Portland International Jetport (PWM) – the easiest choice, about 1 hour’s drive to our recommended hotels and shuttle pick-up points. Car-rental desks on-site.
Boston Logan (BOS) – widest flight options, roughly 3 hours’ drive to Norway, ME.
Augusta (AUG) or Bangor (BGR) – smaller airports (regional flights only); 1¼–2¼ hrs by car.
Manchester–Boston (MHT) – ~2 hrs 20 min by car, sometimes cheaper than Logan.
Rental Car — easiest & most flexible
– Available on-site at every airport listed (PWM, BOS, MHT, AUG, BGR).
– From Portland Jetport (PWM) you’ll be on I-95 N → Route 26; total drive to Oxford/Norway area is about 45 – 65 minutes.
– From Boston Logan (BOS) plan on I-95 N straight to Maine (≈ 3 hours)
– Gas stations are plentiful along the route; parking is free at both recommended hotels and at the Norway Municipal Lot.
Rideshare (Uber / Lyft)
– Works reliably only within the Portland metro area.
– A Portland-to-Oxford ride is typically $90–$120 before surge pricing and may be hard to find late at night.
– Very limited availability once you reach Oxford/Norway—don’t count on catching one after the reception.
No Direct Public Transit Beyond Portland
– There is currently no bus or train from Portland to Oxford/Norway.
– Taxis outside Portland are scarce (the local Norway cab usually covers short in-town trips only).
Bottom line: If you’re flying into Portland—or any airport other than Boston Logan and plan to head straight north—booking a rental car is the simplest, most dependable choice.
