Important
transportation information |
|
for
those flying to the reunion! |
Millville, NJ is located approx. 45 miles
from Phila. PA, Atlantic City, NJ and
Wilmington, DE commercial airports. There are
no known scheduled public or other shuttle
services to/from Millville. This means that
transportation to/from Millville will have to
be found by individuals. The Inn doesn't
have courtesy transportation to/from these
airports.
Taxi and/or Limo service is always
available at airports, however, it may be a
bit expensive to/from Millville. Discussions
were had with the AirField Museum, the Inn and
Enterprise Rental Agency personnel of
Millville to find economical transportation
options.
At this point in time, it appears that the
most economical way to/from Millville would be
to share the cost of a car rental or taxi from
the airport with someone else. If any one
finds a less expensive way, please notify Bill
Geise or Bob Colangelo so that we can pass it
on.
Certainly, since not being travel experts,
it is recommended that flying travelers check
with their travel agency for transportation
options to/from Millville! |
