If you plan to stay in Boston, or other parts, be sure to give yourself extra travel time. Given the ease of public transportation we strongly encourage its use.

Please Note: There are many events taking place in Boston at this time.

Keep in mind the following comments:

  • Book your flight for departing the conference well before the conference (especially if you plan on staying over the weekend).
  • Be sure to book your hotel early to get the hotel you want for that weekend.
  • Similarly, take this into consideration when making dining or entertainment reservations that weekend.

IMPORTANT: If in town for 1 day or more: Buy 1 ($9) or 7-Day ($15) "Day LinkPass" is ideal for Boston visitors; it's valid for unlimited use during your stay for Subway, Local Bus, Commuter Rail Zone 1A and Inner Harbor Ferry travel. Otherwise you will be paying $2.00 per trip - which can become very expensive. You WILL be using the train frequently.
