Traveling to Aspen
Although there aren't any direct flights from Europe or Asia to Aspen, Denver International Airport is a major international airport. There are also a few direct flight options into Eagle/Vail Airport from several other U.S. cities. Here are a few options:
Fly from Denver to Aspen
United Airlines flies into Aspen from Denver International Airport, and there are scheduled flights at 10:42am, 1:24pm, 4:14pm, 5:56pm and 8:05pm at that time of year. After arriving in Aspen, a hotel shuttle can pick you up and take you into the town of Aspen (which is less than 10 minutes away).
Fly from Denver to Eagle Airport
Several additional carriers fly into Eagle Airport (from other U.S. cities in addition to Denver). This airport is about an hour-and-a-half away from Aspen. You can arrange for a private charter service to take you from Eagle to Aspen through Colorado Mountain Express Shuttle Service (no shuttle service is available at this time of year).
Fly to Denver and take a Shuttle or Drive to Aspen
You can fly into Denver International Airport and then take a shuttle to Aspen. The drive is a 3.5-hour scenic ride through the mountains. There are scheduled shuttle services to Aspen from the Denver Airport departing at 12:30p.m. and 3:30p.m. Alternatively, you could rent a car and make the drive yourself, stopping at some scenic sites along the way.
Colorado Mountain Express is happy to offer any attendee a discount code that will provide at 20% discount on all shuttle and private charter services. Please use the code INSTITUTE when booking.

Dress Code/What to Wear
Although June is considered a summer month in Aspen, temperatures can vary from 70° F (20° C) during the day to a much cooler 40° F/4° C in the evening. The town does get an occasional shower or thunderstorm that passes through quickly. Delegates attending the Summit are invited to dress in smart, casual clothing. Let comfort be your guide in Aspen, as it is customary to do a bit of walking around town and the campus of the Aspen Institute is spread out. Feel free to skip the jacket and/or tie for Summit meetings, and you are welcome to dress up a bit for evening events. When we head up to the top of Aspen Mountain (elevation 11,212 feet) on Tuesday evening, you'll want to bring a jacket with you as the temperatures will be 8-10 degrees cooler atop Aspen Mountain versus the temperature in town.Denim works for almost any venue in Aspen – whether paired with a rhinestone blouse for the ladies, or worn with a jacket during the day. (Denim and tuxedo jackets are a regular part of the “Aspen Black Tie” scene – but don’t worry, you won’t need that!) A sweater or jacket will keep you warm when the sun goes down. Pack shoes for walking, hiking, tennis or running, as well as an outfit or two for an early morning hike. Oh, and don't forget your boots!
