NEW!
Alaska Airlines is offering a 5% discount
on trips to and from Anchorage from May 14 - 25.
The discount code is ECMA219.
Unfortunately, this offer is not retroactive,
so there will be no rebates for tickets
already purchased.
Booking instructions
Participants will most likely arrive at Ted Stevens International Airport (ANC) in Anchorage. The simplest way to get to the Alyeska Prince Resort in Girdwood is to rent a car. A car will be useful both during GWADW 2015, and before and afterwards, during sightseeing.
For those who do not wish to drive, there are many taxi and shuttle services. The rates are ~ $100 - $125 for 1 - 4 passengers. If one can assemble a group, then the fare is reasonable.
A company called Shuttleman provides the following GWADW rates, which seem particularly suitable for 1 - 4 people. To access them, reserve and pay, use their website, http://www.shuttleman.net, go to the Quick Quote section, and under the drop down menu for "Service", click on the tab for "GWADW Conference Service May 15 - 24".
