, or a parking area.
Shorter coaches exist, most commonly around 35 feet, and those are the ones that work better in tighter urban settings. The 45-foot coach is the standard full-size vehicle.
A full-size charter bus stands about 11 to 12 feet tall depending on the model, and traffic engineers typically design clearances for 12 feet. A useful comparison: a little taller than a single story of a house. That is the figure to check against a parking garage, an underpass, or a covered drop-off area before routing a full-size coach through it.
The 12-foot figure is the one to use when confirming clearance at a venue or facility.
WiFi is one of the amenities available on charter buses, and many coaches on the road today are equipped with it. One point worth knowing: onboard WiFi is a feature a coach is built with rather than something every coach carries, so whether a specific vehicle has it varies by make, model, and operator. The other thing worth setting honestly: onboard WiFi runs off a cellular connection and is built for light use across a full coach — phones, messaging, browsing — not for 50 or 60 people doing heavy data work simultaneously.
If your group needs WiFi, note it with your trip details when you submit the form, and that will narrow which vehicles come back as options.
Yes — an onboard restroom is standard on full-size charter buses, located toward the rear of the coach. It is there so a group does not have to stop every hour, and on a long run like Irving to San Antonio or Irving to Oklahoma City, the trip may still be planned with real rest stops depending on the group's preference. Features may vary by vehicle, so if an onboard restroom is important for your trip, note it with your request so the right coach is matched to the group.
Yes — charter buses are built with 110-volt AC power outlets, and coaches are commonly fitted with them at every seat, some with a USB port built into the same outlet. This is an equipment option rather than a universal standard, so it varies by vehicle. In practical terms, a group can keep phones and laptops charged across a long run — which matters on a trip from Irving to Houston or a multi-day charter.
If your group needs outlets at every seat, note it with your trip details so the right vehicle comes back.
Yes — in two places. Inside the coach, overhead parcel racks run the full length of the cabin. Underneath, undercarriage baggage bays run along the lower panels on both sides.
A full-size coach carries roughly 460 cubic feet of underfloor baggage space and around 100 cubic feet in the overhead racks. Across a full 56-passenger load, that works out to roughly 8 cubic feet per person underneath and under 2 cubic feet overhead — in practice, about one checked-size bag per person below plus one small carry-on above. What changes it: a coach fitted with a wheelchair lift gives up some baggage bay space, and bulky gear like musical instruments, sports equipment, or event supplies takes the equivalent of several bags.
If your group is traveling with oversized items or an unusually heavy load of luggage — say, a team heading to a tournament or a group flying home from a cruise — state it with your trip details so the right coach is matched to what you are actually bringing.
Charter Bus Service in Irving, Texas
Irvingcoachbuscompany.com helps groups find transportation for just about any reason to travel together in Irving and the surrounding DFW area. Airport transfers to and from DFW and Love Field are one of the most common trips. Corporate travel and employee shuttles between Las Colinas offices and the Irving Convention Center or DFW hotels keep teams moving without the parking scramble.
Weddings and private events get guest shuttles between hotel blocks and venues. Concerts at the Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory and game-day shuttles to AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field keep groups together when the parking lots are a nightmare. School field trips and team travel, church group trips, winery loops through Grapevine, prom, and long-distance travel to Austin, San Antonio, or Oklahoma City are all in the network.
Whatever brings your group together, there is a bus for it.
Irvingcoachbuscompany.com connects you to a network of transportation providers serving Irving and the entire DFW metro area. Nearby cities the network covers include Arlington, Dallas, Fort Worth, Grapevine, Grand Prairie, Las Colinas, Carrollton, Hurst, Euless, and Bedford — and that is just a starting point, not the full coverage area. Enter your full route into the form or call 469-472-1610 to check availability for any city not listed here.
The dates that fill the Irving market fastest are the ones tied to AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field. Dallas Cowboys home Sundays from September through January and Texas Rangers home games through October both pull heavily from the Irving charter pool — and when a Cowboys game and a Rangers game fall on the same weekend, the whole DFW market tightens at once. The Cotton Bowl Classic on New Year's Day and the Big 12 Championship in December at AT&T Stadium are among the single busiest charter days of the year.
Prom season across Irving ISD — April and May at Nimitz, MacArthur, Irving High, and Singley — books out early every year. GrapeFest in September draws huge group travel demand just 8 miles north. New Year's Eve into Dallas and State Fair of Texas weekends in September and October both push the market hard.
Book those dates well ahead — and on any date, submit your request or call 469-472-1610 even on short notice, because the network covers more than any single operator can.
Planning Your Irving, Texas Charter Bus Trip
Yes — and Irving is genuinely one of the best-positioned cities in the country for airport charter service. Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) (2400 Aviation Dr, DFW Airport, TX 75261) sits partially within Irving's own city limits, roughly 5–10 miles from central Irving and 10–20 minutes depending on the terminal and traffic on TX-183 or TX-114. It is the 3rd busiest airport in the world by operations, with five terminals — A through E — and the bus meets your group at the lower-level Arrivals curb following DFW's ground transportation guidelines for commercial vehicles.
Dallas Love Field (DAL) (8008 Herb Kelleher Way, Dallas, TX 75235) is approximately 12–15 miles east via TX-183, about 20–30 minutes, with commercial pickup on the lower-level Arrivals curb. For either airport, have your group gathered with all luggage before calling the bus forward — that is what keeps the pickup clean and on time.
