Travel & Accommodations

  • Airports

    Montgomery is a convenient drive from many southern cities, including Atlanta (2.5 hours), Pensacola (2.5 hours), Nashville (4 hours), New Orleans (4 hours), and Savannah (5.5 hours). Three airports serve the Montgomery-region.

    Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM)

    A small regional airport less than 15 minutes from downtown Montgomery, AL. Offers direct flights from Atlanta, Charlotte (NC), Washington D.C., and Dallas-Fort Worth (TX) with additional connecting options on American Airlines and Delta.

    Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport (BHM)

    Largest airport in the state located 1.5 hours north of Montgomery. An international airport with 30 airlines serving over 130 direct routes and offering over 450 one-stop destinations. There is no mass transit from Montgomery to Birmingham, so a rental car would be necessary.  

    Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL)

    Located 2.5 hours from Montgomery with a 1-hour time difference. World's largest airline hub with over 1,000 flights a day to 225 domestic and international destinations. There is no mass transit from Montgomery to Atlanta, so a rental car would be necessary.

  • Transportation

    Unfortunately, Montgomery does not have frequent, reliable public transportation.

    While the downtown area is walkable, use of either ride share services or a rental car will likely be necessary.

    Both Uber and Lyft are available in Montgomery. However, during late hours, drivers may be limited and wait times can vary from 5-15 minutes.

    Free parking is available at the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts for Saturday's wedding ceremony and reception.
