For those coming from abroad:  when your passport is stamped, you will need to make sure it is stamped that you are coming to the US for business, not vacation.  LANL can not reimburse travelers on vacation.

We are working on room blocks.  The Comfort Inn and Suites is very close (~200m) to the venue.  We are working on this room block now.

We have set up a room block for the Holiday Inn Express but it is >6km from the venue.   The Wingate is right next to the venue.  

For reimburesements:  If you use the room block, we will be able to reimburse you (you will pay for the hotel and send us the receipt)

You can fly into New Mexico either through Albuquerque Sunport or Santa Fe Airport .  The latter is closer (~80km to Los Alamos, ABQ is 160km) but much smaller.

For reimburesements:  As with the hotel, you will purchase your airline ticket and we will reimburse you.  Federal regulations require that, for reimbursement, you must follow the Fly America Act .  Although this states that you must fly american airlines, there is an open skies agreement (see the Fly America Act website) that allows you to get your ticket from most European Carriers (see list).

The easiest way to get to Los Alamos is to rent a car.  As with everything else, you should book your own rental car.  If you, for some reason can't or do not want to rent a car, let Chris Fryer (fryer@lanl.gov) know.  We will find a way to get you to Los Alamos.

LANL has negotiated prices with Hertz:  LANL code is 72120 and Enterprise/National: LANL code is XZ34001.  Because you are being reimbursed by LANL for official LANL travel, these should work for you.  If not, don't worry about it, we will be able to reimburse any reasonable rental (economy/mid-size).
