Crew is great. Required early boarding and the staff was very accommodating. Seats are narrow and cramped. Not even enough room to get out of window seat to aisle easily. I am not a large person 5’4 135lbs. Small sandwich rather than awful snacks would be appreciated since there is not a lot of connection time provided and long lines at food vendors. Since ticket costs have sky rocked adding $5 to the ticket for a sandwich would nit even be questioned

Detroit Travel Guide

Hop off your Detroit flight, grab the keys to your Model T and turn up the Motown music as you drive through The Motor City. While your flight to Detroit might be quiet, there’s no stopping the beat once you hit the streets. Detroit got its nickname, “Motor City,” after Henry Ford rolled the first car off the assembly line in Detroit. Today, Detroit is still center for automobile production but thanks to flights to Detroit, there’s more to the transportation industry than just Fort Thunderbirds and classic Mustangs.

Tourists booking Detroit flights and accommodations will find themselves in an entertainment hub like nowhere else. Many travelers leave their Detroit flight and head straight to Hitsville USA, where the Motown Sound comes to life and continues to play. But there are other attractions for visitors booking flights to Detroit. The Detroit Museum of Art, Greek Town, major casinos, The Fox Theater, and the Renaissance Center are huge with tourists. Detroit sports fans can book Detroit flights during football season and cheer on the Lions, during the summer to watch the Detroit Tigers baseball team, or find cheap flights to Detroit during hockey season and root for the Detroit Red Wings.

Getting to and around Detroit

Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) is located 26 miles west of the city. Visitors generally drive from the airport to downtown Detroit, and there are car rental agencies both on and off the airport. Taxi and bus services to the center are also available. The Ground Transportation page of the airport website has detailed information.

The best way to get around the Motor City is by car. Detroit is easy to drive through, and there are plenty of parking spots. Bring a good map, since many downtown streets are one way, and avoid driving in rush hour. The People Mover runs on an elevated track in a three-mile loop downtown. If you need a taxi, you can hail one on the street.

Tips for your stay in Detroit

  • The Henry Ford Museum contain’s Ford’s collection of commonplace items and historic buildings that document American genius. Naturally there are transportation exhibits that include automobiles, presidential limousines, and Oscar Mayer’s original 1952 Wienermobile. Some of the other displays are a Buckminster Fuller “house of the future,” silver work from Paul Revere and Tiffany, and an old-fashioned steam engine train. A full tour also covers the seven districts in historic Greenfield Village and the Ford Rouge Factory. (Factory tour tickets sell out in advance, so it’s recommended that you buy them online.)
  • Cranbrook House and Gardensis right outside of Detroit; it’s the estate of newspaper publisher George Gough Booth and Ellen Scripps and is the oldest surviving manor home in metro Detroit. The house, designed in 1908, is English Arts and Crafts style, and its furnishings and décor are handcrafted. The 40-acre garden surrounding the house has Japanese and rose gardens, woods, and walks around two lakes on the 40-acre site. The complex is adjacent to the Cranbrook School and Institute of Science. The house and gardens are open for touring May through October.
