  • At the Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT), at Gate C56, children can enjoy playing at the Kidsport, the designated play area. This is an interactive space featuring Daniel Tiger and Mr. Rogers exhibits where children can have fun and make-believe, becoming part of the neighborhood.
  • P IT has launched a therapy dog program called PAWS, Pups Alleviating Worry and Stress. Trained therapy dogs and their certified handlers roam the airport, hoping to comfort passengers who might be feeling anxious, confused, or bereaved. Passengers are very much encouraged to pet, cuddle, hug, smooch, and take pictures with these dogs.

Both the Economy Lot and Long-Term parking are within walking distance of the terminal. The walk takes approximately 10min. Extended Parking is the only lot that offers a shuttle to the terminal.

Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) has eight relief stations throughout their many terminals.

If you need to take a cab, there will be a flat fee, often a surcharge based on the time of day, plus the tip. The total price ends up being around $90 to $100. An Uber or Lyft can be even more costly than a cab.
