56 Passenger Shuttle Bus
The 56-passenger shuttle bus is the largest vehicle you can rent from Fort Smith Shuttle Bus Rentals, and it’s built for serious group travel. This is a modern, full-size motorcoach designed to move big crowds comfortably across any distance—whether you’re running a multi-bus wedding in downtown Fort Smith, getting a high school band to Little Rock, or shuttling construction crews out to a job site in Sebastian County. It seats up to 56 adults (or about 50 if you’ve got a lot of kids or need extra aisle space), and every seat comes with reclining backs, armrests, footrests, and either cloth or leatherette upholstery depending on the exact model. You get powerful HVAC, overhead parcel racks, reading lights, optional Wi-Fi and 110V outlets, video monitors with DVD/Blu-ray inputs, PA system, and a rear restroom with flushing toilet and sink. There’s tons of luggage space—both underfloor baggage bays and interior storage—and the ride quality is smooth even at highway speeds thanks to the air suspension.
