Travel Considerations

Flight

Dulles International Airport

Transportation is provided from Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) only.  The first shuttle arrives at IAD at 2pm Sunday and the final shuttle leaves the airport at 7pm Sunday. Any student arriving after 7pm will need to pay for own transportation to PHC, even if the delay is outside of the camper’s control. Instructions for taxi service from IAD to PHC will be included in the information packet.

The first shuttle will arrive at IAD at 6:30am on Saturday and the last will arrive at 12pm. There are no exceptions to arrival and departure times. If a camper takes advantage of the Unaccompanied Minor Service offered by some airlines, he must arrive during our shuttle times and we must know in advance. Airline policies require Teen Camp staff to sign paperwork stating that we have picked up the unaccompanied minor and require us on departure to wait with the passenger at the gate until they have boarded the plane. This does not apply to minors who do not take advantage of the Unaccompanied Minor Service. Thus, the departure must occur prior to 12pm on Saturday so that our staff can return to campus on the last shuttle.

Driving

Registration is 2pm-7pm on Sunday. Dinner is offered at 6pm. If you want to take advantage of that, arrive earlier to ensure adequate time to settle in.  All campers must depart Saturday before 12pm. Driving directions will be included in the information packet.  For a list of area hotels with PHC discounts, take a look at the PHC Admissions website (www.phc.edu/admissions) and click on the Visit PHC tab.
