Airports
We recommend flying into Logan International Airport and using either the shared rides or shuttle for transportation to Worcester. It takes about 1 hour to get to Worcester from Logan Airport. During rush hours, the journey might take longer.
If you are coming from one of the destinations that fly directly to Worcester Regional Airport, you can conveniently use this option as well. This airport is 10 minutes away from WPI campus. However, flights to Worcester Airport are usually limited in terms of times and destinations.
Shuttle Services
You can use Knights Airport Limousine Services (rates start at $60) or any shared ride company (e.g. Uber, Lyft) of your preference.
Public Transportation or Driving
You can find information about other ways to get to campus from WPI’s website. The hotels are conveniently located less than a mile away from WPI campus.
