About Us

Since 1985 Frontier Bus Lines has been building a bus transportation business in Red Deer to serve the needs of fellow Central Albertans. Keith and Laura Budd have become very well known as providers of first class motor coaches hauling everything from hockey teams, school classes, visitors to Canada, and seniors on tours and adventures.

Prior to developing Frontier, Keith was a commercial long-haul driver while Laura worked in a bank. Keith now manages a team of professional drivers, oversees all maintenance on the motor coaches (a total of 12) is kept current and meets or exceeds safety standards, and drives when needed. Laura looks after the administrative duties and arranges specialized tour bookings and arrangements. The business operates from their acreage between Red Deer and Sylvan Lake.

Those groups and organizations needing transportation from small to large numbers can simply call up Frontier to discuss their needs. You will be provided a quote based on size of bus needed, distance to travel and time needed to complete the trip. "Chartering a bus from Frontier is quite simple and economical,” says Laura. "We really encourage folks to plan as far in advance as possible to confirm availability of a motor coach and driver.”

Many people living in Central Alberta look forward to various specialty trips that Frontier organizes....such as the Christmas lights/dinner tours, Rosebud Dinner Theatre, Mystery Tours, Canadian Finals Rodeo, Casino Trips, etc. We'll arrange tours even into the states or up to the far north. On this web site folks can come back and check for the most current updates and plan their next venture with Frontier Bus Lines. All planned tours include having a host or hostess aboard to add to the entertainment value.

Laura usually is the one passengers meet. Frontier Bus Lines often gets calls from tour operators who are planning tours into the Canadian Rockies and beyond. We offer competitive rates and offer the finest motor coaches for travel/viewing enjoyment. We’ve had guests from Japan, England, France, Germany, Columbia, the USA and a host of many other countries. Some of the tour operators who have hired us for their transportation needs are actually Canadian who specialize in offering “new Canadians” an opportunity to see and enjoy some of the venues Western Canada has to offer. It’s always a joy to show off our great land!

Customers of Frontier can rest assured in receiving the highest quality of equipment, service, drivers and total satisfaction.
