Airport Transportation

You will fly into Raleigh-Durham airport (RDU). Airport Transportation should be made in advance, there is no regularly scheduled shuttle and taxis are expensive. There's plenty of parking on campus during the weekend, so if you want to rent a car, that's fine.

Try R&G Shuttle: 919.840.0262, they also have phones at terminals A and C: C is for American/Midway, A is for other airlines except Continental. Cost is $17.00 one way, $34.00 round trip. Without reservations you'll wait 20 minutes (they say) for a car to show up.

Brad's is now Deprecated

Also Brad's Shuttle at 1.800.467.3302, local 919.493.4890.

If I receive advance notice of flight times, I'm willing to book a shuttle if several people can be accomodated, in that case Duke will pick up the tab, but that assumes several people come in at roughly the same time.

Location

The Computer Science Department is located in the D-wing of the LSRC building. Information on travel to Duke and the LSRC provides some information on travel to our department.
