School trip coach checklist Limburg
- Determine group size — count the number of pupils and supervisors and choose the right vehicle type (minibus 8–16, mid-size coach 25–35, large coach up to 60 passengers).
- Fix destination and route — choose a destination that suits the age group and budget. Discuss the route with FlyBuzz for a realistic journey time estimate.
- Reserve date and time — book as early as possible, at least 4 weeks in advance. Popular periods fill up quickly.
- Check safety requirements — verify that the carrier is certified and that vehicles have seatbelts. At FlyBuzz this is guaranteed as standard.
- Gather medical information — record medications, allergies and special needs of pupils before the trip begins.
- Agree luggage policy — give pupils clear instructions about maximum luggage size and what may be brought on the coach.
- Collect consent forms — ensure you have signed consent forms from all parents or guardians.
- Prepare an emergency plan — make sure you have the contact details of the driver, the transport company and the school to hand during the trip.
