By air

There are two airports close to Cincinnati:

* Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) [http://www.cvgairport.com/] is on the Kentucky side of the Ohio River, so you'll have to cross the bridge to get to Cincinnati itself. Delta has its second largest hub here.
* 'Dayton International Airport' (DAY) [http://www.daytonairport.com/] is about 50 miles to the north.

By car

Cincinnati is served by Interstates 71 (from Columbus and Louisville), 74 (from Indianapolis), 75 (from Dayton and Lexington), 471 (a spur of I-71- to the south), and 275 (the circle beltway). US 50 also serves the area as an expressway to the eastern neighborhoods (Columbia Parkway) and western neighborhoods via the Sixth Street Expressway, which links River Road and the Waldvogel Memorial Viaduct to Downtown.

One of the most beautiful panoramic views in the country occurs when driving northbound on Interstate 71/75 (the interstate routes share the same highway in part of Northern Kentucky) travelling into downtown Cincinnati, just before the Brent Spence Bridge.  Traffic on the bridge sometimes backs up, though, especially during rush hour. Try to plan your trips so you don't get too much of this truly spectacular view!

By train

* All incoming and outgoing passenger trains stop at Union Terminal/Cincinnati Museum Center.  The station is several miles from downtown Cincinnati and since all trains arrive before public transportation is available it may be wise to call a taxi to finish your journey.

By bus

* Greyhound offers passenger bus service from many U.S. cities. Buses arrive and depart from Greyhound's station in downtown Cincinnati.
* Megabus is a budget bus company offering direct service from Cincinnati to Indianapolis and Chicago and vice versa.
