Get around Athens

From the Airport

The closest airport is John Glenn International Airport located in Columbus, Ohio (CMH) which is 80 miles away from Ohio University. In addition to rental cars, conference attendees have the option to buy a ticket on the Go Bus to get from the Columbus airport to Athens Ohio. If you decide to take the Go Bus, please let us know so we can arrange to pick you up from the dropoff location.

Public Transit

Athens Public Transit is available in Athens, OH. See details on their website or call at (740) 592-2727. There will be shuttle service between each of the conference hotels and the conference location on Saturday and Sunday. Attendees can also contact us to make arrangements to be picked up before the Friday evening event if needed.

Hotels

You will want to be sure to book your hotel rooms early because there is another conference in town this weekend (Global Fusion Conference).
