Easterwood Airport is part of Texas A&M University. It is a 10-15 minute drive from the Physics Department, the Bush Library, and the relevant hotels in College Station. We will have a van for transporting participants between Easterwood and their hotels, beginning late Saturday.
There is regular service to Easterwood from Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston, via American Eagle and Continental. The flight time is about 1 hour from DFW and 1/2 hour from Houston International.
Please inform us of your arrival and departure times, so that we can schedule the van service appropriately.
The Houston and Austin airports are respectively 85 and 95 miles from College Station. Participants arriving at these airports will need to complete the trip by rental car.
From Houston International, follow I-45 north to Conroe; then take a left onto 105 and follow it west to Navasota; finally, turn right onto 6 and follow it north to College Station.
From Austin, take I-35 north for about 2 miles to 290; then follow 290 east until you reach 21; take 21 northeast; finally, follow the signs to College Station via any of several roads.
Some of the hotels are on Highway 6, also known as Texas Avenue. Others are on University Drive, which intersects Texas Avenue at the edge of the university. The Memorial Student Center is on the university campus.
Note: Parking is restricted at the Bush Library. Participants will be carried by van from hotels, but please let us know if you require a parking permit for the conference.
