Local planning
Starting points. Wilkes-Barre requests most often begin in Downtown Wilkes-Barre, Public Square, South Wilkes-Barre and Heights. Name the building and the entrance. Staging space and approach angle decide the pickup more than the postcode does.
Where we drop. Destinations named for Wilkes-Barre include Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza, F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts, Mohegan Sun Pocono, Wilkes University campus and Genetti Hotel. Tell us which one you are going to and we will sort the staging with them.
When the calendar tightens. Local calendars around Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins hockey, Cherry Blossom Festival, Mohegan Sun Arena concerts and Fine Arts Fiesta concentrate demand into a handful of weekends. Those weekends go early. Worth pricing as soon as your date is fixed.
Popular runs. Downtown Wilkes-Barre bar crawl; Mohegan Sun Pocono casino shuttle; Mohegan Sun Arena concert shuttle; Wilkes-Barre to Camelback/Montage Mountain ski (25 min). Give us the full sequence rather than the highlights; the last stop is usually the one that moves the number.
Airport groups. Wilkes-Barre trips connect to AVP. Provide flight numbers, terminal, bag counts, and one group contact; the driver meets at the commercial-vehicle zone, which is usually not the passenger curb.
Beyond Wilkes-Barre. Trips that continue into Abington, Allentown, Altoona or Bensalem are quoted as one itinerary. The Pennsylvania guide covers statewide staging and long-distance planning.
Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza and Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins hockey set the schedule for game-day groups in Wilkes-Barre: the official start time fixes the arrival window, and the exit crowd fixes the pickup. Ask the venue where commercial vehicles stage, agree on one post-event meeting corner that everyone can find, and give the driver a 30–45 minute cushion after the final whistle rather than a fixed minute.
Trips built around Wilkes University campus work best when the organizer names the exact building entrance and confirms current access rules with the school before the pickup time is set. Separate the student count from guests, allow real boarding time between scheduled activities, and for prom or graduation confirm the school's own transportation policy before booking.
For a Wilkes-Barre night out anchored on Downtown Wilkes-Barre bar crawl and Wilkes-Barre to Scranton nightlife (20 min), fix the stop order and the last pickup time before requesting a quote, and name one group contact for the driver. Curb space is not guaranteed at busy venues, so agree on a pickup corner a short walk away, and check each venue's group entry policy so a bus full of people is not turned away at the door.
Vehicle fit
Pick by confirmed headcount, then by luggage and trip length. Your contract names the exact vehicle, its seating capacity and what is on board.
| Group size | Usual fit | Why | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6–14 passengers | Stretch limo or Sprinter van | Tight downtown streets, valet-style arrivals, and shorter time blocks. | See limousines |
| 14–24 passengers | Mid-size party bus | The most-requested size on our own sites; standing room, sound, and a restroom-free footprint that fits most venue curbs. | See party buses |
| 24–40 passengers | Large party bus or mini coach | Wedding shuttles, corporate transfers, and big birthday groups that need everyone on one vehicle. | Compare large buses |
| 40+ passengers | Full-size coach bus | Luggage bays, restrooms, and highway comfort for long days, tournaments, and multi-city itineraries. | See coach buses |
How pricing is built—hours, mileage, day of week, season, stops—is explained on the pricing page. Every quote is trip-specific and all-inclusive.
From our own booking data
Wilkes-Barre does not yet have 25 company-owned-site requests with a usable city field, so we do not publish Wilkes-Barre-only group size or lead-time figures. These nationwide numbers still apply to how groups size vehicles and when they request a quote.
History on night-out trips: a median quote of $1,580 and a middle half of $1,300 to $1,930, before your date, hours and route move it.

Questions
Yes. We run trips in Wilkes-Barre and right across Pennsylvania with our own buses and our own chauffeurs. Booking is quick and it all happens by phone, live chat, or email, so you never have to drive anywhere to sort it out. Tell us the date, where you are starting, and where you are headed, and we will get you a price. The agreement is signed electronically once you are happy with it.
Every Wilkes-Barre quote is priced for the specific trip: vehicle type, date and day of week, hours, mileage, group size, number of stops, and season all change the number. Quotes are all-inclusive—driver gratuity, taxes, fuel, and ordinary fees are in the written price; tolls and any specifically disclosed exceptions are listed separately. Ask for a written quote rather than relying on a range.
Party buses on the Bus 2 Ride fleet pages seat 8–45 passengers, limousines seat 8–22, shuttle and coach buses run 8–56. Go one size up from your headcount. Between the coolers and the coats it fills faster than people expect; Sprinters handle 8 to 14.
Yes. Multi-stop itineraries are the most common request in Wilkes-Barre—for example, Downtown Wilkes-Barre bar crawl or Mohegan Sun Pocono casino shuttle. List every stop in order with an expected wait time at each so the quote covers the full time block rather than a point-to-point estimate.
Yes. For AVP transfers, share flight numbers, terminal, passenger and bag counts, and one group contact. Airports assign commercial-vehicle pickup zones that differ from the passenger curb, so the driver will confirm the exact meeting point, and the quote should state how flight delays and wait time are handled.
Penguins hockey season (Oct–Apr), ski season (Dec–Mar), and Mohegan Sun events drive year-round demand. Across Bus 2 Ride's own sites, groups request quotes a median of 30 days ahead, but Friday and Saturday dates around major local events tighten first. For Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins hockey and Cherry Blossom Festival, request a quote as soon as the date is fixed—4–8 weeks out is comfortable, and wedding groups typically ask three months or more ahead.
No. Sending the form starts it. We check what we have free on your date, send a written price, and the bus is yours once you sign. Roughly half up front, the rest before the trip — your agreement spells out the exact terms for Wilkes-Barre.
