Pricing depends on the bus type, how long you need it, your date, and any stops along the route. A 15-passenger minibus for an airport run to Capital Region International Airport (LAN) costs differently than a 56-passenger charter bus for a full day of Spartan game-day shuttling.

You share your trip details once, then review available buses, amenities, and pricing side by side — all on one screen, in under a minute.
Through the network, you get access to TONS of different bus types, TONS of different amenities, and prices that fit YOUR budget. Want WiFi for a corporate shuttle? An onboard bar for a bachelorette night?
ADA-accessible seating for a religious group retreat? Just say so when you fill out the form, and the results will reflect what's available for your date and your needs.

What brings your group together, Kentwoodcharterbuscompany.com can help move you there! From Spartan game-day shuttles and airport transfers to corporate events, prom nights, and long-distance trips to Detroit or Grand Rapids — here's a look at the group transportation services you can find and book right here.

Rather than splitting your group across multiple cars — each fighting for parking at Capital Region International Airport (LAN) (4100 Capital City Blvd, Lansing, MI 48906) just 5 miles west of East Lansing — a private airport shuttle bus keeps everyone together, on schedule, and curbside at the right terminal.
For larger groups flying through Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) (2800 Laramie Dr, Romulus, MI 48174), the drive runs roughly 90 miles southeast on I-96 E — about 80 to 100 minutes off-peak, longer during Metro Detroit rush hours. A charter bus with reclining seats, climate control, and onboard WiFi turns that drive into productive or relaxing travel time instead of a stressful caravan. DTW charter bus pickup is at the lower-level arrivals curb in designated commercial zones outside baggage claim.
One important tip: gather your entire group and all luggage before calling the bus forward. The bus stages nearby and pulls to the curb once everyone is ready — not before. Fill out one quick form or call 616-360-2780 to compare airport shuttle options for your date!

It's game day for your favorite artist — and East Lansing and Lansing have the venues to match. Whether your group is heading to a touring Broadway production at Wharton Center for Performing Arts (750 E Shaw Ln, East Lansing, MI 48824) on the MSU campus, catching a show at the Breslin Student Events Center (531 E Circle Dr, East Lansing, MI 48824), or making the run to Huntington Place (1 Washington Blvd, Detroit, MI 48226) for a major arena concert, a charter bus or party bus keeps your whole group together from the first pickup to the final encore.
Wharton Center charter bus drop-off runs along E Shaw Lane at the main entrance, with oversized vehicle parking coordinated through MSU Parking Services. Post-concert crowds make rideshare pickups slow and expensive — a pre-arranged bus means your group is rolling home while everyone else is still watching the app. Compare concert buses from a network of companies serving East Lansing, and call 616-360-2780 to lock in your date!

Check corporate transportation off your list — Kentwoodcharterbuscompany.com makes it the easy part of event planning!

MSU's campus spans 5,200 acres and uses specific building addresses for GPS navigation — a 56-passenger motorcoach with WiFi, power outlets, and reclining seats handles the logistics while your team stays focused. For larger events at Huntington Place in Detroit (~90 miles via I-96 E), a full-size charter bus with undercarriage luggage bays and onboard restrooms makes the drive comfortable and productive. Compare corporate bus options from a network of providers serving East Lansing — call 616-360-2780 or fill out the form to get started!

Kentwoodcharterbuscompany.com puts a smarter commute within reach for East Lansing employers and their teams.

Set your pickup points, your timing, and your headcount, then compare available shuttle buses from a network of transportation providers serving the Greater Lansing area. Daily routes, weekly runs, temporary shuttles during construction or events, and multi-stop campus loops are all available.

