One of the MANY great things about living in Warren County is its central location. With Cincinnati immediately to the south and Dayton immediately to the north, we've got the benefit of two cities for quick and easy access. And with a bit more drive, Columbus isn't all that far away either, and a bit further you can venture to Indianapolis, Louisville and Lexington.
So when it's time to hop a plane somewhere, you've got plenty of options. Personally, we've made use of the Cincinnati, Dayton and Columbus airports. Click the headers for each airport to go to their official websites for further details.
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG):
Now one of the first things that may throw you off track if you're new to the area is that the Cincinnati airport, is actually in KENTUCKY! You cross over the Ohio River, take I275 West and a few exists later you're at Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG). Now CVG isn't what it used to be before the Delta/Northwest merger. While still a Delta hub, the number of destinations with direct flights is WAY down. Chances are high that unless you're heading to a major city, you're going via Detroit or Atlanta. And CVG continues to have among the highest airfares in the country due to Delta having relatively little competition. CVG offers more amenities with some shopping and a number of restaurants in the main terminals. You can park at the terminal garages ($14/day), or several companies offer off-site parking with shuttle bus service ($8 or less per day).
Dayton International Airport (DAY):
Another choice is Dayton International Airport (DAY). Located in Vandalia on the northwest side of the city, it's a smaller airport (so easier in and out) and the location is just off the I-70/I-75 interchange. Southwest Air has announced that they'll be adding Dayton as a result of their Airtran purchase. As you might guess, airfares are typically cheaper. You'll have less shopping and dining available in the terminal, but do you really go to the airport for that? There's plenty of parking with prices ranging from $6 to $20/daily.
Port Columbus International Airport (CMH):
Another easily accessible airport, Port Columbus International Airport is located on the northeast side of Columbus and readily served by I-270 access. Again, easy to get in and out of, and plenty of parking ($4 to $27/daily). With most of the major airlines serving CMH and Southwest Air being the largest passenger carrier in volume, the competition keeps the rates reasonable. There's some shopping and your typical airport dining offerings.
So if you're life is moving you to the Cincinnati/Dayton area and frequent travel is part of your job, you may want to consider Warren County's communities as your new home! And if you need help finding that new home, please give us a call!
