Public-data transportation research

U.S. airport passenger data for group-trip planning

Find My Party Bus analyzed the FAA's final calendar-year 2024 commercial-airport workbook to make passenger scale and year-over-year direction easier to inspect. These are passenger boardings, not party-bus demand, quotes, bookings, arrivals, or unique travelers.

Methodology and quality checks

  1. Downloaded the FAA's final CY 2024 commercial-service airport Excel workbook, published September 15, 2025.
  2. Preserved FAA airport identifiers, rank, service level, hub category, annual boarding counts, and published percentage change.
  3. Retained 513 airport-grain records and excluded blank worksheet rows and summary labels from record calculations.
  4. Confirmed unique airport identifiers, populated required fields, nonnegative annual counts, and percentage-change reconciliation.
  5. Calculated the aggregate and state totals from source counts. The page does not estimate ground-transportation share.

Retrieved 2026-08-02. FAA ranks are preserved and may contain gaps because this is the commercial-service subset. Preliminary 2025 figures were intentionally excluded because final 2025 data had not yet been published at retrieval.

$245–$355
Typical night out (4 hours)
$1,300–$1,580
Starting hourly rates by group size, across all markets

21–30 passengers$280–$400
31–40 passengers$305–$450
41–60 passengers$300–$450

Your price depends on the date, the city, how many hours you need, the bus and your group size. These come from quotes we have actually sent: the low end up to the middle of the range. Busy Saturdays cost more, quiet weeknights less. Minimum hours, the drive to your pickup, tolls and gratuity all move the final number.

What we see in real requests

Taken from quote requests people sent us. These are requests, not completed trips.

  • 61% of every request we get is for a Saturday, and another 20% for a Friday. That is why Saturday availability is the first thing to ask about.

    All markets · June 2023 – August 2026

  • Requests peak in April, July, and August, when prom, graduation, and wedding season all land at once. Spring dates are the ones that go first.

    All markets · June 2023 – August 2026

  • 4 hours is by far the most common ask: 71% of the requests that name a length come in at exactly that. Another 18% want 6 hours or more.

Airport data questions

How do I get a quote?

Send the date, the pickup city, every stop in order, the hours you need and a firm headcount through the quote form, or call (844) 725-4257. We price it against companies that cover your route. A quote isn't a booking and doesn't hold a vehicle for you.

Is Find My Party Bus the company that shows up on the day?

No. It's a reservation service that coordinates independent transportation providers, and it owns no vehicles and employs no drivers. The company covering your route assigns the vehicle, employs the driver, holds the operating authority and insurance, and issues the contract. Ask for its USDOT number and look it up on FMCSA's SAFER site before you pay.

Which cities and states do you cover?

Coverage gets confirmed route by route rather than advertised as a map, because who's available moves with the date and the trip. City and state pages exist where local planning content has been written and checked against public sources. If your city doesn't have one, your request still gets quoted the same way.

Why is there no price list on the site?

Because the same trip prices differently by market, date, vehicle class, how far the bus travels to your first stop, and local supply that weekend. A published rate would mislead more often than it helped. Compare written totals broken out line by line for one identical itinerary instead.

Are the reviews on this site real?

Yes. The reviews shown come from a stored set of customer reviews submitted to us, displayed as they came in. Nothing is generated to fill space. Read them as one person's experience with one company, not as a promise about your own trip or your own market.

Where do the statistics on this site come from?

From aggregate, privacy-reviewed analysis of quote requests sent through the network. They describe inquiries — people asking for information — not bookings, completed trips, prices paid or availability. Every figure shows the group it came from and the period it covers, and the method is written up at /methodology/customer-inquiry-data.

What should I have ready before I call?

The date, pickup and drop-off addresses, every stop in order, the one arrival time that can't move, a firm headcount, luggage and any accessibility needs. Having that in front of you is what makes quotes from different companies genuinely comparable.

Tell us about your night

Send us the date, where you are going and how many people. You get a real price back, and the company that runs the bus takes it from there.

No obligation. Written quotes from a reservation agent. Availability varies by date, vehicle, and provider.
