2010 Conference Transportation

Victoria is on the southern tip of Vancouver Island [map]. If you are flying in, the simplest and recommended route is to fly to the Victoria Airport (YYJ) and take a 20 minute taxi ride into town to your hotel.

If you like making travel adventurous (i.e. cheaper), you may also consider flying to Vancouver International Airport (YVR) and taking a bus to the Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay Ferry, where you can bus again into town near your hotel options. Alternatively you can fly into SeaTac International Airport (SEA), bus to the Victoria Clipper foot ferry terminal in downtown Seattle and take the clipper into the Victoria Inner Harbor which is close to the Hotel options. The Clipper is offering us a 10% discount (see below for details).

Whichever route you choose, the information below should help you make your plans.
