The Daily Bruin

George Fox is once again partnering with Hillsboro Airporter to provide a shuttle service to Portland International Airport for Thanksgiving break.

Students will be expected to work directly with Hillsboro Airporter to reserve their spot. See the details below:

• The cost for one passenger is $65 plus a tip. Each additional passenger is $3.
• Each shuttle can fit five to six passengers. The cost per student is based on the total number of passengers during the scheduled times, so if you can fill one shuttle with six passengers, the cost per student could be as low as $15.
• Make your reservations more than 24 hours in advance and Hillsboro Airporter can group you together. To reserve your spot, click here.
• Hillsboro Airporter accepts cash or credit card for payment. Parents can call Hillsboro Airporter with a credit card to pay for their student’s fare.
• Hillsboro Airporter has 24/7 service. It will work with students and their families to put students together to lower the cost of the fare.
