Amenities Available on our 18 Passenger Minibuses in St. Joseph
Wi-Fi
Every 18-passenger minibus we offer can be equipped with high-speed 4G/5G Wi-Fi, perfect for staying connected on longer routes between St. Joseph and Kansas City or while stuck in I-29 construction traffic. Passengers can stream music, join Zoom calls, or catch up on email from any seat.
Onboard Restrooms
Several of our 18-passenger minibuses—such as the Grech GM33—can be built with an optional onboard half-bathroom located at the rear of the cabin. This is ideal for longer trips down I-29 to Kansas City, sports team travel, or any itinerary where quick restroom access is important. The restroom is fully enclosed for privacy and includes hand-sanitizing facilities.
Onboard TVs
Flat-screen monitors are standard on most 18-passenger minibuses, with screens mounted at the front and mid-cabin for easy viewing. These TVs support DVD playback and HDMI input for laptops or gaming consoles, making it easy to show training videos, movie entertainment, or game film reviews. Perfect for school trips, corporate outings, or sports teams heading to games across Northwest Missouri.
Power Outlets
Each minibus comes equipped with multiple 110V power outlets and USB charging ports distributed throughout the cabin. Passengers can keep phones, tablets, and laptops powered up for the entire journey. This is especially useful for business travelers heading to corporate events in downtown St. Joseph or students on academic field trips.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced climate control systems ensure the cabin stays comfortable year-round, with powerful air conditioning for hot Missouri summers and efficient heating for winter months. Individual air vents above each seat allow passengers to adjust airflow to their preference, maintaining a consistent temperature throughout the vehicle.
Leather Seating
Our 18-passenger minibuses feature high-back seats upholstered in premium leatherette or optional full-leather trim. The seats are contoured for comfort, offer reclining functionality, and include padded headrests. This upscale seating is ideal for wedding parties, executive groups, or anyone looking for a comfortable ride.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Carry-on bags and personal items can be stored in spacious overhead racks running the length of the cabin. For larger luggage, sports equipment, or presentation materials, the minibus offers undercarriage storage compartments accessible from outside the vehicle. There’s plenty of room for all your gear, whether heading to a tournament, airport, or conference.
