Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport CVGKCVG
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) sits in Hebron, Kentucky, across the Ohio River from Cincinnati. For passengers, it is no longer the large Delta hub it was in the 2000s; today it works more like a medium-size regional airport with strong Delta, Allegiant and Frontier presence, plus service from the main U.S. network carriers and selected international routes in North America and Europe. Its hub identity is stronger on the cargo side, with major DHL and Amazon Air operations. The passenger terminal is straightforward: one main terminal feeds Concourses A and B after security via an underground train/walkway, so there is no terminal-change bus to plan around. Downtown Cincinnati is usually easiest by rideshare or taxi, roughly 20-25 minutes in light traffic; TANK Route 2X is the public-transit option from baggage claim if its schedule fits. For connections, CVG is compact, but international arrivals without U.S. preclearance use Concourse B customs and require the usual immigration, baggage and security steps before onward domestic travel.
