Get in

By plane

There are two airports close to Newport:

• Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) [1] is on the Kentucky side of the Ohio River.
• Louisville International Airport (IATA: SDF, IACO: KSDF) [2]

By car

Newport is served by Interstates 71 (from Columbus and Louisville), 75 (from Dayton and Lexington), 471 (a spur of I-71- to the south), and 275 (the circle beltway). 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.

By train

Amtrak [3], offers passenger train service from key U.S. cities. All trains arrive and depart from Union Terminal/Cincinnati Museum Center. This is several miles from Cincinnati, and since most of the trains arrive before dawn, before public transportation is available, it may be wise to call a taxi to finish the rest of your journey.

By bus

Greyhound [4] offers passenger bus service from many U.S. cities. Buses arrive and depart from Greyhound's station in downtown Cincinnati.
