No. The Merritt Parkway (CT-15) prohibits commercial vehicles, including charter buses and school buses. If your trip takes your group south toward Stamford, Greenwich, Norwalk, or anywhere in Fairfield County, your bus will route via I-91 South to I-95 or along US-1 instead. This is one of the most important routing facts for Connecticut bus travel—and your bus handles the navigation so you never have to worry about it.
Bradley International Airport (BDL) is the closest major airport, about 35 miles north via I-91 North—roughly 40 to 50 minutes off-peak. Tweed New Haven Airport (HVN) is about 20 miles south, a quicker run for groups flying into the New Haven area. Both airports have designated ground transportation curb areas for charter bus pickup.
Have your full group assembled with all luggage before calling the bus forward, since vehicles stage nearby and pull to the curb when everyone is ready.

The right bus size depends on your headcount. A sprinter van handles up to about 14 passengers for a compact group. A 15–35 passenger minibus is ideal for medium-sized groups and fits easily on tighter city streets and campus roads.
A party bus seats 15 to 50 passengers and adds amenities like a built-in bar and LED lighting. A 56-passenger full-size charter bus is the right call for large groups, long distances, and trips requiring luggage bays and onboard restrooms. Not sure?
Fill out the form with your headcount and the network will show you what fits—or call 959-666-2820 and a team will help you choose!
Yes! Long-distance charter buses from Meriden to New York City, Boston, Providence, and destinations across the Northeast are available through the network. New York City is roughly 90 to 100 miles south via I-91 to I-95 (note: the Merritt Parkway is off-limits for commercial vehicles, so all southbound bus routes use I-95).
Boston is approximately 130 miles northeast via I-91 North to I-90. Full-size motorcoaches with reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and undercarriage luggage bays make the long haul comfortable for everyone. Compare long-distance options and get pricing right here!
For most trips in Meriden and Connecticut, booking three to six months in advance gives you the best selection and the best pricing. For high-demand dates—the Daffodil Festival (late April/early May), prom season (May–June), summer concert season at Xfinity Theatre and Mohegan Sun, fall foliage weekends at Lyman Orchards and Hubbard Park, and Yale Bowl football Saturdays—book as early as possible, ideally six months out or more. Waiting until the last minute almost always means higher rates and fewer vehicles to choose from.
The sooner you compare and lock in your date, the better your options!
