TRAVEL INFORMATION
The Calgary International Airport is well served by many international
Airlines with non-stop service from Europe and, via Vancouver, from Pacific
Rim countries. Recent `Open-Skies' agreements between Canada and the
United States of America have resulted in extensive increases in airline
services into Calgary from cities in the United States.
Participants can consider car rental at the Calgary International Airport
and possibly visit other sites in the Rocky Mountains and around Calgary
pre- and/or post-conference.
Brewster operates a twice daily bus service between the Calgary
International Airport and Lake Louise. The trip takes approximately two
hours.
Airport Departures 2.30 h and 18.00 h.
Lake Louise Departures 7.25 h and 11.25 h
The Fare is $36 Cdn, one way including taxes. Additionally, the Committee
will pursue bus rental at lower costs if feasible logistically (dependent
upon the arrival schedules of participants).
