Transportation from the Airport (PDX) to the Hotel

Portland International Airport (PDX) is nine miles from downtown Portland (approx. 8 miles to the Doubletree hotel) – 25 minutes by car or 28 minutes by MAX light rail.

It is not necessary to take a taxi from the airport to the hotel. Portland’s award‐winning MAX light rail runs regularly from 5:00 AM to 1:00 AM. Board at the south end of the baggage area. Sleek, European‐style streetcars also connect downtown with popular shopping and dining districts. Cost is $2.50. Plan your trip using Tri Met’s Ride Planner.

See the transportation page on the SusTech website with more info and an interactive map. Also see the Things-to-to-page.

Once here, Sustech attendees will find convenient transportation in and around the city.

You can take the MAX light rail (Red, Greeen and Blue lines) downtown for $2.50 (2-hour ticket) fare.
You can purchase a day pass for $5.
The pass is good for the streetcars and bus as well. See http://trimet.org/index.htm
