Roger was a delight to have as our driver both ways to and from O'Hare airport from Grace Church in Racine, WI. He was on time and very friendly and helpful. Glad we used First Charter! Thank you... See more
The whole experience was seemless. The scheduler went over and above to get what we needed and was even able to help get us a discount. The bus drivers were awesome and we loved every second of it.
First Student provided a solid experience for our two day event. The bus was timely and the driver was very courteous to our shuttle guests.

It took a lot to get our trips scheduled due to not receiving a call back in a timely manner. However once I was able to talk with someone and get our trips booked everything went great.
The buses were in time and the drivers were very nice.
All in all I am very happy with our service.

I thought our driver was extremely friendly and a safe driver. She was patience and understanding when the field trip was running a few minutes behind. It would be nice if your company could accommodate an earlier pick up time, prior to 9:30am, but we understand scheduling for right now is a big part of scheduling.
