Philadelphia’s Geographic Position & Regional Connectivity

Philadelphia International Airport sits 7 miles southwest of Center City Philadelphia, positioned between the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers. For New York-area travelers, PHL often provides convenient access to regional destinations, legal venues, and corporate meetings throughout southeastern Pennsylvania.

Why New York Travelers Use Philadelphia Airport

Regional Business Hub: Philadelphia hosts major corporate headquarters (Comcast, Urban Outfitters, Aramark), prestigious law firms (Dechert, Duane Morris, Pepper Hamilton), and financial institutions requiring regular New York business travel.

Amtrak Corridor: Many New York professionals combine air travel to PHL with ground transportation to Center City destinations, creating efficient travel for multi-city business trips along the Northeast Corridor.

Lower Airfares: PHL sometimes offers competitive pricing compared to NYC airports for certain destinations, making it attractive for cost-conscious corporate travel programs.
