These are the flights I am enquiring about a coach/minibus for. Might be tempted to book at this price so would be interested in a seat on your minibus if it goes ahead Gary.

I have received two quotes for minibuses so far. 2,090 euros for a 19 seater (110 each) 1,659 euros for a 16 seater (103 each) Seems very pricey to me compared to the quotes I was getting for a 50 seater! What do you all think? One way or the other we all need to get back for the 7.30 flight. Would it be easier/cheaper if we hired two 9 seaters from an actual rental place and someone offer to drive?

binobear Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 2 of us here fine with mini bus - what's the price in pounds - about £80? No great but as you say, we all need to get back to CDG airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie the scot Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 I'd be interested in 2 spaces if something gets sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Stirling Posted March 12, 2016 Author Share Posted March 12, 2016 No problem. Hopefully numbers pick up and we can go for the cheaper 50 seater. Also getting a quote for a 34 seater which might be easier. Cheers everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Gary There is no much price difference between a 50 or 25 (or less) seater. That's why you should go for the biggest one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Stirling Posted March 13, 2016 Author Share Posted March 13, 2016 I know but we obviously want it organised as soon as possible and the numbers are no where near 50 so that's why I was looking at alternatives. If we had 50 right away it would have been great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will give everyone another week to see if we can get a few more and if not will book with what we have. We will have 18 including yourself with another 5 going one way and another 3 going one way the other way. Will also confirm this week with coach companies hopefully if they ever get back to me and decide what one we are going with. Cheers.

Gary Stirling Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 I have received a quote from Standing Euro Tours Paris for a 24 seater for 1959 euros. I have the following people included in my numbers, please let me know ASAP if you no longer require them. Gary Stirling - 1 Binobear - 2 Anfield'77 - 2 Maradona75 - 2 Shugbarr - 3 Burnsy84 - 3 Stevie the scot - 2 Jaggy dwg - 2 Killie97 - 1 bbfi65 - 1 Total = 19 Jackhayes17 - 5 (one way to Metz) Scot_singh - 3 (one way to CDG) This would mean the bus is full on the way to Metz but 2 seats spare if anyone needed back to CDG. Based on the current numbers of 24 & 22, I think the fairest way of calculating the price would be to split the costs in to two mini trips, 980 euros between 24 to Metz and 980 euros between 22 coming back, which would be 85 euros for a return trip, 41 euros for one way to Metz and 44 euros for one way to CDG. This is around £68 - £70 each, hope everyone is ok with that, it's the best I could do unfortunately with the numbers involved. I have went back to them and asked for payment arrangements and will let you all know, expecting a 50% deposit probably with balance 1 to 2 weeks before. If you have any thoughts then please feel free to share. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
