Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) is the closest commercial airport to Margate by road, about 18 miles and 30 minutes without traffic via I-95 and SR 870. Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) is next at 38 miles. A school and youth group transportation booking can include the airport transfer at each end of the trip, so list the flight numbers when you request a quote.
Carriers in the BusBrother network require drivers to pass background checks covering criminal history, motor vehicle record and FMCSA drug and alcohol testing (49 CFR Part 382), and every driver holds a CDL. Carriers can document these checks for your school or district. If your district requires fingerprint-based or state-level screening for anyone working with students, note it at booking so the carrier can confirm driver eligibility.
Many charter carriers use GPS fleet tracking, and some can share a live location link with school staff during a trip. Availability varies by carrier, so ask for tracking at booking if your school wants it. Teachers and chaperones on board can also send updates, and the carrier's dispatch can confirm the vehicle's location and estimated arrival time on request.
School-rate pricing for charters billed to a school, district or PTA typically runs 10-20% below standard corporate rates, and registered nonprofit youth organizations can ask for similar pricing. Send the trip date, destination, group size and hours when you request a quote. Booking 4 to 8 weeks ahead for weekday field trips also helps secure the best rates and vehicle choice.
