Dear all,

I'm going to SLUG in Provo in September. My flight lands in Salt Lake
City Airport (SLC) at 7 pm on Sunday 10. I was planning to go by bus or
train from SLC to Provo, but apparently both bus and train have stopped
running by that time on Sundays.

Does anyone know about any alternative way to get to Provo on a Sunday
night?

I would try Uber or Lyft. You should check with your hotel; they may offer a shuttle.

Something else to consider that I just thought of.

If you're arriving late on Sunday, and SLUG doesn't start until Tuesday, you cound just get a hotel in SLC somewhere for Sunday night, and head to Provo some time on Monday, when the FrontRunner train *is* running.

The Trax light rail that goes to/from the airport and around SLC still runs on Sunday, although less often than weekdays.  Obviously check the schedule.

Or an airport hotel for the first night. Done that many times.
