Getting From Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) to Downtown
Once your flight to Pittsburgh lands, you have multiple transportation options to fit your budget and schedule. PIT is about 20 to 25 miles from downtown, so having a plan in mind can save time and hassle, especially in busy hours or late at night.
- Rideshares and taxis: You'll find rideshares and taxis available just outside the terminal. In typical traffic, you can usually reach downtown Pittsburgh in about 20 to 30 minutes, so it's a straightforward choice when speed is a priority.
- Rental cars: Renting a car gives you maximum flexibility to explore Pittsburgh and nearby areas. The rental car counters and facility are located across the road from the terminal, and booking ahead of time can help you get on the road faster.
- Public transit and hotel shuttles: Public buses to downtown and nearby neighborhoods pick up from the ground transportation area on the arrivals level. Many hotels and private shuttles also use this curbside zone, so it's a good idea to check your reservation for the exact pickup location.
What's The Best Time To Visit Pittsburgh?
- Spring and Fall: Two of the best times to visit for comfortable weather and scenic views, particularly the stunning fall foliage along the riverfronts.
- Summer: Expect peak travel demand for Pittsburgh direct flights as the city comes alive with outdoor festivals, concerts, and events.
- Winter: You'll arrive to a quieter city with colder temperatures. Be prepared for potential weather disruptions during the snowy months.
- Year-Round Action: Keep in mind that major sports seasons and university events can impact travel demand throughout the entire year.

Visit Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh’s steel-producing past isn’t the only fascinating part of this epic city. While you can certainly learn about Pittsburgh’s influence on the steel industry during the mid-twentieth century and WWII, you won’t want to miss the city’s budding art scene, famous foods, and walkable adventures. Start your visit by exploring Pittsburgh’s finest museums, one of the most famous being the Andy Warhol Museum. From iconic pop-art prints of silver screen stars and household staples, this space is considered one of the world’s most comprehensive single-artist museums. Next, explore the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. This family-friendly museum offers visitors an opportunity to learn more about the effects of humans on the ecosystem, extensive dinosaur bone exhibits, and more. Both of these landmark museums are must-sees during your visit.
After your journey through the past, you’ll want to make time to breathe in the refreshing mountain breeze. Visit the Duquesne Incline to get a breathtaking view of the city. This is one of the last remaining cable car inclines in the country, allowing you to take a step back in time for a view of modern Pittsburgh. While you’re in the area, explore Mount Washington, one of the city’s most popular neighborhoods. Pull yourself away from the spectacular view to eat at some of Pittsburgh’s finest restaurants on Restaurant Row. Not far from this area, you can also visit Emerald View Park, a 10-mile trail system surrounding other historic parks. Pack a picnic and admire the greenery.
