Why Altoona Hospitals Choose Charter Bus Company Altoona
Hospitals and healthcare providers across Altoona trust Charter Bus Company Altoona because we offer the largest fleet of buses in Pennsylvania and a reservation team that’s available 24/7/365. Whether you need an ongoing shuttle contract for UPMC Altoona or a last-minute replacement vehicle after a snowstorm on I-99, we can dispatch anything from an ADA-accessible minibus to a 56-passenger charter bus in under an hour. Our team has worked with major medical systems like UPMC, Geisinger, and Penn State Health, so we understand the unique challenges of healthcare transportation—including shift changes, HIPAA compliance, and coordinating multiple pickup points across Blair County.

Custom Shuttle Plans for Every Healthcare Facility
No two hospitals are the same, which is why we build every shuttle plan from scratch. Need to move nurses from downtown Altoona to a new outpatient center in Logan Township? We’ll design a route that hits every stop on time—even during rush hour on 17th Street or Pleasant Valley Boulevard. Want to offer late-night service for third-shift workers at Tyrone Hospital or James E. Van Zandt VA Medical Center? We can run buses 24/7 with flexible schedules that match your staffing patterns. You pick the stops, times, and frequency; we handle the rest.
We also serve smaller clinics, urgent care centers, and long-term care facilities across Blair, Cambria, and Centre counties. From daily loops between parking lots and main entrances to weekly trips bringing patients from rural areas like Bellwood or Cresson into town for appointments, no job is too big or too small.

A few of the companies Charter Bus Company Altoona has worked with





Amenity-rich Buses That Keep People Comfortable
Our fleet includes every size and style of bus you could need, all loaded with amenities that make commuting easier. Choose a 25- to 35-passenger minibus for short hops around campus or a full-size 56-passenger motorcoach for longer routes between Altoona and Johnstown. Onboard features include reclining seats, climate control, free Wi-Fi, power outlets, and overhead storage for backpacks or medical equipment. Need ADA accessibility? We have wheelchair lifts, priority seating, and extra-wide aisles to accommodate riders with mobility challenges.
For hospitals looking to stand out, we offer custom wraps and branding options so your shuttle can display your logo, colors, or health messages. It’s a great way to promote your organization while providing a valuable service to staff and visitors.
Serving All of Central Pennsylvania
Charter Bus Company Altoona operates across the entire state, but we’re especially proud of our work in Central PA. We’ve run hospital shuttles in Altoona, State College, Johnstown, Harrisburg, and more—connecting major medical centers like Mount Nittany Health, Conemaugh Memorial, and UPMC Pinnacle with their surrounding communities. Our buses regularly travel along I-99, US-22, and PA-764, so we know how to navigate the region’s highways and back roads in any season.
Planning a multi-site operation? We can coordinate simultaneous routes serving multiple campuses or partner organizations. For example, we’ve helped hospitals set up joint shuttles with local universities, government offices, and business parks to share costs and improve coverage.
Affordable Rates and Flexible Contracts
Budget is always a concern in healthcare, which is why we offer some of the most competitive rates in the industry. Our pricing is transparent and all-inclusive, with no additional fees or surcharges. You’ll pay a flat hourly or daily rate based on the size of the bus and length of the contract, making it easy to plan ahead and stay within your financial limits.
We offer flexible terms ranging from month-to-month agreements to multi-year partnerships, so you can scale service up or down as needed. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we helped several clients add extra buses for social distancing, then adjust schedules as conditions changed. Whatever your situation, we’ll work with you to get you a solution that fits.
