Indianapolis International Airport

Airport travel guide

Indianapolis International Airport is the largest airport in the state of Indiana and is its primary point of entry for visitors from outside the state. You can easily reach any place in the state from it (and many parts of the Great Lakes region). 

While Indianapolis doesn't make many people's list of top tourist destinations, it has a surprising amount for visitors to enjoy. This includes many museums, theaters, art galleries, a zoo, and parks. Of course, the Indianapolis 500 is perhaps the biggest draw for visitors. It takes place in May. If you’re not in town in May, you can still learn more about the famous races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum.

Location

Indianapolis Airport is about 7 miles (11 km) southwest from Indianapolis city center. Motorway I-70 and Illinois Street are the main roads connecting the airport to the city.

You’ll also find ATMs, a currency exchange in the baggage claim area, baby changing facilities, a spa, a barber shop, a meditation room, and a free CPR training course available to any interested traveler. The facilities at Indianapolis Airport are well equipped for travelers with reduced mobility; special assistance can also be requested, but make sure to contact your airline in advance if you’d like this service.

Nearest gas station

There is a Shell station at the entrance of the airport which is very convenient when returning a rental car. Of course, its prices are higher than those of other stations in the area. It would be smart to fill up somewhere else and then use it to top off at right before returning your car.
