Staff are horrible at communication
Staff are horrible at communicating, I called many times to confirm a booking for my wedding and never received calls back. There’s no online booking process. It doesn’t inspire much confidence to move forward with them.

I had to book last minute due to tornado damage to the bus we originally rented. Phone staff were very helpful in assisting me to set up a reservation the day before the event. The driver was incredibly kind and helpful despite the severely short-notice we provided. Thank you First Charter Bus Rental for the help!
