22nd Annual ASDAL Conference
ARGENTINA
"Shaping Adventist Librarianship in the 21st Century"
Wednesday, June 26 - Sunday, June 30, 2002
FROM THE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT TO NOGARÓ HOTEL
Plan to arrive in Buenos Aires on Tuesday, June 25. Attendees who have notified the onsite coordinator of their arrival will be greeted at the Ezeiza International Airport by an English-speaking representative of the Local Arrangements Committee. The representative, who will be carrying an ASDAL sign, will help arrange for transportation from the airport to downtown Buenos Aires and give advice on how to deal with money exchange.
Conference attendees arriving on other days are on their own and must for safety reasons arrange both the transportation and price in advance with a shuttle bus or taxi company at their airport booth. Get tourist information in English at the Secretaria de Turismo (Secretary of Tourism) booth. Do NOT arrange with individuals offering transportation on their own. There are several transportation options from Ezeiza International Airport to downtown Buenos Aires.
- Shuttle bus
- Ecuador Turismo costs $11-$15
- Manuel Tienda León Company costs $15. It operates every 30 minutes. The bus terminal is at Avenida Santa Fe 790.
- San Martin Bus operates every hour and charges about $11.
- Taxi:
- $30-$35.
