Carnegie Mellon University Break Bus

We’re pleased to offer student only buses to and from Pittsburgh for Pitt’s Fall, Winter, Thanksgiving and Spring Break. Students from Pitt, Duquesne, and CMU and any other local school are welcome to ride our buses.

Please Note: We will follow Pitt’s break schedule only. You are welcome to book with us if your travel dates match up with Pitt’s schedule. (We have tried dedicated buses to/from CMU in the past and we didn’t get enough riders to continue providing CMU dedicated buses).

All bookings will be for travel to/from Pittsburgh’s Sennott Street and hometown locations.

With convenient pickup and drop-offs, live bus tracking, and a company who actually owns and operates buses, when you travel with us, you’re getting the best service available.
