50 Years of Moving Florida Forward
What started with one motorcoach and a vision has grown into one of Florida’s most established family-owned motorcoach companies.
Annett Bus Lines was founded in 1976 by Eric and Norma Jean Annett with a single motorcoach that traveled an impressive 65,000 miles during its first year. Fifty years later, Annett Bus Lines has grown into a trusted provider of charter bus and motorcoach transportation throughout Florida and the Southeast United States, serving schools, universities, sports teams, churches, businesses, tour groups, and organizations of all sizes.
From One Motorcoach to a Statewide Florida Fleet
Annett Bus Lines began operating during a transformational time in the motorcoach industry. Founded just before industry deregulation in the late 1970s, Annett was among Florida’s early privately owned bus companies. During the early 1980s, the company expanded its operations to include scheduled line-haul service under the Trailways flag.
While our fleet, facilities, technology, and service area have grown tremendously since those early years, one thing has remained the same: Annett Bus Lines is still family owned and operated.
In 2002, Annett Bus Lines successfully transitioned to its second generation of family ownership. Today, brothers Brian and David Annett own and operate the company, continuing the legacy established by their parents while leading Annett into the future of motorcoach transportation.
