Getting around Philadelphia with a group
- Philadelphia International Airport (PHL). PHL lists numbered ground-transportation zones: sedan, limousine and van services use Zone 6 on the Commercial Transportation Roadway, and charter buses and couriers use Zone 8. Operator permit rules are not stated on that page.[1]
- Coach parking for Independence Park visitors is at the Callowhill Bus Center on Callowhill Street between 2nd and 3rd Streets, per the National Park Service.[2]
- At the South Philadelphia Sports Complex, police direct traffic leaving after games along fixed routes that may differ from the way in, so allow extra time for bus pick-ups after events.[3]
- At PHL, charter buses load at Zone 8 and limousine or van services at Zone 6, so groups should confirm which zone their operator uses.[1]
Check an operator before you pay a deposit
Carriers crossing state lines need USDOT/FMCSA operating authority, which you can check on FMCSA's company snapshot (SAFER).[4]
Drinks on board in PA
Pennsylvania generally bars open alcohol containers in a vehicle on a highway, but a law-firm summary of 75 Pa.C.S. 3809 says the restriction does not reach buses or limousines, which are treated as permissible vehicles. Confirm with the operator, since the statute text itself could not be opened for this guide. (75 Pa.C.S. 3809)[5]
General information, not legal advice. Operators set their own rules, and underage drinking is illegal in every state.
