Airline Travel
Rick Husband International Airport is located 26 miles northeast of campus in Amarillo, TX. Unfortunately, there is no public transportation available, so we will arrange ground transportation to and from the airport. The cost is $10 each way (can be paid on the registration site *preferred*, or in cash directly to the shuttle driver).
A camp staff member will meet each airplane on Sunday, July 6th, and will be waiting in the baggage claim area downstairs to direct the campers to the van/buses. There will be transportation for campers back to the airport on July 12th.
On the day of departure, we will have the camper at the airport about one hour before the plane is scheduled to depart. That means that we will load and leave campus about one hour and forty-five minutes before the plane departs. A detailed departure schedule by airline and flight number will appear in the daily bulletin during camp.
We need to have an accurate count so that we have the proper number of vehicles to transport students and their luggage. We suggest that you make your airline reservations early.
Please schedule flights with the following times in mind:
| ARRIVALS | DEPARTURES |
| Sunday, July 6th |
Saturday, July 12th |
| Arrivals between 9:00am - 5:00pm | Departure after 3:00 pm for Junior High students |
| Departure after 5:00 pm for High School students |
Flight information will be collected on the registration portal. Please log in to add or change any flight information for your camper.
