Hotel and Travel Information

Hotels:

We have negotiated special conference rates for blocks of rooms at two area hotels, which are located close to campus. Please make sure to make your reservation early before these rates expire (see specific dates for each hotel). Hotel rooms will be scarce because our conference coincides with the Keeneland fall race meet (information is here: https://www.keeneland.com/calendar/2015-fall-race-meeting) and the United States Mounted Games Association Fall Championship Final at the Kentucky Horse Park (more information here: http://www.kyhorsepark.com/events/usmga-fall-finale-us-championship-fin…).

Airports:

Lexington Bluegrass Airport (LEX) is the most convenient travel location, but Cincinnati (CVG) and Louisville (SDF) are only 80 miles drive away. Southwest Airlines serves Louisville, which may be a cheaper flight option for some. You will likely need to rent a car from these locations to Lexington.

Local Transportation:

Lextran runs buses to and from the airport. Routes and maps are available here:

A number of cab companies are operating between downtown and the airport.

Bluegrass Cab: (859) 223-8888

Lexington Taxi Cab: (859) 242-5230

Yellow Cab Lexington: (859) 231-8294

Uber also operates in Lexington, KY.
