Did you know?
Sixty percent (60%) of the nation's population is within one-hour flight time from Cincinnati. We're conveniently located, so plan to attend! There's a lot to do in Cincinnati, so you may want to stay a few extra days. For instance, you may want to visit the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, Newport Aquarium, Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Gardens, or Kings Island amusement park; while you are there, check out the Great Wolf Lodge; also close by is the Beach Waterpark. If you are feeling lucky, Grand Victoria, Belterra or The Hollywood Casinos are just up the road in Indiana. We also have lots of museums and cultural activities in Cincinnati.
