Let’s say a local Pensacola high school books a charter bus for a two-day field trip to the Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee.

Final cost including gratuity: $4,600.

Or maybe a Pensacola corporate office is hosting a team-building retreat at a beachfront resort in Destin. They need a shuttle bus to transport employees back and forth between the office and the resort over three days. Their quote comes out to $5,700, and they add a 10% tip for the driver. Final cost including gratuity: $6,270.

Finally, a wedding party in Pensacola arranges guest transportation between the hotel, ceremony, and reception venues. They rent a minibus for $1,800 and include a 15% tip. Final cost including gratuity: $2,070.
