Airport Information
Green Airport is 15 minutes from Hilton Hotel. www.pvdairport.com
For those
of you who are flying into Green Airport
in Providence, you could either take a
taxi to hotel or take the airport
shuttle for $12. Since the Hilton is
new, the Transportation Board has not
yet "approved" their application for the
shuttle to stop at the Hilton, so if you
do take the shuttle, you want to get off
at the Westin Hotel which is located
less than 1/2 mile from the Hilton. It
is very close to walk and it is a good
opportunity to see a little bit of
Providence.
Once you are at the Westin:
1. Go across the street towards the
Rhode Island Convention Center.
2. Go around the corner into Sabin
Street. Please note the RICC will be on
your right side.
3. Keep walking straight on Sabin
Street. Please note after passing the
RICC, you will be walking by the Dunkin
Donuts Center which is going through
renovations.
4. After the DD Center, you will see the
Hilton Providence. The walk will take
you less than five minutes.
If you prefer not to walk, you can call
the Hilton at 401-831-3900, identify
yourself as a member of American Glass
Guild and ask if the Hilton shuttle is
available. If so, the Hilton shuttle
will drive to the Westin to
pick you up. The Hilton shuttle is based
on availability, but it's
worth a try.
