Parking a large bus downtown requires some advance planning, especially during major events like Back to the Bricks or a show at The Capitol Theatre. Designated drop-off zones are available near Saginaw Street, University of Michigan-Flint, and the Riverfront Conference Center. For long-term parking, we recommend the lots at Dort Financial Center, Kettering University, or the former Chevy Commons site. Always check with your destination about bus access and permits—some streets have weight restrictions or low clearances. If you’re visiting multiple stops (e.g., restaurants, museums, nightlife), we can coordinate pickups on side streets or arrange a continuous loop shuttle.

While rare, mechanical issues or traffic delays can happen. If your bus is running behind schedule, our dispatch team will notify you immediately and provide real-time updates via phone or text. In the event of a breakdown, we’ll send a replacement vehicle from our fleet or partner network as quickly as possible—usually within 1-2 hours depending on location. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we’ll do everything we can to minimize disruption to your plans. For time-sensitive trips like airport transfers or wedding ceremonies, we suggest building in extra buffer time just in case.
