Experienced airline passengers know all the tricks: Unless you want to pay extra for in-flight WiFi, you need to download content onto your phone, tablet, or laptop before takeoff so you have something to entertain you while you are in the air. And don’t wait until you get to the airport, either. You may need to pay extra there, too.

At FLBusCharter.com, all passengers on any of our motor coaches can enjoy free lightning-fast WiFi on every journey we make. Now your group can watch, stream, listen, and even work on their devices while letting us take you where you need to be.

Free WiFi

WiFi access has become an important part of practically everybody’s everyday life. Without it, we can’t check our social media accounts, text with friends and family, and stream our favorite music, movies, and TV from anywhere. Knowing this, many airlines have taken advantage of the fact that they have a “captive audience” 10,000 feet in their air. They charge a premium for internet access because they know most people will happily pay for it.

But at FLBusCharter.com, we don’t think it’s fair to make people pay for something they can get for free most everywhere else. That’s why our luxury motor coaches come equipped with high-speed internet and WiFi access for every passenger.

But that’s not all. We also understand that on journeys that can last hours, using your devices can quickly wear down the battery. So in addition to WiFi access, every seat on one of our luxury charter motor coaches also has a place where you can plug in and recharge your phone, laptop, tablet, or other device.

Going places in 2024 shouldn’t mean having to sacrifice web access. With FLBusCharter.com, it doesn’t. For your next group outing, choose the luxury charter bus rental company that takes care of its passengers. Choose FLBusCharter.com.

If you are scheduling a group outing that includes older adults, it’s a good idea to add a little extra time to the beginning and end of your journey — and maybe in the middle as well.

The fact is that older adults often require a little extra time when traveling. It can take them longer physically to get on and off the bus. Some may require more frequent bathroom breaks. And it’s important to make sure older people are well-nourished and hydrated, especially if they are taking medications.

Senior Citizens

Group outings for senior centers, social clubs for older adults, and other events for people over a certain age are common. Retirees tend to have more free time. And older people love to explore new places and learn new things just as much as anybody else.

It just takes a little more tender loving care and patience when organizing a group outing for older adults, especially when it comes to scheduling. You want to make sure everybody has a great time and doesn’t feel rushed or pressured while they are enjoying their outing. Make sure there is plenty of time before, during, and after every segment of the journey — from the departure time to the bathroom and meal breaks to the time spent at the destination itself.

Do you remember in school when the teacher would take attendance every morning? It was important because it ensured that every student was where they were supposed to be.

Using an attendance roster for group outings also is a good idea and for the same reason. Even with adults, keeping track of everybody to make sure everybody is where they are supposed to be has high value. For one thing, it makes sure nobody gets accidentally left behind.

Attendance Roster

An attendance roster is simply a list of everybody in your group. Today, it also should include their smartphone number in case you have to reach them if they aren’t where they need to be, such as when it’s time to leave. Attendance rosters are helpful, efficient, and safe for everybody, but especially if your outing includes children or teenagers.

Take attendance at the beginning of the outing to get a final count on who is with the group before you leave. Then take it again whenever the bus is moving — whether it’s to go to another location, whether it’s time to go home, or anytime you aren’t sure if everybody is there.

The attendance roster can be a physical list — such as one written on paper and attached to a clipboard — or a virtual document on your phone, tablet, or laptop. If it’s a digital document, it’s easier to share with other people.

Taking a headcount is a faster way to make sure people are on board the bus. It only takes a few moments and most people won’t mind. But a headcount alone won’t tell you who is missing if you are a person short. 

An attendance roster that includes both names and phone numbers lets you do a better job of keeping track of the people in your group.
