Fly

Gerald R. Ford International Airport

Gerald R. Ford International Airport, the state's second busiest, has direct air service to many cities throughout the country — including Atlanta, Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Las Vegas, Memphis, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, New York - LaGuardia & Newark, Orlando, Tampa and Washington D.C.

Rail

For those coming from Chicago, another option is Amtrak. In a few hours, you can travel from downtown Chicago to downtown Grand Rapids — and let someone else do the driving!
