Once in Santa Barbara, the best way from the airport to the hotel is by taxi. If you do not fly directly into Santa Barbara, ground transportation is available from LAX to Santa Barbara through the Santa Barbara Airbus, please check their website: www.sbairbus.com for fares and schedules. You will note that fares are cheaper when booked early, and that discounted fares are offered if you are traveling with a companion. Reservations can be made online or by calling their toll-free number, +1 (800) 423-1618. If arriving on the Airbus, you must get off at the Santa Barbara stop (the Hyatt Hotel, 1111 E. Cabrillo Blvd.) and take a taxi to the Upham from there.

Dining

We will be arranging for your lunches and dinners during the meeting days; breakfast is included in the hotel rate and is available in the hotel lobby. Please let Karen Doehner know if you are vegetarian or have any dietary preferences or restrictions that we should take into consideration when arranging for the meals.
