Purdue University is located 116 km (72 miles) away from Indianapolis airport and there are a number of ways to travel between these destinations. The first option is a direct transfer and involves taking an airport taxi or private shuttle. The public transport option involves travelling into downtown Indianapolis and the use of multiple bus routes and numerous connections leading to a hefty travel time, therefore the only alternative direct travel method is a shared shuttle service.
Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Indianapolis at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.
