Transportation from the Airport to UAF
Taxi fare from the airport to the UAF campus is approximately $20 USD. The 2016 Institute Organizers will inform you if you arrive at the same time as other participants so that you may share a ride.
You should instruct the taxi to take you to the MBS (Moore-Bartlett-Skarland) Complex on UAF campus: 732 Yukon Drive. Check-in is in the MBS Lobby.
If your flight arrives in the middle of the day, limited city bus service (MACS) may be available (look for the Yellow Line). Please note, you must have the exact fare ($1.50 USD); no change will be given.
