| How Do I Get To Philadelphia |
Airplaning In: Your Chariot Awaits (Unless It's Delayed)
Philadelphia International Airport (PHL), conveniently close to Center City, is your landing zone. All the bigwigs in the airline game flock there, so finding a flight should be easier than dodging a rogue soft pretzel (though those things are delicious, so dodging might be a bad call).
Pro Tip: Download a movie or two for the flight. Unless you get stuck next to someone who really wants to discuss their stamp collection. In that case, feign sleep or pretend you only speak a very obscure language.
QuickTip: Look for repeated words — they signal importance.
Train Time: Tracks to Philly's Heart
Amtrak is your best bet for a scenic (well, as scenic as train rides go) journey into Philly. Catch a train from major cities and relax as the world whizzes by. Just don't get so relaxed you miss your stop – nobody wants a Rocky montage in Trenton.
Word to the Wise: Pack some snacks for the ride. Train food can be, ahem, interesting. Unless you're a big fan of lukewarm mystery meat sandwiches.
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.
Road Trip Ready: Hitting the Open Highway (or I-95)
If you're feeling adventurous (and maybe a little bit brave – I-95 can be a beast), then a road trip might be your jam. Just be sure to pack your patience, some killer road trip tunes, and a designated navigator (unless you want to end up in Atlantic City instead – don't judge, it happens).
Bonus Tip: Be sure to check traffic conditions before you embark on your journey. There's nothing chill about a six-hour road trip that should've taken three.
Tip: Every word counts — don’t skip too much.
