Transportation to Airport from Portland City Center
Portland Intl. Airport
There is only an 8-km distance between the city center and Portland International Airport, which is among the biggest and busiest airports of the state it is located in. Bringing people from any point in the city center to the airport for 24 hours, taxis come first among the vehicles to come to the airport from the city center, which is not so far. Like other cities of the country, Portland is a place where limousines and private shuttles are frequently used for transportation. If you have a private car, you can be at the entrance of the terminals within only a few minutes while coming to the airport from the city center. As an alternative to all of these vehicles, shuttles of many hotels in the city, which are paid or free-of-charge, can be preferred for going to the airport.
Taxi
Taxis can be found within minutes in every corner of Portland’s city center and you can use these cars for reaching the airport. Because the center is very close to the airport, the fee you are going to pay at the end of the journey will generally be low. However, don’t forget that these vehicles can be quite costly if you need to come to the airport from farther places outside Portland’s center. When you come to the airport from central places by a taxi, you will generally pay around 20-30 dollars. If you are concerned about the fee you will pay at the end of your travel before taking one of the taxis, you can go to the airport after learning the average fee from taxi drivers.

Hotel Shuttle
Portland is also a place which hosts a lot of hotels. Most hotels in the city offer private shuttles for those who want to come to the airport from the city center.

You can call 207-253-5005 for Courtyard by Marriott, one of the hotels offering shuttle service to the airport from the city center of Portland, 207-772-3838 for Econolodge or make your reservation for the hotel shuttles by calling 207-775-6161 for DoubleTree by Hilton before going to the airport. If you are staying at a different hotel, you can choose the vehicle with which you will come to the airport by obtaining information about the airport shuttles and the hours from the receptionists of your hotel.
