+## Travel Information
+### **Airports**
+Bangkok has two airports—BKK and DMK are unique facilities in completely different part of towns, separated by dozens of traffic-filled kilometers, which will take you an hour (minimum) to traverse.
+
+BKK - Suvarnabhumi Airport (31.9 km to Centara Grand Hotel)
+DMK - Don Mueang International Airport (23.5 km to Centara Grand Hotel)
+
+
+
+### **Airlines**
+The vast majority of international airlines that fly to Thailand only fly to Suvarnabhumi. Don Mueang, on the other hand, is primarily served by low-cost airlines, and only by airlines that are either Thai or are based within Southeast Asia. As a general rule, if you are flying from North America, New Zealand or Europe to Thailand, you will arrive at or depart from BKK. From Australia, there is the remote possibility that you may connect through Kuala Lumpur or Singapore on a low-cost airline and arrive at DMK.
+
+### **Parking**
+Complimentary for overnight guests & Conf. Attendees

+## Code of Ethics
+The open exchange of ideas, the freedom of thought and expression, and respectful scientific debate are central to the aims and goals of the ACL. These require a community and an environment that recognizes the inherent worth of every person and group, that fosters dignity, understanding, and mutual respect, and embraces diversity. For these reasons, ACL is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for all the members, as well as participants at our events and in our programs.
+Harassment and hostile behavior are unwelcome at any ACL conference, associated event, or in ACL-affiliated online discussions. This includes speech or behavior that intimidates, creates discomfort, or interferes with a person’s participation or opportunity for participation in a conference or an event. We aim for ACL-related activities to be an environment where harassment in any form does not happen, including but not limited to: harassment based on race, gender, religion, age, color, appearance, national origin, ancestry, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Harassment includes degrading verbal comments, deliberate intimidation, stalking, harassing photography or recording, inappropriate physical contact, and unwelcome sexual attention. The policy is not intended to inhibit challenging scientific debate, but rather to promote it by ensuring that all are welcome to participate in the shared spirit of scientific inquiry. Vexatious complaints and willful misuse of this procedure will render the complainant subject to the same sanctions as a violation of the anti-harassment policy.
+
+## ACL Anti-Harassment Policy
+ACL2024 adheres to the [ACL Anti-Harassment Policy](https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=Anti-Harassment_Policy) . It is the responsibility of the community as a whole to promote an inclusive and positive environment for our scholarly activities.
+Any participant who experiences harassment or hostile behavior may contact any current member of the[ACL Professional Conduct Committee](https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php/Professional_Conduct_Committee). Please be assured that if you approach us, your concerns will be kept in strict confidence, and we will consult with you on any actions taken.
