Airport and Out of Town Travel

Traveling beyond Williamsburg? Check out the ways Parking & Transportation can help get you where you need to be.

Airport Shuttle Service

Parking & Transportation operates van shuttle service to and from Richmond International (RIC) and occasionally to the Newport News/Williamsburg International (PHF) for scheduled breaks in the academic year. For trips with high passenger counts, we work with our partners Oleta and Academy Transportation to organize charter bus service.

**Standard departure and return trip times**
Departure	Return
8:00 AM, 11:00 AM, 3:00 PM	1:00 PM, 6:00 PM, 11:00 PM

Signups

Electronic forms to request a shuttle or reserve a seat are posted below when they become available. If you need to exit the form before it's complete, your progress will be saved, however, incomplete forms will be automatically deleted after 24 hours. If this happens, the form will have to be started again from the beginning. When the survey closes at the time listed, incomplete forms will not be honored.

After a reservation is confirmed, payment is required before date of travel. The default payment method is William & Mary Express. Please have sufficient funds in your Express account by the date online requests close (see table above).
