We help you compare airport shuttle buses for every group size heading to or from Sarasota Bradenton International Airport (SRQ) (6000 Airport Circle, Sarasota, FL 34243) — or making the longer run up I-75 to Tampa International Airport (TPA) (4100 George J Bean Pkwy, Tampa, FL 33607), about 60 miles north. Instead of splitting your group across multiple rideshares or leaving half your party hunting for parking, one bus keeps everyone together from door to curb.
At SRQ, ground transportation pickups stage at the west end of the terminal, near the baggage claim area — have your whole group, with all luggage in hand, at the arrivals curb before calling for pickup, so the bus can pull straight in and load without circling. Check the SRQ ground transportation page for current curbside access details before your trip. For TPA arrivals, pickup is curbside at the baggage claim level of your terminal.

Whether your group is heading to a Broadway touring show at Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall (777 N Tamiami Trail, Sarasota, FL 34236), a performance at the Sarasota Opera House (61 N Pineapple Ave, Sarasota, FL 34236), or a larger concert up in Tampa, a concert bus rental keeps your whole group together from the first pickup through the final bow. Van Wezel drops off on N Tamiami Trail at the main entrance — and the bus stages in the north end of the adjacent city lot while you are inside, so there is no parking scramble and no surge pricing on the way home.
Downtown Sarasota parking on a sold-out show night is tight. The Pineapple Avenue Garage (45 N Pineapple Ave) and the Palm Avenue Garage (60 S Palm Ave) fill fast on event evenings. One bus means one pickup, one drop-off, and nobody circling downtown looking for a spot.

ADA-accessible vehicles are available through the network too — just mention it when you request your quote.

Just fill out one form to compare buses for government meetings, personnel moves, training events, and multi-day transportation throughout the Sarasota area and beyond.

Start planning your Sarasota prom transportation early — because prom season (April and May) is one of the single busiest stretches of the year for bus rentals across Sarasota County. Riverview High School, Sarasota High School, Cardinal Mooney, Venice High, North Port High — every school in the area has their dance scheduled in the same narrow window, and the buses go fast. Waiting until the last minute means higher prices and fewer choices.

Fortmyerscharterbuscompany.com is an advertising and quote-comparison website. It is not a local bus company, not a motor carrier, and it does not own any vehicles.

Sarasota's peak season runs November through April, when snowbirds arrive and the population swells significantly. Traffic on US-41, parking near the beaches and downtown, and bus availability all tighten during this window. Spring training at Ed Smith Stadium (February–March) and the Sarasota County Fair (late March–early April) add extra demand on top of the seasonal baseline.
If your trip falls during peak season, book three to six months in advance to secure the best pricing and the widest vehicle selection. Summer (June–August) is generally the easiest time to find availability and competitive pricing.
Book at least three to four months before your game date — ideally as soon as the Baltimore Orioles spring training schedule is released in the fall. February and March are among the busiest months for bus rentals in Sarasota, and vehicles for popular game dates fill quickly. Waiting until the week of the game almost always means higher prices and limited choices.
Call 239-747-1620 as soon as you have your game date and headcount to lock in the best options.
Yes — but there is no dedicated bus parking at Siesta Key Public Beach (948 Beach Rd, Siesta Key, FL 34242). Buses drop off at the main beach access on Beach Road and must stage on Midnight Pass Road or return to the mainland while the group is at the beach. Siesta Key's public parking fills by 8–9am on summer and holiday weekends, and the Stickney Point Road bridge backs up significantly on busy afternoons.
A charter bus drop-off is genuinely the most practical way to get a group to Siesta Key — it skips the parking entirely and the bus picks everyone up at a pre-arranged time.
Bus drop-off at Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall is on N Tamiami Trail (US-41) at the main entrance. Oversized vehicles use the far north end of the adjacent City of Sarasota parking lot for staging. On sold-out show nights, downtown parking fills fast and US-41 backs up — one bus drops your whole group at the door and stages nearby, so nobody is circling for a spot or paying surge pricing on the way home.
Check the Van Wezel website for current event and parking details before your visit.
Absolutely! Long-distance charter buses are available through the network for runs from Sarasota to Tampa (about 60 miles up I-75), Orlando (about 2 hours via I-75 to I-4), Miami, Fort Myers, Jacksonville, and destinations across Florida and beyond. Full-size motorcoaches come with reclining seats, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, and large undercarriage luggage bays — everything your group needs for a comfortable long-distance trip.

Yes. ADA-accessible vehicles with rear or side wheelchair lifts, wider aisle space, and accessible onboard restrooms are available through the network of transportation companies serving Sarasota. Just mention your accessibility requirements — including the number of passengers who need accessible boarding and any specific equipment needs — when you fill out the quote form or call 239-747-1620.
A support team can help match you with the right vehicle for your group's needs.
For most Sarasota trips, booking three to six months in advance gives you the best pricing and the widest vehicle selection. For peak-demand dates — spring training (February–March), prom season (April–May), the Sarasota County Fair (late March–early April), and any date during the November–April snowbird season — book as early as possible, ideally six months or more out. Prom season is especially competitive: every high school in Sarasota County has their dance in the same narrow April–May window, and vehicles fill fast.
Waiting until the last minute will cost you more money and limit your options. Call 239-747-1620 as soon as you have your date locked in!
