Transportation

Getting to Pittsburgh and around the city is easy and convenient. Here are some transportation options:

Air Travel

Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) is the closest major airport, located approximately 20 miles from the Sheraton Pittsburgh Hotel at Station Square. It offers direct flights to and from many U.S. and international destinations. Ground transportation options from the airport include rental cars, rideshare services, and shuttle buses.

Airport to Hotel

SuperShuttle Express and ExecuCar are excited to be the preferred transportation partner for MECC 2025 in Pittsburgh over October 5–8, 2025. Link to book: https://www.supershuttle.com/groups/mecc2025/

Public Transportation

Pittsburgh’s Port Authority operates an efficient public transit system, including buses and light rail (the “T”). The “T” has a station at Station Square, offering free rides downtown, making it a convenient choice for conference attendees.

Driving

For those driving to the conference, the Sheraton Pittsburgh Hotel provides on-site parking. Pittsburgh’s central location makes it an easy drive from many cities in the northeastern United States.

Local Transportation

Once in Pittsburgh, rideshare apps like Uber and Lyft, as well as taxis, are widely available. Additionally, Pittsburgh’s downtown is walkable, and Station Square’s riverside location offers easy pedestrian access to nearby attractions.
