Some by land, some by sea and some by air... Getting to the ILA's 33rd Annual Convention at the Kitsap Conference Center at Bremerton Harborside.
We will be waiting to welcome you to the Great Pacific Northwest so here's how we're planning to help you get there.
By Land:
For those of you living in the Northwest part of the US, you can drive
to Seattle and take the ferry (car and passenger) across to the
Bremerton peninsula, or you can drive directly there from Tacoma via
Washington Route 16W and Washington Route 3N. If you are a train
traveler, the Amtrak station ((King Street Station) is the closest to
the ferry dock.
By Sea: For
those who want an extended vacation, you can cruise up to Seattle
Harbor and then ferry across to Bremerton. For those with your own
yacht, power or sail, you can dock at the Bremerton Harbor (just plan
on taking some of us out for a day trip over the weekend!).
By Air:
Most of us will be flying into the Seattle area. Flights to
Seattle-Tacoma Airport (SEA) are frequent as it's both a business and
recreation area. Check the airfare widget below to get an idea of
current airfares from around the world to Seattle.
Shuttle/Taxi/Light Rail Service:
But the airport is not your final destination, so we've tried to make
it as easy for you to get from the airport to the Conference Center as
we could. Since we did not get most people's iteneraries, we have made
arrangements with a Shuttle Service to provide a discounted fare to all
attendees.

Email me with any questions.
Light Rail
There is a light rail line that runs from the airport into downtown
Seattle. The Pioneer Square station is roughly a five block walk from
the ferry dock. The cost of the light rail service is $2.75.
The Ferry from Seattle to Bremerton Harborside:
One of the highlights
of this venue is the hour-long ferry ride from Seattle Harbor to
Bremerton Harborside. It is a beautiful and relaxing cruise. The cost of
the ferry is a very reasonable $7.50 Round Trip. For those who have
reached senior status, over 65, you can purchase a round-trip ticket
for $3.75.

and we'll get back to you as quickly as possible.
