Getting There
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:
- SEPTA’s Airport Regional Rail Line serves the airport from University City, 30th Street, Suburban and Jefferson Stations
- Amtrak connects to SEPTA’s Airport Regional Rail at William H. Gray III 30th Street Station
- Three SEPTA bus routes serve several areas in the region: Route 37 to/from South Philadelphia and Chester, Pa.; Route 108 to/from 69th Street Transportation Center; and Route 115 to/from Suburban Square in Ardmore.
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:
