Unique Seating Combination
23 fixed seats plus 7 folding seats
Fixed Seats
About 23 passengers can use the standard fixed seats for a more comfortable ride.
Folding Seats
Seven additional folding seats increase capacity to 30 for staff and short shuttle routes.
Best Operational Use
Designed for staff and shuttle efficiency
The folding-seat layout makes this bus especially useful for staff transportation, employee pickup and drop-off, hotel shuttles, exhibitions, schools, universities and short local transfers where passengers travel without large luggage.
For tourists who expect fixed reclining seats, generous spacing and a dedicated luggage hold, we normally recommend a 33 or 35 seater luxury coach instead.
Airport Capacity
About 16 passengers with 16 suitcases
Recommended Passengers
About 16 passengers is the practical airport group size when each traveller has one suitcase.
Rear Seats Used for Luggage
Luggage normally occupies about four rear seats and the folding-seat area because there is no dedicated luggage compartment.
