Airport ‘Turkey Shuttle’ offered

Got your flight back home for the Thanksgiving holidays booked but still trying to figure out how you’ll get to the airport and back? Or how to avoid a hefty airport parking fee?

The Danforth Campus’ Parking & Transportation Services, in cooperation with Residential Life, will offer transportation to and from the Danforth Campus and Lambert-St. Louis International Airport Nov. 20, 21 and 25 to all students, faculty and staff traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Tickets for a spot on one of the 36-passenger buses are $15 (round-trip only) and should be purchased in advance. No cash will be accepted at the point of service.

Customers are asked to purchase tickets for a particular time slot to ensure buses are not overbooked.

Students can purchase tickets though student billing (cash will not be accepted) at the Residential Life Office or the Village Office. Faculty and staff may purchase tickets for themselves and their families (cash only) at Parking & Transportation Services, located on North Campus.

Passengers must present both a ticket and valid WUSTL I.D. to board the bus. Families of WUSTL faculty and staff must travel with the faculty or staff member.

Bus service will operate on the following schedule:

• Tuesday, Nov. 20, various times from noon-6 p.m.;

• Wednesday, Nov. 21, 8:30 a.m. & 10 a.m.;

• Sunday, Nov. 25, various times from 11 a.m.-9:30 p.m.

A full schedule is available at parking.wustl.edu or at the Residential Life and Village Offices and Parking & Transportation Services.

Buses will depart at the area across from the clock tower on Shepley Drive in the South 40.

Students, faculty and staff members with WUSTL parking permits will be allowed to park in Wohl and Lien Garages during the holiday Nov. 20-25.

Those without parking permits wishing to park in the Wohl or Lien Garages must visit the Parking & Transportation Office to obtain a free temporary permit.
