We want your trip to the 2022 Teach Better Conference to be the best it can be, and that goes beyond the amazing keynotes, breakout sessions, and networking events. We want to make sure you get here safely, have a place to stay, and know where to grab a bite to eat or a drink with friends.
Below, you'll find information about the conference location, which airports you should consider flying into (if you're flying), and other important information.
We have also compiled a list of local hotels, restaurants, and bars.

If you are traveling to Teach Better 2022 by plane, you have two options for airports to fly into.
Cleveland-Hopkins International Airport (CLE)
The CLE airport is about a 45 minute drive to Akron, but it's a fairly easy drive on freeways. CLE is a major international hub, so you'll almost always have a wide variety of flights to choose from. This makes it likely a better choice than CAK for most, but it is also about 20 minutes further from Akron, so we suggest checking flights to CAK first.

Akron-Canton Airport (CAK)
The CAK airport is about a 25 minute drive to Akron. Just grab I-77 North to OH-8 North. This is a much smaller airport than CLE, but you can usually find plenty of flights to most major cities. Bonus is that the terminal is small and easy to navigate so going through security and getting bags from baggage claim are both typically quick and easy.
