You should arrive in Phoenix on Wednesday, October 15 if you plan to
attend any pre-conference sessions on Thursday. Otherwise, plan to

Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport offers a variety of
transportation options. All
rental cars and rental car counters are located at the easily
accessible Rental Car Center. You can take a
taxi or limousine or a
van or bus from the airport to the hotel.
The
Southwest Fox Transportation page on the FoxWiki can help you
coordinate transportation so you can find someone to share a cab or limo
with.

it only runs until 7:00 p.m.). They have a set of vans, town cars, and
