OUR STORY
Boston Common Coach started operating in 1994 as an airport shuttle serving various hotels in the Metro Boston area. In 2004 the company transformed itself into a charter service and grew to become a valuable partner to many local corporations and educational institutions.
Our late model luxury vans, and cleaner biodiesel powered engines propel our luxury coach buses throughout the eastern part of the United States. Through its dedicated staff members, including sales associates and chauffeurs, we have operated on the principles of integrity and outmost respect towards our clients, the public and the environment for over 20 years.
