Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) is 19 miles west of Downtown Pittsburgh via I-376 E (Parkway West), a 28–38 minute drive off-peak. The airport handled 9.1 million passengers in 2023 and serves as a US Airways/American Airlines focus city. PIT has a landside terminal and an airside terminal connected by an underground People Mover. Detailed Drivers chauffeurs meet all arrivals at baggage claim on the landside terminal with a name sign. The main traffic chokepoint on the PIT–Downtown route is the Fort Pitt Tunnel on I-376 E — during 4–7 PM rush hour, tunnel backup adds 20–35 minutes. Flat-rate PIT transfers from Downtown start at $100 for a Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan, $90 for a First Class SUV. Domestic arrivals receive 60 minutes of complimentary wait time; international arrivals receive 90 minutes.
