How are you getting from the airport to the casino? I have heard a few different things about the distance the casino is from the airport so it seems a cab will be expensive.

Thanks
Bora

Yeah, I called the casino and they don't have their own shuttle to or from the airport.

The $40-$50 cab ride might be a bad surprise for some folks.

Tried calling Miller Transportation 7:10pm local time (from the Horseshoe Website) and got a voicemail.

I'm driving and I wouldn't mind picking up or dropping someone off if I'm not waiting for a match, but man, we gotta figure something out here.
 
More bad news. UGH! Greg needs to hire a van to shuttle people back and forth. It could run all day, making round trips. It's actually not that expensive to rent a van by the week. I've done it for one of the L.A. Expos when everyone stayed a couple of miles away.

I'm going to get my tickets soon so I think everyone should post the day and time they get in so maybe people can share the cab ride.

Fantastic idea!

I have cab shared many times to events such as Valley Forge (from the Philly Airport) where the cab is $50-60$ one way.
 
I remember reading about an announcement going to be made regarding the transportation between the airport, and the event, on the DCC website.

I think something is on the way......(I hope so)

Otherwise we both (Tom Neal) arrive at 3:50 on Sat. 24th.

Paul...

Did you forget following dates from the airport?? Surely the van will run on dates other than the 22nd....won't it? From the airport to Horseshoe..

I'm assuming it's Jan. 22- 31st...everyday. 1....4....7....and 11:00 pm
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Jay....looks like we are going to have to haul ass to make it....with you arriving at 4:00 (departure time for van from airport) and me arriving at 3:50.

Otherwise, we'll have a 3 hr wait.

I sure hope Jon is a little flexible!!!! If so, he could have a very good week.


THANKS
 
I am getting in on friday the 23rd around 11-12pm at the indy airport. If anyone wants to hitch a ride from there I may have some room. Chris.
 
First you plane needs to land safely not like the fiasco in DENVER this past weekend. That is why I do not fly.
 
The primary purpose of the van is to provide a shuttle between the Holiday Inn and the Horseshoe.Pickups at the airport may be possible but are also
based on demand between Horseshoe and Holiday INN. A cell phone will be turned on at 7:00am on January 22nd to request service and discuss schedules. The number is (812)207-8339. The driver's name is Jon.

Please be understanding and courteous. DIAMOND is trying to accommodate EVERYONE"!
 
If a guy was real creative he could rent a Car, and do the shuttle thing for 20 BUCKS a head when he was not playing.

Yeah..and IF you have an accident and someone gets hurt....you'll be sued, then arrested.

After all, CARS are more dangerous then airplanes.
