There are plenty of airports in the country where taking the bus or the train is still the best option after arriving at the airport. Don't miss those opportunities.
An article by Ryan Croft promotes a new app from TransitScreen designed to take the mystery out of ground transportation at airports.
The Airport Hubs feature in the CityMotion app offers "specific instructions for how to find your mobility options" upon landing at any fo 22 busy airports in the United States.
"At a growing number of airports, you’ll even get specific directions from your exact terminal or concourse. And, as always, you’ll have real-time updates to make sure you’re maximizing your time, not standing on a train platform with your luggage," according to Croft.
Here is the list of airports where the new Airport Hubs feature is now available: Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta (ATL); Logan (BOS); Baltimore-Washington (BWI); Charlotte Douglas (CLT); Ronald Reagan Washington National (DCA); Denver (DEN); Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW); Newark Liberty (EWR); Daniel K. Inouye (HNL); John F Kennedy (JFK); McCarran (LAS); Los Angeles (LAX); LaGuardia (LGA); Miami (MIA); Orlando (MCO); Midway (MDW); Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP); O’Hare (ORD); Portland (PDX) ; Philadelphia (PHL); Phoenix Sky Harbor (PHX); San Diego (SAN); Seattle-Tacoma (SEA); San Francisco (SFO); Tampa (TPA).
