Kansas City Airport and Hotel Information
by Jelaila
What airport should I fly into?
Kansas City has one main airport, Kansas City International (MCI). It is located on the northwest section of town and is about 35 minutes from my home. From the airport take I-29 North to I-435
South. Continue on I-435 South to Midland Drive (for hotels) and to 87th Street for my house. It is the next exit south of Midland Dr.
When making flight reservations, around what time should I schedule my return flight?
The workshop is scheduled to end at 5pm. I recommends that you schedule your flight no earlier than 8pm if you must leave that evening. I
strongly recommend that you stay over that night to rest, relax, and give yourself time to integrate the intense clearing you have done. In addition, this allows you to enjoy the celebration that
usually takes place the evening that the workshop ends.
What about transportation to and from the airport?
You can take the KCI and Quicksilver shuttles or a taxi.
KCi Shuttle - http://www.kctg.com (816) 243-5000
Quicksilver Shuttle - http://www.kcquicksilver.com (800) 888-8294
Where do I stay?
I rent out rooms at my home for workshops. Click here for info on
staying with me.
