  3. Seating is limited, plan early. 
  4. There will be no student conductor roles as we have had in the past.
  5. If you are a student with a documented disability or a temporary impairment that may require accommodations in your transportation arrangements with Williams Transport, please contact the Office of Accessible Education by dialing 413-597-4672 or email [email protected] after purchasing your ticket.  Accessible Education will work with you to coordinate accommodations with Williams Transport.  Please note: ticket purchases made within 24 hours of departure may impact our ability to provide requested accommodations.
  6. Student identification is required at check-in.
  7. Due to ongoing bus driver shortage, obtaining more buses than what we see listed is a challenge at this time.  If you do not get on the bus you desire, please select a secondary trip (earlier or later) than your desired trip.
  8. If you arrive at the bus and are missing your passport, driver’s license or any other important item you need to travel, the bus CANNOT wait while you run back to your dorm.  You will need to remove your luggage and belongings from the bus and schedule another bus if there are any available.  PLEASE remember what you need prior to coming to the bus.
  9. Buses will leave promptly at their scheduled time, it’s important you arrive 15 minutes early for your scheduled departure.
  10. Tickets are non-transferable between students, if you do not need your ticket after the deadline has passed, please notify [email protected] and it will be offered to the next person on the waitlist.
