TRAVEL & ACCOMMODATIONS

TRAVEL SUGGESTIONS: Delta, Southwest and Northwest are the airlines with the most frequent flights into Salt Lake City International Airport.

ARRIVING: If you are attending the Friday night performance and party, plan to arrive no later than 5 pm to allow plenty of time to check into your hotel and get to the downtown City Library.

DEPARTING: We have scheduled the conference to end early enough (4:30 pm) that those who want to leave on Sunday evening can still catch flights. You should have no trouble making any flight at 6:30 pm or thereafter.

GROUND TRANSPORTATION: Renting a car is not necessary or recommended for this conference. We suggest using the Express Airport Shuttle (1-800-397-0773 or 1- 801-596-1600) which charges $12 each way between the airport and the University campus. (They suggest that you call 24 hours in advance to make reservations, for the best service.) The TRAX light rail system travels frequently and conveniently between Fort Douglas and The City Library, as well all other downtown attractions.

ACCOMMODATIONS: We encourage you to stay on-site in either of two new, beautiful, convenient and reasonable choices.  Blocks of rooms for our conference are being held through April 13, 2005; after that, all reservations are subject to availability (another compelling reason to register early!).
