Dear Future Director or Director,
We have heard that many of you are concerned about high airfares to Cincinnati for Leadership Summit in January. When Cincinnati was chosen for Leadership Summit 2008, the airfares were more reasonable than they have recently become. Because of this, we've researched our options and found four other airports within 80 miles of Cincinnati where you can book less expensive airfares. These airports are served by major airlines, and have the most convenient and economical rates. A list of these airlines at each airport appears at the end of this e-mail.
In order to make these airports more accessible for you, we are offering FREE bus service from these airports to Leadership hotels. The five airports and approximate travel times to Cincinnati are:
- Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport, KY, 1/2 hour
- Dayton International Airport, Dayton, OH, 1 1/2 hours
- Blue Grass Airport, Lexington, KY, 2 hours
- Louisville International Airport, Louisville, KY, 2 hours
- Port Columbus International Airport, Columbus, OH, 2 1/2 hours
To help you finalize your travel plans, please refer to the tentative shuttle
schedule below. Final shuttle schedules will be posted on Consultant's Corner > Consultant and Leadership Training > Conferences > Leadership Summit at the end of December after registration closes. Look for more information in a future Weekly Bites.
