If you plan to take a bus, Peter pan is the only option at this point. Or
you can do what Kobena is suggesting.

Folks,

 

We have explored all kinds of private transportation options to and from
Springfield but the results have not been great. At this point, besides
taking  Peter Pan or Greyhound, the only other realistic option is for folks
to band together in groups of 4 or 6 and take either Uber or Lyft. For the
purposes of getting an estimated cost, when you reserve Uber or Lyft from
South Station to the Hotel in Springfield   for Friday 5/5/23 (around 11:30
am), The average cost per passenger comes to approximately $35. . And we
assume it would be about the same coming back on Saturday.

 

Those of you interested may want to consider that option, as that may take
less time and bring you straight to the hotel. Coming back, you could
arrange to be picked up from the chapter house back to whatever address you
decide on in Boston. Again, that should take less time because they won't
have to stop on the way compared to the bus which always stops in Worcester.

The address for the hotel is: The  Hampton Inn and Suites Downtown
Springfield. 851 East Columbus Ave, Springfield, Massachusetts, 01105.

And the Springfield Chapter house is located at 910 Liberty St., Springfield
01104.
