Transportation Options for the OU OU Advocacy Attorneys Conference

If you're within driving distance, this can be cost-effective and gives you flexibility during your stay. Florida is accessible via several major interstates (I-75, I-95, I-10, I-4). Consider the time investment though – it's a long drive from many locations. Factor in gas, tolls, and parking costs at the conference venue, which can be expensive in major cities like Miami or Orlando.

Amtrak serves Florida with routes like the Silver Star and Silver Meteor from the Northeast, and the Auto Train from Virginia (which lets you bring your car). The journey is scenic but time-consuming – expect 18-24 hours from cities like New York or Washington DC. This works well if you enjoy train travel and aren't in a rush.

Greyhound and other bus companies offer service to Florida's major cities. This is typically the most budget-friendly option but also the slowest. Megabus and FlixBus also serve some Florida routes and can be more comfortable than traditional bus services.
