Students can utilize several airports to travel to/from the Pomfret region: • Bradley International Airport, in Windsor Locks, CT • Logan Airport in Boston, MA • T.F. Green Airport in Providence, RI • JFK Airport in New York. In order to avoid disruption of the school schedule and also to simplify transportation to and from area airports, train stations, etc., please schedule departures after 3:00 p.m. and arrivals by 6:00 p.m. Requests for ground transport may be sent to travel@pomfret.org and must be received by the announced deadline. Legends Limo is Pomfret’s partner for travel to and from area airports. Families are encouraged to contact Legends directly at 888-534-3632 or https://www.legendslimo. com/rectory-pomfret-school/ to request a transportation quote and discuss travel options. Legends and Pomfret are committed to safe and comfortable travel. Private livery and group transport are available. Pomfret School does not endorse or condone the use of Uber or Lyft as transportation services. Both services require users to be 18 years or older and do not cover injuries or insure passengers. For this reason, parents/guardians wishing to use these services must give explicit permission to the Dean of Students prior to a student departing campus. IMPORTANT REMINDER: Students are reminded to arrange all vacation plans well in advance (August) to avoid sold-out flights and no-vacancy accommodations. Also, students are not permitted to begin vacations until after their last commitment (class, exam, game/ match). Students and their parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring that the students’ scheduled transportation has allowed for enough travel time for a successful departure from an airport, train station, bus station, etc. Pomfret School will not be held accountable for missed departures resulting from transportation issues, such as insufficiently scheduled travel time or delays caused by traffic. Although the School may assist students and their parents/guardians with the scheduling of transportation, the School is not responsible for the service provided by drivers or independent vendors. The following information should be helpful in planning for transportation at times other than vacation periods:
