Transportation Options for LFNW social events

General Questions
1

Hi all,

I am really excited to join the event.

Can someone please tell about the public transport options as I am living near Airport Hotel and I do not drive.

How can I attend today’s and tomorrow’s social events? (if public transportation is not an option at late hours, maybe like an Uber or similar alternative)?

Will appreciate some info on this.

Thanks in advance

I don’t have a car and do most of my local traveling via WTA. Bus support is poor at night. Most routes shut down around 6/7 PM or go to just one or two pickups per hour.

I am guessing Uber or taxiis best. I use Yellow Cab (360-734-8294). Since I am a fest organizer, I gave up and rented a car for the Fest 8-(

Hi John,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I checked Uber but it seems that they do not pick n drop near Airport. The other alternative I found is Lyft. Is it someone more frequent than Uber in Bellingham?

Uber does not pickup at the airport because the port charges them an extra fee. Lyft or taxi only at the airport. Uber does pickup everywhere else in Bellingham. Just not the airport.
