Getting to Falmouth, Cape Cod, MA

The two major airports closest to Falmouth are Logan International Airport in Boston, MA (70 miles) and T.F. Green Airport in Warwick, RI (65 miles). Barnstable Airport is 22 miles from the Sea Crest Oceanfront Resort, but this is a commuter airport that has smaller planes and fewer flights. T.F. Green is preferred over Logan as it is usually less congested. Rental cars, taxis, and other car services are available at all three airports. Bonanza Bus (1-888-751-8800, www.bonanzabus.com) goes from T.F. Green airport in Warwick, RI to Falmouth for $50 round trip and from Boston's Logan Airport to Falmouth for $40 round trip.