Yes — and the Irving area puts your group within easy reach of some of the biggest venues in the country. AT&T Stadium (1 AT&T Way, Arlington, TX 76011), home of the Dallas Cowboys, is roughly 10–12 miles southeast of Irving via TX-183 and I-30, about 20 minutes off-peak. Charter bus drop-off is on Stadium Drive on the north side, with oversized vehicle staging in designated lots — advance coordination is required for game days, and TX-360, Collins Street, and AT&T Way all experience significant closures and congestion 2–3 hours before and after major events, so building in extra time is essential.
Globe Life Field (734 Stadium Dr, Arlington, TX 76011), home of the Texas Rangers, sits adjacent to AT&T Stadium — charter drop-off on Stadium Drive, with bus parking in Lot D through advance arrangements. The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory (300 W Las Colinas Blvd, Irving, TX 75039) is right in Irving's Las Colinas district, hosting major touring concerts all season long. Submit your event date or call 469-472-1610 and see what is available for your game or show.
Yes — Irving's own convention center is one of the primary destinations in the network. The Irving Convention Center at Las Colinas (500 W Las Colinas Blvd, Irving, TX 75039) offers 275,000 square feet of event space and is directly connected to the Westin Irving Convention Center hotel, with charter bus drop-off on the West Las Colinas Blvd frontage and a designated bus lane on the west side of the building. For larger conventions, the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas (650 S Griffin St, Dallas, TX 75202) is about 15 miles east, with designated commercial vehicle zones on the south side along Griffin Street.
The Gaylord Texan Resort (1501 Gaylord Trail, Grapevine, TX 76051) is roughly 8 miles north and handles major group conferences year-round. Large venues have designated bus loading areas separate from the main entrance — and a repeat hotel-to-venue shuttle should have its full schedule laid out with the request so it comes back timed and priced correctly.
Yes — any wedding venue in the Irving area. The network covers hotel ballrooms like the Omni Las Colinas Hotel (221 E Las Colinas Blvd, Irving, TX 75039) and the Westin Irving Convention Center at Las Colinas (400 W Las Colinas Blvd, Irving, TX 75039), both popular for receptions in the Las Colinas district. Couples pulling from the wider DFW area frequently use charter buses to move guests to vineyard venues like Dove Ridge Vineyard (6000 Tucker Dr, Weatherford, TX 76085) about 45 miles west, or barn and estate properties like Hidden Creek (215 Chris Cuny Pkwy, Heath, TX 75032) roughly 25 miles out.
The most common setup is a shuttle loop between the hotel room block and the venue — give the exact venue address with your request and the right vehicle gets matched to the route. White, black, and silver exterior buses are available through the network if the color matters for your day.
Yes — Irvingcoachbuscompany.com serves schools and campuses throughout Irving and the DFW area. Irving ISD's major high schools — Nimitz High School (1100 W Oakdale Rd), MacArthur High School (3700 N MacArthur Blvd), Irving High School (900 N. O'Connor Rd), and Singley Academy (4601 N. MacArthur Blvd) — are all common pickup points for field trips, team travel, and prom. Dallas College North Lake Campus (5001 N MacArthur Blvd, Irving, TX 75038) and the University of Dallas (1845 E Northgate Dr, Irving, TX 75062) both have campus bus loading zones and regular group transportation needs.
Nearby destinations like UT Arlington and TCU in Fort Worth are common group travel targets. Field trips and team travel are usually pickups at the school or campus itself — include the exact headcount and any accessibility needs with the request so the right bus comes back.
Yes — and Irving's location makes it one of the best starting points for a winery or nightlife group trip in North Texas. Grapevine's wine trail is just 8–10 miles north, with stops like Delaney Vineyards (2000 Champagne Blvd, Grapevine, TX 76051), Messina Hof Winery Grapevine (201 S. Main St, Grapevine, TX 76051), and Sloan & Williams Winery (815 S Main St, Grapevine, TX 76051) all within a short loop. For nightlife, Deep Ellum in Dallas is about 15 miles east — 40-plus bars and live music venues in a walkable district — and Uptown Dallas and Lower Greenville Avenue are in the same range.
Casino groups head north on I-35 to WinStar World Casino (777 Casino Ave, Thackerville, OK 74459), about 90 miles and roughly 1.5 hours from Irving. A multi-stop route is timed by how long the group stays at each location — list your stops and how long at each one when you submit the request, and the hours come back priced correctly.
Yes — long-distance trips are a regular part of what the network handles from Irving. Austin is about 195 miles south via I-35, roughly 3 hours — a popular run for concerts, UT games, and bachelorette groups. San Antonio is about 275 miles south, around 4 hours — River Walk, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, and SeaWorld draw large group trips year-round.
Houston is roughly 240 miles southeast via I-45, about 3.5 hours, for NRG Stadium, Minute Maid Park, and Space Center Houston. Oklahoma City is about 205 miles north via I-35, around 3 hours, for Thunder games at Paycom Center and Bricktown. New Orleans is roughly 510 miles east, about 7.5 hours — a popular multi-day group trip.
Gulf Coast beaches at South Padre Island are about 540 miles south, around 8 hours for spring break and summer groups. A long-distance trip is usually booked as a one-way transfer or a multi-day itinerary rather than by the hour — and overnight trips need the full schedule laid out with the request so it comes back priced and staged correctly. Call 469-472-1610 or submit the full route and see what is available.
