Travel / Lodging
Plan Early: May is a busy season in New York City. Hotel rooms and airline connections are at a premium. In order to save money and take advantage of travel discounts we suggest you make your reservations as soon as you can.
Dress Code: Business casual is appropriate for all PME conferences. Large spaces such as theaters and ballrooms are sometimes too hot for some and too cold for others. We encourage you to dress in light layers and to bring a sweater, shawl or blazer.
