    Regional airports can be tough in that flights from there are usually so much pricier than from…read morebigger airports (like Philly or Pittsburgh). However, when you think about the cost of gas, parking, and all the other stuff that goes into a trip, State College will almost always win on flights. It's easy to uber there and the lots almost always have space. TSA is extremely fast. You also basically don't have to be there until like an hour before your flight, which is a huge time saver. My one wish is that they had some kind of coffee counter post-security (although the place pre-security it great)! Flights get delayed especially with the air traffic control situation in the US, and it would be nice to have something other than vending for food.

    Amazing regional airport close to State College and Penn State! Very convenient to use. Cheap…read moreparking - only $6 per day in the economy lot! Friendly staff and up to 16 daily departures on United and American Airlines to Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia and NEW SERVICE TO CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, beginning October 5, 2026! Easy access to worldwide destinations in one stop. I would highly recommend flying out of SCE instead of driving hours to larger airports - it is well worth paying a bit extra for the convenience of SCE! There are many great flight options to consider when flying out of SCE. Even though prices may be higher than MDT or PIT, it is well worth paying a bit more and you must consider that parking is much cheaper at SCE and that you are saving on gas and tolls.

    Ahh, greyhound. I'd estimate maybe 1/3 trips has something odd, unexpected, or just plain…read moreridiculous happen (the bus gets lost! the headlights don't work and you are stuck in some podunk town waiting for a replacement!) I spent many a weekend going back and forth to visit friends and family on these buses. One winter break there was a volunteer group giving away snacks to all travelers. Once I also met a group of prisoners on their way home to Philly. The odds of something ridiculous happening are proportional to how much time you spend. A two hour trip between here and Harrisburg generally is OK, will be filled with other students (not the usual crazies that tend to ride Greyhound) and will generally be on time. Occasionally they oversell tickets so you will be forced to stand in the aisle the whole time or just have to go the next day (so if you are going home for the weekend, you are effectively screwed). The employees here were not rude, the station itself a little bare and a boring place to wait. Still it sure beats walking!!

    Greyhound Bus Lines provided terrible service through the State College bus terminal. We were…read moresupposed to depart at 11 am and we did not end up leaving until 12:15 pm. We were not communicated with about why we were delayed. When the bus driver arrived he was extremely rude to all the passengers. We did not end up arriving at our destination until an hour and a half past the expected time. We never received an apology or an explanation for anything. Very disappointed. Will not being using Greyhound again.

    Folks here in State College are nice enough. I have friends that even prefer United. God bless…read more'em. I pray for them both (United and the friend). Based on a recent experience I'm reminded to write a review based on a recent experience with United mainline (these folks here in state college are actually Air Wisconsin flying as United) in order to fly out of State College with these folks. This review is based on starting my story at their web site, united.com which you should see to the left. My experience recently was "as good as it gets." It can't get more better. It was "Excellent!" It took me only 3 hours, 5 international phone calls (to the Philippines), 9 emails, two forms of ID (hope they don't lose them!), a sample signature, and about 12 "sorry"s to book a ticket using mileage. I felt bad for the agents who had to repeatedly apologize for dopey processes and systems (Dave Carroll on his website about how United breaks guitars quoted folks from United: "if you think it's bad flying with us, try working here"). They required two forms of ID and 6 emails to validate who I was (1.5 hours), and then to get my account set up once they trusted it was me (0.5 hours), and then a half hour to figure our their web site for mileage, and then to get the web site to take additional $$ payment (0.5 hours). I also learned: while the screen on the agent in the Philippines is safe, the phone to pass ID information can be monitored *by their folks* and that is "not safe for you". [they don't trust their security] An agent thought I got all my miles from one flight (or she could only see one flight). And that government issued photo ID they needed, that, in fact, no, they mean government issued photo ID with birth date. That they cannot call my office to validate me. [thus, they do not trust their own staff to make discretionary decisions] That they cannot issue tickets to me (the name on the account) because "the process of validating people to get on airlines is not secure". I hope you can be my 14 or more friends that Dave Carroll (https://www.sonsofmaxwell.com/) talks about. So, *this* is why I did not remember my last flight on United (which if I could recall, then they could have used that info to validate who I was) because I no longer fly on United if I have a choice. The day I basically dropped United for similar frustration, a call center -- but this time in the US for a different airline with a different attitude -- helped me out deeply, simply, and with deep context that I will remember for a long, long time. Made platinum there one year....
