Booking data
These figures come from 86,891 quote requests submitted through Bus 2 Ride and its sister company-owned websites, with event dates between 2023 and 2026-09-14. They describe what people asked for—group size, timing, hours, vehicle—and what we quoted them at the time, not confirmed bookings or a price for any future trip. Every number is an aggregate over at least 25 records; nothing about any individual request is published.

Only metros with at least 25 company-owned-site requests are shown. Every other city page on this site deliberately shows no local statistic rather than borrowing a national number.
Cities named on at least 25 requests, drawn from the full 86,891-request set. Local lead time is not shown anywhere here: too few requests carry both a city and a usable request date for us to stand behind a city-level number.
Source. Quote requests stored in Bus 2 Ride’s customer system that were submitted through websites the company owns (Bus 2 Ride and its regional Party Ride, findmypartybus, partybusquotes, and limobusreservations sites). Requests that came in through outside lead buyers are excluded, so the figures reflect this company’s own audience and nobody else’s.
Queries. Aggregate-only SQL: counts, shares, and percentiles. Free-text fields, names, contact details, and addresses were never selected. Any group of fewer than 25 records is left out rather than published, and so is any single cell under 10. Passenger counts outside 2–120, durations that were not a plain number of hours, quoted totals outside $200–$12,000, and event dates more than two years after the request were dropped as data-entry errors.
What the numbers are not. They are not booking counts, not prices, not a promise of availability, and not a measure of any single market. City figures use the city written on the request, which is missing on most records; a city without a figure is a city without enough data.

Across 54,732 quote requests that name a headcount, the middle of our book is 15 passengers and half of every request lands between 10 and 20. The 15–20 band is the single biggest at 32%, while groups over 30 riders are only 6.4% of what comes in.
Thirty days is the median gap between the request and the trip, with the middle half falling between 13 and 67 days.

Across 7,252 four-hour trips, past quotes ran a median of $1,400 with the middle half between $1,200 and $1,700. Duration moves the number more than headcount does: six-hour trips have run a median $2,050 and eight-hour trips $2,500. These are historical totals across many markets, not a price for your date — call or chat and we will quote it.