Cross Kalamazoo Street on a Michigan State home football Saturday without a bus, and you'll understand immediately why fan groups book months in advance. On MSU home game days at Spartan Stadium (1 Spartan Way, East Lansing, MI 48824) — which seats 75,005 and fills completely for rivalry games — Shaw Lane, Farm Lane, and Kalamazoo Street all experience heavy traffic control and closures beginning 3 to 4 hours before kickoff. Rideshare pickup is staged remotely in Lot 10, a significant walk from the gates.
A charter bus drops your group at the designated motorcoach area in Lot 89 on Kalamazoo Street and picks everyone up after the final whistle.
Lot 89 motorcoach permits are purchased in advance through MSU Parking Services — day-of permits are not guaranteed, especially for the Michigan rivalry game and other marquee home dates. Book your game-day bus 3 to 6 months out for the best selection. Compare sports transportation options from a network of providers serving East Lansing — call 616-360-2780 to lock in your date!

Charter buses and motorcoaches are directed to Lot 89 on Kalamazoo Street, east of Spartan Stadium, for MSU home football games. Lot 89 motorcoach permits must be purchased in advance through MSU Parking Services — day-of permits are not guaranteed, especially for high-demand games like the Michigan rivalry and Penn State matchups. Roads including Shaw Lane, Kalamazoo Street, and Farm Lane experience heavy closures and traffic control beginning 3 to 4 hours before kickoff, so plan your arrival window accordingly and confirm current lot assignments and permit contacts with MSU Parking Services before game day.
Capital Region International Airport (LAN) is the closest airport at approximately 5 miles west of East Lansing, roughly 15 to 25 minutes via I-496 W and I-96 W off-peak. For groups needing more flight options or international connections, Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) is approximately 90 miles southeast on I-96 E — about 80 to 100 minutes off-peak, longer during Metro Detroit rush hours. Bishop International Airport (FNT) in Flint is about 50 miles north on US-127 N and takes roughly 50 to 60 minutes.
Build a 30-minute buffer on top of any drive time estimate for group boarding and terminal walking.
At Capital Region International Airport (LAN), charter bus pickup is at the lower-level arrivals curb outside baggage claim. LAN does not publish a dedicated commercial staging lot, so the bus stages off-site and pulls forward once your group is fully assembled curbside with all luggage in hand. Do not call the bus forward until every member of your group is together and ready to board — calling early while people are still at the carousel means the bus has to loop and come back, which costs time.
Coordinate your group's meeting point at baggage claim before you land.
The two busiest stretches for bus rentals in East Lansing are MSU home football season (September through November) and prom season (April through May). The Michigan rivalry game and other marquee home games at Spartan Stadium are the single highest-demand dates of the year — buses for those weekends are often booked 4 to 6 months in advance. Prom season across East Lansing, Okemos, Haslett, and Williamston school districts fills the same April and May weekends simultaneously.
MSU commencement in early May and homecoming in October also drive significant demand. Book as early as possible for any of these dates.
Yes — long-distance day trips and multi-day charters are available through the network. Detroit is approximately 90 miles southeast on I-96 E (80 to 100 minutes off-peak). Ann Arbor is about 60 miles east on I-96 E (55 to 70 minutes).
Grand Rapids is roughly 65 miles west on I-96 W (55 to 70 minutes). Full-size 56-passenger charter buses for these runs include reclining seats, climate control, onboard WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays. Fill out the form or call 616-360-2780 to compare long-distance options and pricing for your specific dates and destination.
Yes — ADA-accessible buses are available through the network of transportation providers serving East Lansing. Accessible vehicles typically include wheelchair ramps or lifts, wider aisle spacing, and ADA-compliant restroom facilities on full-size motorcoaches. Availability varies by operator and date, so the most important step is to mention your accessibility needs when you fill out the quote form or call 616-360-2780.
That way the results reflect vehicles that are actually available and equipped for your group on your specific date.
For most East Lansing trips, booking 3 to 6 months in advance gives you the best vehicle selection and pricing. For MSU home football games — especially the Michigan rivalry and Penn State matchups — book 4 to 6 months out, because motorcoach permits for Lot 89 are limited and high-demand dates sell out early. Prom season in April and May books out across the entire Mid-Michigan market simultaneously, so the earlier you lock in your date, the better your options.
The cheapest windows to rent a bus in East Lansing are typically January through early March and late November outside of Thanksgiving weekend — lower demand means more vehicles and more competitive pricing.
