Getting Around
How to get to and from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport — taxis, public transport, shuttles and car rental.
Transport Options at BWI
Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport is connected to Baltimore and the wider United States transport network by multiple ground transport options.
MARC commuter trains (Penn Line, and the weekday-only Camden Line) and Amtrak both stop at BWI Rail Station, which is a separate building connected to the terminal by a free shuttle bus (about 10 minutes) rather than a direct walkway — budget the extra transfer time.
The Baltimore Light RailLink has a BWI stop reached the same way, via the free shuttle bus, plus local MTA bus routes connect to nearby Maryland communities.
Available curbside at each terminal door.
Uber and Lyft pick up from a designated curbside area, clearly signed outside baggage claim.
A large consolidated rental car facility, a short shuttle ride from the terminal, houses all the major companies.
If you're taking MARC/Amtrak or the Light Rail, remember the rail station isn't inside the terminal — you need the free shuttle bus first, so add 10–15 minutes to whatever the train schedule shows.
