How to get there

The primary airport for Cincinnati is the Cincinnati / Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG). The airport is actually in Kentucky, not Ohio. It's about a half-hour drive. There are shuttle services available. See the location page on the conference site for details.

If people don't arrive too late on Friday, Shaun can pick them up at the airport.
