Question about Knoxville public transportation

[SpeedyVOL]

My wife is a flight attendant for AA and is flying into Tyson McGee on Friday. We live in Alabama and I’ll probably fly into from Huntsville and meet her at the airport. Is there public transportation to get from TYS to Downtown? We may plan to go to Friday nights baseball game, but we won’t have a vehicle. I guess we could Uber, but that would probably be kinda expensive. Thanks in advance.

I searched KAT bus routes and they do not offer service to/from the airport. Sorry. Uber or Taxi. I wish you only the best of luck getting to the game safely and Go Vols

It's been a few years but cab fare was around $30.

Uber or Lyft is your best option. Should be right at $30 one-way from airport to LNS depending on traffic/surge pricing.

Definitely no public transportation from the airport to downtown but it's only seven miles or so, I would think an Uber or Lyft ride wouldn't be too expensive. Enjoy your stay in K-town!

Budget has rental cars for as low as $50 not including taxes for Friday to Saturday. Uber will probably cost you $30 each way..
