2007 ATOS Grand Organ Tour

Transportation

 

Your regular registration includes transportation to all convention events from the Marriott Marquis headquarters hotel.

New this year, we also offer lower cost "NO BUS" registration. The NO BUS option does NOT include transportation between convention hotel and events.  With NO BUS registration, you drive or provide your own transport, at your own expense (intended for “locals” or those familiar with the area, who are not staying at Marriott Marquis hotel)

 

  New York City is serviced by an excellent subway system and frequent rail connections. The nearest subway station is  MTA Times Square, and Amtrak connections are available at nearby Penn Station.

Taxi cabs are a quick and easy means of transportation across Manhattan. With over 12,000 yellow cabs servicing the city, it's usually no problem to find one.

The act of flagging down a cab is called "hailing." There's not much to it, just stick out your arm and pretend you're the Statue of Liberty. When the numbers on the roof of the cab are lit, it is available.
