For travelers visiting Alcoa, the most practical choice is Mcghee Tyson Airport (TYS), which serves the Knoxville area and is located conveniently within Alcoa. This airport offers the most direct access with minimal travel times, and it is the best option for those prioritizing speed and budget. The other four airports are not in Alcoa at all and serve neighboring cities. Asheville Regional Airport (AVL) serves the Asheville area in North Carolina, while Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport (CHA) serves Chattanooga, Tennessee. Tri-Cities Regional Airport (TRI) handles travelers heading to Bristol, Johnson City, or Kingsport, and Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport (GSP) serves the Upstate South Carolina region. For these four distant airports, your travel strategy should focus on renting a car or arranging a private car service well in advance, as public transit options to Alcoa are nonexistent. If you are not flying into TYS, expect a significantly longer journey that will likely require a multi-hour drive, making rental cars the most economical and flexible choice for those long-distance transfers.

The arranged room is next to the elevator, but fortunately the elevator is small. The room is quite spacious. We are on the flight in the morning 5.30, the hotel breakfast has not been opened, and there is no way to arrange a breakfast package.FromUS$81

The flight to the University of Tennessee arrived in the early morning. I didn't expect the hotel to be super close. After taking the luggage, follow the hotel logo and cross the corridor!
There is also a front desk and a bellman in the early morning, very nice; no breakfast at the time of booking, you can go to the restaurant directly, there is a buffet, you can also choose a set meal, beyond expectations!FromUS$139

Renovations were pleasant. Updated rooms with working air conditioning. Coffee, microwave, and refrigerator in the room. Darkening draperies are a plus. Breakfast consisted of scrambled eggs, pancakes, potatoes, and sausages. Without labeling, not sure if the sausage was pork or turkey, though. Also cereals, yogurts, packaged baked assortments, and several juices. Other amenities included a Coca-Cola machine with a selection of grab-and-go items for purchase.FromUS$75
