Flying into Birmingham

Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport (BHM) is the main airport that serves the city and metropolitan region of Birmingham, Alabama, and offers non-stop flights to/from many major cities across the US. Multiple rental car options are available on-site at the airport. BHM is less than 15 minutes by car to/from all of our recommended hotel options. Alternatively, many locals and tourists alike choose to fly into/out of Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), in favor a wider variety of airlines, non-stop flight options, and the chance to visit the city of Atlanta on their way to Birmingham. ATL is both a major hub for Delta Airlines and a popular US point of entry for overseas travelers. For those who prefer travel car-free, Groome Transportation offers an easy and affordable shuttle service between ATL and the city of Birmingham, starting as low as $45/each way.
