TRAVEL TO EUGENE 2.1 Official Airports and Arrival Information There are two official airports to which you can arrive in Oregon. Eugene Airport (EUG) is located in Eugene, OR 19 kilometres from the University of Oregon campus. The Eugene Airport only accepts domestic arrivals, so traveling into Eugene will require a transfer connection in another US city. Portland International Airport (PDX) is located in Portland, OR. It has daily direct flights from Europe and Asia. It is an approximately 2 hr. drive and 200 kilometres to Eugene. Transportation from either airport to the University of Oregon will be provided by the LOC. Teams arriving prior to 18 July must make arrangements with the LOC directly by emailing [email protected]. At each airport arriving delegations will be greeted by the airport Services Team, who will escort them to the airport Welcome Centre where those at the information and transportation desks will help facilitate the movement of teams to their appropriate accommodations. In case of lost luggage, the LOC will make every effort to help locate it. The Team Leader is nevertheless expected to declare the missing luggage at the Lost and Found office. The Team Leader may be also requested to return to the airport to identify the luggage if it was not located immediately. Consequently, transportation of the lost luggage to the accommodation venue will be arranged by the airlines and the LOC. To accommodate departures on 28 July, the local Organizing Committee will provide ground transportation to both airports. 2.2 Transport of Oversized Baggage Teams are responsible for the transportation of their equipment to the final destination airport. Equipment can travel with the team via airline, but please note that planes arriving into Eugene Airport (EUG) may not be able to accommodate oversized baggage (pole bags and javelins in particular). In order to ensure that equipment arrives in due time, please confirm with the airlines on each segment of your travel that oversized baggage will be accepted, transported and properly transferred. The LOC will transport equipment from PDX to Eugene if notified by the Member Federation via email and prior to the arrival date that such transport is requested. If you are interested in shipping equipment directly to Eugene you may ship to the following address, Items should arrive no earlier than 14 July and the LOC must be notified with tracking information so that they will be prepared to receive your shipment. Please include the name of your Federation and Team Leader on the first line of the address, as in the example below: Oregon 2014 Local Organizing Committee – Federation Name, Team Leader Name c/o Lile Storage 3330 Roosevelt Blvd Eugene, OR. 97401 USA IAAF World Junior Championships Eugene 2014 – Team Manual 11 For questions or information on third-party services that specialize in the shipping of pole vault poles contact the LOC at [email protected]. Special arrangements will be made for the vaulting poles, which will be collected by the LOC directly at the airport. A tag with the athlete’s details will be placed on the pole for easier identification. On the way back they will go directly from the Stadium to the airport where they will be collected by the athlete or team official before flight check-in. Please see the LOC Airport desk for questions on collection. 2.3 Entry Visas Please refer to the list of IAAF Member Federations and respective visa category in Appendix. If your country is listed under Category 1 and is eligible for the Visa Waiver Program, please visit the following website and complete the Electronic System for Travel Authorization: www.esta.us If your country is listed under Category 2 or Category 3, you need to obtain a visa to enter the United States. In order to obtain a visa, all applicants must go through the following process. Please begin this process as soon as possible. 1. Please email [email protected] with the names of all athletes and staff who will be traveling with your federation to Oregon. The LOC will need the following information for each individual: a.

Once you receive the letters including each individual from your delegation, you will have to fill out an online visa application and to schedule an appointment at the U.S. Embassy or Consulate closest to you. Please note that all team/delegation members will need to file individual applications, and that while all may be processed as a delegation, each member will need to appear for an interview at the U.S. Embassy/Consulate.

Furthermore, proof of such insurance is now required in most cases to obtain visas, e.g., in the Schengen area. For more information please see IAAF Circular Letter M/06/14. 2.5 Global Ambassador Team Attachés The Local Organising Committee is very keen on providing the best assistance to all athletes and officials travelling to Eugene through a very comprehensive and innovative Attachés programme called “Global Ambassador Team Attaché́”.
