Buses to and from Portland International Airport (PDX) with Bus Routes and Times

Because of the railway system's convenience, there are few bus options at the Airport. Shuttles at Portland International Airport on the lower roadway, outside baggage claim.

You can, however, hop onto one of the buses when you arrive in downtown Portland. Please know your transportation needs before availing of shuttle services. They might cost you more than taking the inexpensive railway and public buses.

At the Airport, only accredited shuttle services and buses are allowed. Please see the details below to arrange for your ground transportation requirements if you are ever avail of the service.

From PDX, we suggest these two options: MAX Light Rail and TriMet Bus.

The trip between the Airport and downtown Portland takes about 40 minutes only.
A ticket for an adult is only $2.50, youth $1.25, and honorary citizens $1.

MAX Light Rail and TriMet Bus (from Portland International Airport to Downtown Portland, Oregon)

TriMet's MAX Light Rail station is outside the southern end of the terminal-near concourses A and B.
Its Red Line offers, at its next stop, transfer options to the Green and Blue lines, and at Pioneer Square, to its Yellow line.
Many city buses connect with MAX Light Rail, Portland Streetcar, and aerial trams.
