I took the bus back to the airport in Austin (the Airport Flyer). Was a good experience. If Austin is the city I’m thinking of, I took SuperShuttle to the hotel (I believe because I arrived late at night) and was the fourth hotel that got dropped off, which roughly doubled the trip time. There is that risk with the shared-ride shuttles.
In recent years, the only location without a solid public transit option was New Orleans (I used it anyway). They have an express airport bus, but the hours and frequency are not ideal (there’s a local bus as well, which is quite a bit slower). SLC had good light rail service, Denver has good rail service from the airport to downtown, and Atlanta has good subway service (all of these I’ve used before). Typically the transit option is less than $10 round-trip (Denver’s is above-average at $9 each way), sometimes even less than $5. > On Nov 2, 2018, at 5:37 AM, Chris Schlipalius > <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi all, so I’ve used Super Shuttle booked online for both New Orleans SC > round trip and Austin SC just to the hotel, travelling solo and a Sheraton > hotel shuttle back to the airport (as a solo travel option, Super is a good > price). > In Austin for SC my boss actually took the bus to his hotel! > > For SC18 my colleagues and I will prob pre-book a van transfer as there’s a > few of us. > Some of the Aussie IBM staff are hiring a car to get to their hotel, so if > theres a few who can share, that’s also a good share option if you can park > or drop the rental car at or near your hotel. > > Regards, Chris > >> On 2 Nov 2018, at 4:02 pm, [email protected] wrote: >> >> Re: Slightly OT: Getting from DFW to SC17 hotels in Dallas > > _______________________________________________ > gpfsug-discuss mailing list > gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org > http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss _______________________________________________ gpfsug-discuss mailing list gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss
