When 90 English students found themselves without transportation at a French port, BCS Bus arranged alternative buses within 4 hours, ensuring their educational trip to Switzerland continued with minimal delay.
An English school group of 90 students and teachers arrived at a French port via ferry for their planned educational trip to Switzerland. Upon arrival, they discovered their pre-booked bus provider had failed to show up, leaving the group without transportation to continue their journey.
When the school group contacted us from the French port, we immediately arranged alternative transportation, deploying two coaches within hours to ensure their journey to Switzerland continued safely.
Received call at 14:00 from school group leader at French port. Confirmed group size (90 students + teachers), current location, and destination requirements for Switzerland.
Located and secured two 50-seater coaches with drivers holding Swiss permits within 30 minutes. Verified vehicle insurance coverage for international student transport.
Arranged port pickup authorization, confirmed Swiss border crossing documentation, and communicated precise arrival time (18:00) to group leaders for student preparation.
Buses arrived at port at 18:00, departed at 18:30 after organized boarding, and delivered the group to Swiss accommodation by 23:00 - maintaining most of the original schedule.
The school group reached their Swiss destination the same evening, only 5 hours behind their original schedule. The educational program continued as planned from the next morning, with no activities missed.
"We could have said 'not our problem' when the school called, but instead we mobilized two buses in 4 hours because 90 kids deserved to reach their destination, not spend the night in a port."— Eugene Bulan, CEO
