So...where exactly is Corvallis?
Our town of 40,000 people is located in the heart of Oregon. It's about 90 minutes south of Portland, 45 minutes north of Eugene and 40 minutes south of Salem.
BY PLANE:
Corvallis has no major airport...you will need to fly to one of these, and then take a car or shuttle. Convenient shuttle service is available through HUT: http://www.hutshuttle.com/. Cost to shuttle from Portland Airport to Corvallis is $48.
- Portland International Airport (PDX) - 90 minutes north of Corvallis, and your best option.
- Eugene Airport (EUG) - 45 minutes south of Corvallis. Another option but less flights available and they are usually more expensive.
- Salem Airport (SLE) - 40 minutes north of Corvallis. Delta Airlines flies to this airport twice a day, but you are limited to Delta and tickets can be more expensive.
