A local Vista middle school coordinated an end-of-year field trip for 120 students and chaperones to Disneyland Park in Anaheim. Because the group had a strict budget and wanted to keep transportation costs down, the district booked two school buses through Shuttlebus.net for a full-day charter service. Each bus had seating for up to 60 passengers, so there was plenty of room for students and teachers to ride together. The school arranged pickup at 7:00 a.m. from the campus parking lot, with a drop-off at Disneyland’s designated bus loop on Harbor Boulevard. The drivers remained on standby during the day and provided return service at 7:00 p.m. after the park closed. The entire trip took about 1 hour 15 minutes each way, depending on traffic through Orange County.The total cost for both school buses was $3,800, which included driver and parking fees at the resort.
