KLTS’s new 56-passenger bus San Diego, Calif. — The KLTS Limousine & LJ Transportation teams have announced that they have added a 56-passenger Setra to their growing fleet of 50+ vehicles. President Mike Muhsin says this is the latest in the company’s long term plan of becoming San Diego’s top operator.
“Breaking in to the motorcoach side of the business is risky, when we have been heavily focused on sedan, SUV and van work for years,” explains Muhsin. “It’s a risk I see the benefit in taking as I can say we are the largest operator in town offering a motorcoach in-house.”
KLTS hopes to capture large meetings and events in the San Diego region utilizing the full-range fleet through in-house accounts and affiliate work.
