There’s no denying it: when it comes to coordinating a conference, networking social, or corporate outing, Phoenix has a lot of potential for business events big and small. But when alcohol is involved, planning can get tricky. For example, how can you be sure your attendees have a reliable and responsible ride between events? One way is rent a Phoenix charter bus for your conference

There are many reasons why an event organizer may want to rent a Phoenix charter bus—and the reassurance of a safe and lawful transportation service is one of them!

Here are two reasons why:

1. Most private bus rentals allow alcohol consumption onboard.

While federal law TEA-21 prohibits open containers in personal vehicles, there’s no litigation that prohibits passengers from drinking beer, wine, and spirits on minibuses, charter buses, or other motorcoach rentals that transport people for hire. This means that if your organization wanted to offer a post-conference “cheers” after a long day of networking and presentations, your passengers would legally be in the clear.

About 4 out of 5 charter bus companies allow alcohol aboard their buses—and when you rent a bus with a nationwide motorcoach network like GOGO Charters, you won’t have to wade through listing after listing to find one that does. Simply let your reservation specialist know that your passengers will be partaking in libations while on the road, and they will be able to connect you to a charter bus rental that can accommodate your requests.

2. Your attendees will have a designated driver for every event.

Even if your event organizers don’t plan on serving alcohol while on the road or if your passengers don’t plan on drinking in your group transportation rental, having a reliable and safe corporate bus rental is always a plus.

Rent a charter bus through any DOT-certified bus provider, and your bus rental will include the services of a seasoned bus driver. These certified professionals have years of experience behind the wheel, clean background checks, and all the practical travel knowledge you’d expect from someone who transports large groups of people for a living. And besides helping everyone load their luggage and taking care of navigation for the duration of your event, your bus driver can also act as a designated driver for everyone aboard. Rather than hailing multiple taxis after dinner with their colleagues, your guests and attendees can simply hop aboard a personalized shuttle service that operates on a schedule you create and let the professionals handle the rest.

So if you’re looking for ways to provide your Phoenix conference attendees with peace of mind, consider booking a group transportation service like a minibus shuttle or a charter bus rental. These private transportation options can offer a responsible way for guests to travel between hotels, meeting venues, the airport, and dinner reservations—and the comfort-minded perks like free onboard WiFi, power outlets, and reclining seats won’t hurt either!
