Bumblebee lifepods, are designed to ferry up to nine people at a time. They have one pilot seat as well as eight side-facing crash seats. The seats have harnesses to keep people from injury when crash-landing. The effectiveness of the safety features on the Bumblebee vary greatly, as can their reliability.

Some of the Bumblebees featured in [[Halo]] landed without any injuries, while a lot had catastrophic failures resulting in the deaths of all aboard. Most of the lifeboats seen had several [[Marines]] who apparently did not survive the descent on Installation 04. | ||
Bumblebees, have little in the way of maneuverability. They feature thrusters and air-brakes to slow down during descent, but they can not reach escape velocity and leave a planet's atmosphere on their own. Also, normally after a landing, the pod can never be used again, as the pods will probably suffer a great amount of damage, including the air brakes breaking off in the impact, rendering it useless. | Bumblebees, have little in the way of maneuverability.
