Accessible Transportation from the Airport to Your Hotel
The San Diego International Airport offers accessible transportation options from the airport to downtown hotels.
Public transportation via the Flyer Route No. 992, a bus that travels to and from the airport and downtown San Diego, is available and can be boarded outside baggage claim in Terminals 1 and 2. For more information, visit https://www.sdmts.com/getting-around/airport to read about Route 992.
Taxi and other shuttle services are also available. Proceed to curbside outside baggage claim in both terminals and speak with an Airport Traffic Officer.
The San Diego International Airport offers additional assistance through its Airport Ambassador program. To ensure a safe and successful trip, ambassadors are available in both terminals and can assist in obtaining accessible transportation. Contact ambassadors in Terminal 1 by calling 619-400-2261 or 619-400-2263; contact ambassadors in Terminal 2 by calling 619-400-2262 or 619-400-2264.
Accessible ASH Shuttle Vehicles
ASH has partnered with Kushner & Associates for wheelchair-accessible shuttles from hotels to the convention center on the shuttle route. There will be no additional fee passed along to the participant for this service. Please make advance arrangements by phone by contacting Erika Hinzman at 310-274-8819, ext. 1005, or by email at [email protected]. If advance arrangements have not been made, participants can call or text the ASH Shuttle Hotline at 818-573-8346 from 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, December 5 and through 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, December 10.
Scooter Rental
Sessions and networking events will occur at the convention center and adjacent hotels. For those with mobility concerns, ASH recommends contacting Scootaround Mobility Services for scooter rental. These scooters may be used in between buildings and to travel to and from a nearby hotel. The scooters may be charged in the hallway or guest room overnight. Scooters may be driven into session rooms and parked in open spaces near the front or back of the session room. Please reserve at least two weeks in advance, if possible, by calling 888-441-7575. Scooter rentals cannot be made on site in San Diego; advance reservations are required. ASH staff are available upon request to provide a hands-on orientation to elevator locations and using the scooters in crowded hallways.
