MLA will offer a free shuttle between the Hotel Orrington and the annual meeting at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Chicago. The schedule is now available on the MLA ‘08 website.

The MLA shuttle will operate between the two hotels from Saturday morning through Wednesday morning. For members attending Friday CE courses, MLA will help to coordinate shared taxi rides. Members can also take the CTA Purple Line train (see our post with directions).

MLA advises members to allow for a minimum of 45 minutes ride time during peak traffic hours. While traffic is not likely to be as much of an issue on Saturday and Sunday, during morning rush hour (Monday to Wednesday) roads will be more congested. Be prepared, and take advantage of the time to network with colleagues and enjoy the views of Chicago and Lake Michigan.
