The bus was timely and the driver was very accommodating. We had small delays herding the cats (visiting family and friends) and did not feel rushed in the least. It was an excellent experience.

Our customer service and our driver…

Our customer service and our driver experience was terrific from start to finish. We went and saw holiday lights as part of a family outing and our driver was so festive, even playing holiday music for us!

Great drivers and transportation but difficult scheduling…

The bus drivers and transportation was great. The problem we have is communication with the office. So difficult to call to arrange the trip. Also- we did not need to leave until 9:45 but we were forced to contract at 9:00. 10:00 would have been cutting it too close. That is a lot of extra expense. We will not be able to take trips this year due to cost.

Great Customer Service!

Ashley was an awesome customer service rep. I appreciated her attention to detail and was willing to work with us, even when we had changes.

The drivers were awesome and did a great job. They were on time and flexible with our schedule.

This is the third time we have used First Charter and will use them again in the future.
An overall great experience.

Customer Service rep was great

Customer Service rep was great! Always helpful and helped make it a very easy process for us. The bus driver was also great and was helpful with the school when transitioning with their lunches. Buses were on time and was patience with everything!

Good afternoon,

Good afternoon,

I can not give an explanation about the actual bus experience, only about the cost - per trip is extremely
HIGH and the process to receive a quote in not consistent. Thank you for asking-

What's Next Fair

The scheduler for the buses was great however once bus was unabled to be used and back to the hub because there was a leak and no one contacted me regarding that challenge.

2 buses were to arrive at 9:00 am

2 buses were to arrive at 9:00 am. None showed up. When I called to check on this, no one could even find where they were supposed to be coming from. Event had to be rescheduled to a later time. Didn't know if we would have buses until 10:30 for an 11:00 arrival. It was a very stressful experience. Also, we had 74 kinder through 4th graders. Three could fit across the seat easily. However, we were told we had to have two buses. The driver said we could have had all on one bus. The bus held 72 and we were told you have buses that hold 78. Lastly, we spent $850 for two buses to go 25 minutes away. Waaaay too expensive. I will avoid using First Student in the future if at all possible and will make sure to pass this on to all Archdiocesan schools.
