Getting To Portland

BY AIR

We recommend that attendees fly into Portland International Airport (PDX). The Hilton Portland Downtown is located approximately 10 miles (30 minute drive) from the Portland International Airport and is easily accessible by taxi, rental car or bus service.

Portland International Airport (PDX):

Portland's airport is designed to keep you moving, with an easy flow to and from the terminal's gates. You can drive and leave your car in one of the convenient parking facilities. You can utilize the drop-off/pick-up areas located in front of the terminal building on the departure level or take advantage of one of the many ground transportation options, including riding the TriMet MAX train, executive cars, taxis or shuttles that serve the airport. Check out some Travel Tips!

The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is approximately 175 miles from the Hotel (2.5 - 3 hour drive). 

Transportation Options from PDX to the Hotel: 

Light rail

The MAX light rail Red Line is the easiest way to travel to and from the airport. Here are some quick facts:

  • The trip between the airport and downtown Portland takes about 38 minutes.
  • An adult ticket costs $2.50 (Youth $1.25, Honored Citizen $1). MAX ticket machines return change in coins, so small bills are recommended.
  • You can roll your luggage on board.
  • The first train of the day arrives at PDX at 4:45 a.m. The last train departs PDX at 11:50 p.m.
  • The MAX station and ticket machines are located on the lower level, next to the south baggage claim area (turn right at the base of the escalator). View airport map.
  • For complete schedules and more information, visit www.trimet.org/schedules/maxredline.htm.

Taxicabs

The average taxi fare from the airport to downtown (one way) is approximately $35 before gratuity. Radio Cab offers a discount with coupons available on their website. The one-way trip takes 20-40 minutes. You can find taxis waiting in the center section of the airport terminal’s lower roadway outside of baggage claim; to get back to the airport from the city center, you can order a cab through the city’s main operators or from a hotel with a dedicated taxi stand.

Shuttles

When you leave the airport, you will find the shuttles at the bottom entrance of the terminal (outside the baggage claim area) on the other side of the second strip (“Island 2”) near the parking garage.

  • Blue Star Downtown Express is Portland’s only scheduled service between PDX and the Downtown/Lloyd Center areas, leaving Downtown/Lloyd Center and PDX every 30 minutes. $14.00 one-way or $24.00 round-trip. Find Blue Star outside baggage claim on Island #3 of the commercial roadway (look for the sign “Scheduled Buses and Vans”). Visit the Blue Star Downtown Express website for downtown Portland pick-up information.

Discover Portland

Greetings from Portland, Oregon!

downtown-portland-oregon-top

Prosperity Now would like to welcome I'M HOME Conference attendees to Portland and invite you all to explore all that the city has to offer! 

Like its monikers, Portland is pretty unique. It has world-renowned chefs and hundreds of food carts; art in theaters and outside on the street; the world’s largest independent bookstore and highest concentration of craft breweries; a huge urban forest; and a bridge reserved for bicyclists. This isn’t your typical city. If Portland wasn’t so different, it wouldn’t be Portland.

No matter what it is you'd like to be, do, eat or drink - even if you've never tried it before - You Can, in Portland!
