For the conference sessions, parking lot P1 is best. Ottawa is within an hour's drive of New York State. Flying into Ottawa is straightforward, especially if you fly on Air Canada, Canadian Airlines, or any one of these airlines' many international partners. If you are flying from outside North America on a budget, you may wish to consider a charter flight into Montreal, which is a two hour journey from Ottawa by bus or train. A taxi is the quickest and easiest way to travel in from the airport.
Shuttle buses to the downtown hotels are also available.
If you are staying downtown, or if you are planning to stay a day or so after the conference, you may find that renting a car is cheaper than taking taxis. The major North American car rental agencies all have offices in Ottawa. The Carleton University residences are the most convenient and economical accommodation option. The number of places available in residence is limited, however. Please register as soon as possible to guarantee yourself a residence space.
