Local Transportation Information

From the Minneapolis/St. Paul Airport to Hotels:

Ground transportation information provided by the MSP airport:
http://www.mspairport.com/msp/Ground_Transportation/default.aspx

Shuttle service, SuperShuttle, is available on the ground transportation level of the airport, running every half hour from 6:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The cost of a one-way trip from/to the airport by shuttle is usually around $16. It is also possible to purchase a round-trip fare upon arrival.
*Reservations for the return trip to the airport must be made 24 hours in advance of travel by calling 1-800-BLUE-VAN.*

Taxi service is also available to and from the airport. Travel time from the airport to the hotels by taxi is 20-25 minutes and the average cost is $30-$40.

Light rail is available to and from both terminals through Metro Transit. It may be simpler to travel by taxi or shuttle when arriving, as each hotel is about a mile from the nearest light rail stations.

Car rental is not necessary or even very practical for workshop participants staying at hotels near campus. Parking is limited and can be expensive, and buses and shuttles are readily available.

Hotels to Workshop:

Shuttle service will be provided from each hotel to and from the workshop site. Those staying at the Holiday Inn may also choose to walk (approx. 3/4 mile/1km).
