Please list your arrival day and time on the attendee page and we will try to coordinate volunteers to shuttle people from the airport. The Wyndham offers an airport shuttle for $25 one way or $43 round trip. Alternatively, public transportation costs around $3, is pretty easy and takes about an hour with a short walk to the Wyndham from the final stop: http://www.portauthority.org/PAAC/Schedules/TripPlanner/tabid/164/Default.aspx
