GETTING TO CAMPUS
By Air:
From the Pittsburgh International Airport, the
Airlines Transportation Company shuttle bus departs
from the lower level of the airport every half
hour and drops visitors at hotels in downtown
Pittsburgh. From most hotels in Downtown, Duquesne
is about a 10-15 minute walk, though it would
probably be more convenient to take a cab ride
(about $3.00) from the hotel to the campus. The
shuttle bus will cost about $10.00. The trip to
or from the Airport takes approximately 45 minutes.
Cab service from the airport into Pittsburgh is
approximately $30.00 and takes approximately 45
minutes.
PATransit bus service on the
28X "Airport Flyer" route is $2 one
way (schedule available at airport). The bus departs
from the airport approximately every 45 minutes
at the lower level bus stop. It drops visitors
off in Downtown Pittsburgh, or at the Duquesne
University pedestrian bridge on Boulevard of the
Allies.
