How to get to Toledo by Air
Two options:
1. Fly in to Detroit Metro, rent a car / take a shuttle to Toledo.
Detroit Metro is about 50 miles from UT.
2. Fly in to Toledo Express and take a taxi / shuttle to campus or to your hotel.
Toledo Express is about 25 miles from the University.
We strongly suggest that if you are not renting a car anyway, you investigate the cost of a shuttle before deciding on whether to fly in via Detroit or Toledo. The savings of using Detroit Metro may be offset by the cost of taking a shuttle or taxi the additional mileage from Detroit.
Best routes from Detroit Metro: (1) I-94 to I-275 W, to I-75 S, exit at N. Detroit Ave., turn right on Bancroft, follow Bancroft to the University, total 52 miles; OR (2) take I-94 W to US 23 S, to I-475 E, exit I-475 E at Secor, go south to the University, total 59 miles. The second route is 7 miles longer but more scenic (on US 23) and less prone to construction slowdowns.
