 +===== Travel Information ===== 
 +==== Air ==== 
 +The closest airport to Boulder is [[http://flydenver.com|Denver International Airport (DEN)]], which is approximately 45 miles from Boulder. 
 + 
 +If you do not live near a hub airport, your best option for getting a non-stop flight to Denver is on [[http://www.united.com/|United]], [[http://www.frontierairlines.com/|Frontier]], or [[http://southwest.com/|Southwest airlines]]. 
 + 
 +==== Ground Transportation ==== 
 +There are [[http://www.flydenver.com/parking_transit|several options]] to get to Boulder from the airport: 
 + 
 +  * [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/|RTD Bus service]], [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/skyride.shtml|Skyride]] [[http://www3.rtd-denver.com//schedules/getSchedule.action?routeType=9&routeId=AB|AB Bus]] is $9 (cash only) each way. There is a train from the airport called //University of Colorado A Line//, but it does <fc #FF0000>NOT</fcgo to Boulder. It only goes to downtown Denver. Do not take it if you want to go directly to Boulder. 
 +  * [[http://greenrideboulder.com/|Green Ride Boulder]] is $32 each way to the hotel. 
 +  * [[http://www.supershuttle.com/Locations/BoulderDEN|Boulder Super Shuttle]] go to the ticket counter in DIA between 7am and 9:30pm. 
 +  * [[http://www.yellowtrans.com/|Taxis]] cost roughly $90 for a one way trip.

The tollroad is quicker and has less traffic than I-70.  Most rental car companies have toll passes in their rental cars so toll charges will be paid through the rental agencies.
