Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) is the only major airport serving the 7th-largest metropolitan area in the United States.
More than 30 million travelers pass through the airport each year.
Located just seven miles from downtown Philadelphia, the Airport is easily accessible from Interstates 76, 95, 476 as well as via high-speed train service to Center City.
The Airport grounds include nearly 19,000 parking spots for both long- and short-term stretches.
But navigating travel to and from PHL via trains and car services is simple, thanks to frequent public transportation service and access to cab and car services:
Taxis charge a flat rate of $28.50 for travel between Center City and the airport, or you can pay the meter to go anywhere else in the metro area ($2.70 upon entry plus $2.30 per mile). Travelers can also hail a Lyft or Uber to their destination. Seven rental car agencies operate at PHL for travelers who want to venture out on their own.
Centrally located between five other regional and international airports, Philadelphia is a breeze to get to for visitors flying through other cities. A short train, bus or car ride from any of these airports will have you exploring Philly in two hours or less:
