Once we confirm our tournament accommodations options, we'll post information here about how to get from your hotels to the fields and back again. For those without access to their own transportation, shuttles will be provided from the hotels to the fields every day. If you're in the mood to do a little exploring, Calgary has an expansive public transit system supported by numerous bus routes and a Light Rail Transit (LRT) line.
Arriving On A Jet Plane?
For those flying into Calgary on Wednesday, look for CUC2008 ambassadors at the airport who'll be on-hand to welcome you answer any questions you have. You're #1 question will probably be "How do I get to my hotel?". Here are a few options to think about ahead of time:
- In a group? Take the Airport Shuttle Express. Call 403-509-1570 to book in advance. They don't do singles or walk-ups.
- Taxi or Limousine: Taxis can be expensive but if you double or triple-up you'll cut the cost and still get there relatively quickly. Taxis are available 24/7 at the arrivals level. Limousines are usually around as well, but may require a phone call from the airport.
- Transit: Calgary Transit is pretty mediocre from the airport, but they do have a handy trip planner, and it only costs $2.50 per adult or $1.50 for under-18s. Visit the Calgary Transit Online Trip Planner.
On-Site Shuttle Buses
Each morning, buses will be leaving from Glenmore Inn, Blackfoot Inn, and Mount Royal College Dorms and heading directly to the fields. Starting from 06:30, buses will be staggered in the morning, then will be running in a wide-area loop to each of the hotels and field venues. To ensure you are able to get to the fields with enough warm-up time, please try to catch your bus as early as possible. Note: At the end of the day last buses will leave when full, but cannot return for those who did not fit on the bus. Please plan accordingly.
