💡 Local Tip
During University of Maine move-in, graduation, and home-game weekends, transient parking and tie-downs can fill quickly, so call ahead and arrive early if you are flying in for campus events.
🚖 Getting There
A car, taxi, or rideshare is the most practical way to reach the airport, as there is no scheduled public transit service to the field. From I-95, follow signs for Old Town and Route 2/16; the airport is a short drive from downtown Old Town and the University of Maine. If you need a rental car, arrange it in Bangor or Orono before arrival, since on-site options are limited.
