Traverse City is a relatively small city in Michigan that isn’t even 10 square miles big. But it’s part of the Traverse City micropolitan area, which is one of the largest micropolitan areas in the whole country. It stretches out over more than 4,500 square miles. This helps explain why the Cherry Capital Airport (TVC) is so accessible. It offers non-stop flights to almost 20 cities throughout the U.S. through airlines like American Airlines, Delta, and United Airlines, and it also has flights from across the country landing at it every day. If you’re planning to visit any portion of the Traverse City micropolitan area, think about booking a flight to TVC and going from there.

If you would like to make your way to Cherry Capital Airport, Chicago is one of the best places to do it from. You can take non-stop flights from Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) to TVC and get there in just over 1 hour. Otherwise, you will need to plan to make at least one stop between most other airports and TVC. It’ll just be a matter of trying to track down one-stop flights that don’t have layovers that are too long. Flying from LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to TVC, for example, will call for you to make a stop at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport (DTW) on the way, but you might still be able to get to TVC within about 5 hours. You can get to TVC at around the same time by taking a one-stop flight from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) with a layover at DTW.

Unless you’ll be staying right in Traverse City after flying from your city to Cherry Capital Airport, (TVC) you’ll likely need to drive from TVC to wherever you’ll be visiting in the Traverse City micropolitan area. To make this possible, you may want to explore the idea of renting a car when you arrive in Traverse City. Fortunately, several car rental agencies, including Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and National all have pickup locations right at TVC for your convenience.
