Travel Information
Getting to Columbus
- CMH - Port Columbus Airport. Find special deals on Kayak or elsewhere. Bing offers a Price Predictor, which attempts to let you know if airline fares are on the rise or dropping. Order far enough in advance (but not too far!) and you should be able to find tickets for under $300 from most places in the US.
- Megabus - Megabus is a low cost coach bus service. Buses have free wi-fi and power outlets. Tickets cost as little as $1 if you buy far enough in advance! Megabus has new routes spanning much of the midwest and northeast. Megabus conveniently offers a stop on OSU's campus.

- Online Reservations: Go to the reservation wizard and reserve rooms using "CUBE" as your promotional code. There have been issues using the website in Chrome. Firefox and IE seem to work fine, however.
- Phone Reservations: Rooms may be reserved by calling the phone number and asking for the "World Cube Association" block, or asking for it by the group code "CUBE".
- From the airport, you may opt to share a Taxi or Supershuttle. This is more expensive, but a shorter ride (15 minutes). Expect a $30 cab fare each way. Columbus's bus system, the COTA, will also get you from the airport to the hotel. This is much cheaper, but may involve a transfer or two, and will cost 1-1.5 hours of your time.
- There is a chance we will provide a Charter bus from the airport to OSU. Don't count on this.
You can find directions to the venue on the venue page.
