Forgot to mention also, that the bus I'm talking about is the same commercial bus that rides from Dover City (Water Street) to Dover AFB; first stop is at the Eagle's Rest Inn, then continues on the BX and finally to the Terminal. But as I mentioned you can get on at lodging and ride it to the Terminal for $1.00.

Happy travels!

Perhaps, I missed mentioning that the bus only rides from lodging to the Terminal during the day on weekdays; doesn't ride from the Terminal to lodging. You could take it from the Terminal to the main gate and walk from there to the Inn. To answer Phyllis' comment, I would walk the distance from lodging to the Terminal and viceversa without problems, but not when I'm carrying a large size bag and a laptop, and it's cold. Also Phyllis, I never had problems with carrying my luggage on the bus. It could be a problem if the bus is full, but my experience has been that the bus has always been almost empty.

Happy travels!

That much money...really?? Isn't that a distance of one to one and a half miles tops? I've never taken this cab ride but that seems awfully expensive for such a short ride. I'll think I'd walk it if I couldn't get the bus.

Tony we walk most of the time, but just in case, can you take your bags on the bus?

And another good thing is that the commercial bus coming from town (Dover City) stops there on week days and you can take it to the Terminal for $1.00. Usually, a cab ride from Eagles Rest Inn to the Terminal could cost you between $15 and $20, depending on the cab company.


Happy travels!
