Travel Info
The 8th LCI Conference will be held in the Embassy Suites Hotel. The closest airport is the Reno/Tahoe International Airport in Reno, Nevada. This airport is serviced by all maor airlines, including Southwest and Frontier.

There is an hourly bus service from the airport that goes directly to the Embassy Suites Hotel. The South Tahoe Express is located at the far end of the baggage claim area. Reservations are required. 1.866.898.2463 or through their Web site.

The bus service is the most convenient way to get to the conference hotel. The hotel itself has an Avis rental car location; so attendees who are interested in renting a car to explore the Tahoe area during Wednesday afternoon might wish to use the bus service from the airport and rent a car at the hotel for just the afternoon.
