Amenities Available on our 18 Passenger Minibuses in Grand Forks
Wi-Fi
Stay connected on the road with optional 4G/5G Wi-Fi available on all 18-passenger minibuses. Perfect for business travelers heading to UND or corporate parks along South Washington, the wireless network supports email, video calls, and streaming. Guests can share photos from events at the Alerus Center or book dinner reservations downtown while in transit. Data packages are customizable to fit short local shuttles or longer trips to Fargo and Devils Lake.
Onboard Restrooms
Several of our 18-passenger minibus models can be equipped with a compact onboard restroom, making them ideal for longer trips or schedules with limited stopping opportunities. This amenity is especially useful for sports teams traveling to regional tournaments, corporate groups heading to meetings in Fargo or Devils Lake, or wedding parties moving between rural venues. The restroom is typically located at the rear of the cabin and includes a toilet with hand-sanitizer or a small sink. If a restroom is required, please specify when booking so we can assign a minibus with this feature.
Onboard TVs
Keep everyone entertained or informed with multiple flat-screen monitors placed throughout the cabin. Our minibuses feature DVD/Blu-ray players and HDMI inputs for laptops or gaming consoles. Ideal for sports teams reviewing game footage en route to the Ralph Engelstad Arena, corporate groups watching presentations, or wedding parties enjoying a custom video playlist, the integrated sound system ensures clear audio. Larger screens are mounted at the front, with additional monitors mid-cabin for easy viewing from any seat.
Power Outlets
Every row on our 18-passenger minibus includes 110V power outlets and USB-A/C ports, so devices stay charged the entire trip. Business travelers can run laptops for UND meetings, while event guests keep phones powered for photos and navigation. The electrical system supports multiple devices simultaneously without overloading. Larger electronics—such as projectors or medical equipment—can also be accommodated with advance notice.
Climate Control with Personal Air Vents
Advanced climate control keeps the cabin comfortable year-round, from humid summers to subzero winters. Passengers can adjust temperature settings in their section, with powerful A/C and heating units distributed throughout the minibus. Ceiling-mounted air vents provide consistent airflow and rapid cooling or warming. The system is designed to maintain a stable environment even during frequent stops or when doors are open for loading.
Leather Seating
Ergonomic high-back seats upholstered in premium vinyl or leatherette provide both comfort and durability. The seating arrangement allows groups to sit together, with optional layouts that include forward-facing rows or a rear conference area. Armrests, reclining backs, and adjustable headrests make it easy to relax or catch up on work. Upholstery is easy to clean and resistant to spills or stains.
Overhead & Undercarriage Storage
Store bags, backpacks, and small cases in the overhead parcel racks that run along both sides of the aisle. Larger items—such as sports equipment, musical instruments, or presentation materials—can be placed in the rear cargo area accessible from outside the minibus. There’s ample storage space for luggage on airport runs, gear for athletic teams, or supplies for trade shows and events.
