Airports — Philadelphia
All arrivals land at Philadelphia International, the airport that serves the city, set southwest of Center City on the Delaware River side of town. From the terminals you can reach the centre by regional train, taxi or rideshare. The train runs straight into the downtown stations and is the simplest option if you are travelling light; a taxi or rideshare suits families and anyone heading out to the suburbs. Weekday mornings are slow on the expressways, so build in extra time.
When to go
Philadelphia runs on four proper seasons, so the month you pick decides what you pack. Spring and autumn are mild and comfortable, summer is hot and humid, and winter brings cold spells with snow. Flights fill fastest in summer, when school holidays and European visitors overlap, and again from late autumn through the New Year, when Americans travel home. For an easier seat and a calmer airport, aim for the shoulder months on either side of summer.
