CharterUP Expands Group Transportation Platform in D.C. and Orlando, Offering Enhanced Options for Groups of All Sizes

CharterUP, the first fully integrated charter bus marketplace for corporations, consumers and operators, today announced that luxury sprinter vans are now available on its award-winning charter services platform in Washington D.C. and Orlando. The cities are the latest markets where the luxury vehicles are available, following its initial launch across Texas and Southern California. The expansion provides more options for customers seeking group transportation, while welcoming a whole new category of local operators to its platform.

The addition of luxury sprinter vans to the CharterUP marketplace creates opportunities for more than 7,000 independent operators across North America who are sitting on underutilized fleets. Already hosting a network of more than 4,000 motorcoaches and minibusses, the CharterUP marketplace has added hundreds of luxury sprinter vans to meet the growing demand for group transportation services of all sizes.

“With the return to office and group travel, there is a growing demand for transportation services nationwide,” said Armir Harris, CEO and Founder of CharterUP. “Washington D.C. and Orlando stand out as top destinations but we recognize that not everyone requires a motorcoach. That’s why we are continuing to roll out hundreds of luxury sprinter vans in major markets across the U.S., to provide versatile and upscale travel options for our customers while welcoming a new category of operator partners to our platform.”

Hundreds of new luxury sprinter van operators have joined over 600 existing local bus operators nationwide who have teamed up with CharterUP to deliver premier charter services experiences with transparency and accountability, while leveraging its data-driven platform to increase bookings, enhance logistics and more.

“CharterUP has transformed the way we do business, replacing our old booking process with a streamlined data-driven marketplace, resulting in a greater than 20% boost in business,” said Saulo Ferreira, President at Master’s Charter. “We’re seeing the need for group transportation surge across Orlando and CharterUP’s latest expansion to include luxury sprinter vans on their platform enables us to meet that demand with the entirety of our fleet.”

With the strategic incorporation of sprinter vans, small groups of up to 12 passengers can book luxury travel without the high costs and coordination hassles of multiple rideshares or taxis. This addition to the fleet marks a significant step in making convenient group travel options more accessible and affordable, ensuring a premium travel experience from start to finish.

“Our new sprinter line is a testament to CharterUP’s commitment to providing efficient, affordable luxury travel options to groups of all sizes,” Harris continued. “In an industry where smaller parties often face the dilemma of choosing between luxury and affordability, our sprinter vans stand out as a solution that compromises on neither.”

The news comes on the heels of the company’s recognition as the second fastest-growing private company in the U.S. on the Inc. 5000 list for achieving 111,130% average revenue growth over the past three years.

With real-time availability, vehicle tracking, performance reviews and on-demand booking, CharterUP connects customers with available charters in under 60 seconds. By streamlining group transportation, CharterUP has become the top charter service provider for Fortune 500 companies including Amazon, Microsoft and Google and last year alone, helped eliminate over 1 billion miles worth of carbon emissions with 25 million miles driven.
