TRANSPORTATION

Anchorage can be easily reached by plane from all over the world. Frequent connections are available from Portland and Seattle.
From the airport to downtown Anchorage and the Hilton Anchorage Hotel, you can use the shuttle busses, taxis, rental cars. Information are available here.

If you are planning to attend VIMS'02 be prepared to be awed by the natural beauty of Alaska's mountains, waterways and natural habitats. And probably the best way to travel from Anchorage to the VIMS site at the Aleyska Resort is by bus - chartered by the symposium from downtown Anchorage.

Plan to arrive in Anchorage no later than the morning of Saturday 18 May 2002 or, even better, by the evening of Friday 17 May 2002 and stay at the Anchorage Hilton Hotel - at the conference rate for IMTC the following week.
Rooms are available now but make your reservations soon to assure accommodations (see below).

The chartered bus service will depart the Hilton on Saturday - we'll advise later the exact time - and follow nature's trail to the Alyeska Resort within sight of Turnagain Sound. The symposium will run through Monday afternoon and the return bus to Anchorage will depart immediately after the final session - in time to get you back to Anchorage for the evening and to prepare for IMTC.
Bus tickets can be purchased through the VIMS registration form.





HOTEL IN ANCHORAGE

For your stay before leaving to the Symposium site and before your departure from Anchorage, we recommend to stay at the Hilton Anchorage.

Hit the "Book" button and enter your reservation information: select the rate code IMT - Instrumentation and Measurement Technology - to have the discounted rate as for IMTC2002.
