Getting to Ithaca and
Cornell University Airports Tompkins Regional
Airport
Note: flyers into Ithaca can get a taxi into downtown Ithaca or
Cornell University at a cost of $16 plus a $1 baggage fee. If multiple people are taking the taxi then
it is $16 for the 1st person and $8 for each additional person if
you are going to the same place plus the same baggage fees (This may vary
slightly depending on the cab-driver but I wanted everyone to know what to
approximately expect). There are also
buses that run fairly frequently downtown and to the campus for a cost of
$1.50 one-way (Check the TCAT: Tompkins Consolidated Area Transit
schedule. The airport is approximately 10-15 minutes from downtown
hotels and about the same distance from Cornell University. On the above TCAT website you will want to type in the following
routes in the trip planner section to check schedules: Those staying at the Holiday Inn (Origin: Airport, Destination: Green@Commons) Those staying in on-campus housing (Origin: Airport, Destination:
Stewart@University) Those coming directly to the Workshop (Origin: Airport, Destination:
Corson/Mudd Hall) Syracuse Hancock
International Airport Note: flyers into Syracuse will have an approximately 1 hour ride into
Ithaca so you will either need to rent a car or arrange another mode of
transportation. There is a shuttle bus that runs back and forth
from Ithaca to Syracuse but you will need to make prior arrangements with the
shuttle company.
