Weather

of 85o to a low of 57o. Visit www.weather.com closer to IOL for more detailed
weather reports. You may want to bring a sweater to IOL, as the meeting
rooms are sometimes cool from the air conditioning.

It is always suggested that you walk in pairs when traveling around the
city.
Ground Transportation
Airport Shuttle Service From Sky Harbor Airport to Hotel
When you get off of your plane, follow the signs to “Ground Transportation”
and “Baggage Claim.” After getting your luggage, look for
the courtesy phone boards, which are located in each baggage claim area.
The phone boards list various hotels with a number to call for transportation.
The number listed for the ONS hotels (Hyatt Regency Phoenix Hotel, Wyndham
Phoenix Hotel, Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites, and SpringHill Suites)
is 25. An Arrive! operator will ask for your name and give you directions
to the ‘blue diamond’ pick up area located outside each terminal.
Within minutes, your vehicle with the Arrive! front license plate will
pull up and the driver will ask for you by name.
Tickets are $8 one way (click here for coupon). Sky Harbor Airport is
located four miles from Phoenix Civic Plaza Convention Center and the
ONS hotels.
