You should book your bus as soon as you know your trip details—ideally 4–6 weeks in advance—to lock in the best availability and pricing. Buses sell out quickly during peak times like spring break, summer vacation, holidays, and major events (e.g., weddings, festivals, school trips), so last-minute reservations may be subject to higher rates or limited vehicle selection.
