Air and Ground Transportation

There are two main options for traveling to Vail:

Denver International Airport (DEN) is your best bet for flying to Colorado. It is, by land size, the largest international airport in the United States and the fifth busiest. Keep this in mind while traveling and make sure to be early when checking in. DEN is approximately 2.5 hours from Vail.

Eagle County Airport (EGE) is a small regional airport that offers flights to and from a handful of cities across the U.S. EGE is approximately 35 minutes away from Vail.

Transportation to and from the airport is not included as part of the conference fee. There are a number of convenient and economical public transportation options including buses, taxis, shuttles and limousines. More information on possible ride shares among conference attendees will be available as the conference gets closer.

Another option is renting a car. We are pleased to offer our conference participants guaranteed car rental rates with Hertz. Click below to make a reservation. Please note that the Vail Marriott charges $23/day for parking.
