When will the new Campus-2-Campus reservation system be available, and which reservation link should I use?
The new C2C reservation system is scheduled to launch on November 4, 2026, allowing passengers to begin booking trips for 2027 travel.
During the transition, two reservation options will be available:
- 2026 Travel Reservations: For trips departing in November through December 23, 2026, including changes to existing reservations.
- 2027 Travel Reservations: For trips departing in 2027, with the first trips using the new system scheduled for January 6.
Select the reservation link corresponding to your departure date to ensure your trip is booked in the appropriate system.
Do I need to create a new account, and how do I receive my Cornell-affiliated discount?
Yes. All passengers will need to create a new account when accessing the new reservation system for the first time, even if they have previously traveled with C2C.
Current Cornell students, faculty, and staff should use their Cornell email to sign-in with Cornell Single Sign-On (SSO). This allows the system to recognize their affiliation and apply eligible ticket discounts.
C2C remains available to the public, including family members, visitors, and travelers without a Cornell affiliation. Non-affiliated passengers can create a standard account and book trips at the applicable public fare.
Do I need to download an app, and can I make reservations for multiple passengers?
No app download is required. The new reservation system can be accessed directly through a web browser on your smartphone, tablet, or computer.
The updated system also allows you to book multiple passengers in a single reservation, making it easier to travel with family, friends, or colleagues.
Simply select your trip, choose the number of passengers, enter the required passenger information, select your seats, and complete your reservation.
Applicable fares and discounts are determined by passenger eligibility and the reservation's payment requirements.
Can I choose my seat when making a reservation?
Yes! The new reservation system includes an interactive seat selector, allowing passengers to view available seating and choose their preferred seats when booking.
Traveling with others? You can select available seats for multiple passengers within the same reservation, making it easier to sit together.
Seat selection is subject to availability at the time of booking. We recommend completing your reservation promptly to secure your preferred seats.
What if my preferred Campus-2-Campus trip is fully booked?
If your preferred trip is fully booked, we encourage you to explore other available departure times or travel dates through our reservation system.
Our C2C team regularly monitors passenger demand and may add additional service when operationally feasible. Any newly available trips will be listed in the reservation system, so we recommend checking back periodically for updates.
You can also contact our C2C team by creating a ticket or call 607-254-8747 for assistance exploring available travel options.
What happens to my existing reservations? Are ticket prices, schedules, or services changing?
Reservations for trips departing in November or December 2026 will continue to be managed through the existing 2026 reservation system.
For travel in 2027, use the new reservation platform. If you are uncertain about an existing reservation, contact the C2C office before making another booking to avoid duplicate reservations.
The transition does not change C2C's existing schedules, ticket rates, service locations, or amenities. Current fare policies and applicable fees remain in effect.
The new system simply provides an improved way to book and manage your travel.
Can I still charge Campus-2-Campus travel to my Cornell department?
Yes. Eligible Cornell business travelers can continue using departmental account charging for approved business-related travel.
When making your reservation, select the departmental billing option and provide the appropriate Cornell accounting information supplied by your department.
Cornell business-related travel. Travelers are responsible for providing accurate account information and ensuring that the trip is approved by their department.
Cornell procurement cards (PCards) should not be used to purchase departmental C2C travel.
