AIRPORT INFORMATION

Airport transportation information can be found at: http://www.rdu.com/groundtrans/groundtrans.htm

The Triangle Transit Authority (TTA) has shuttle buses from the airport. The trip takes one hour, with a fare of $2.00. http://www.ridetta.org/Bus_Shuttle/Airport_Service/airportService.html has a "trip planner" function that offers full scheduling details. RDU would be the starting point, and the destination (for the Brownstone Hotel) is Hillsborough Street at Cox. Travelers would take Bus #747 from the airport to the TTA hub, and then #105 (runs frequently) from the hub to the hotel area.

A taxi ride would be about 25 minutes and cost $27.50. The hotel is within walking distance of the conference site, but those who would like to explore Raleigh in the evenings may also consider renting a car.
