You could get a cab from the airport directly to PNC. Or, there is an express limo service at the ground transportation desk (probably about $15-17 to downtown) and then walk across the bridge to PNC (or take a cab).

There is a 28X Airport Flyer. You catch it on the bottom level of Pgh. International. The fare is $2.00 or $2.50 each way. It takes you right across from the Pittsburgh Hilton and it's a pretty easy walk (20 or 30 minutes) from there to PNC. You can also take the Flyer back late at night as it discontinues running to the airport like 1 or 2 a.m. You could get a cab from the Hilton to PNC, it would be a very cheap cab fare.

The 28X is your best bet from PIT to PNC. You will want to get off at the Market Street stop (second stop once you are in downtown). From there it will be a 10 minute walk down 6'th Street and across the Clemente Bridge (formerly the 6th Street Bridge). As for the weather, I just checked KDKA's forecast....bring your umbrella as they are predicting thunderstorms with a high temp of 81 degrees! GO BUCS!!!

There is an Eat n' Park and the 28X has a bus stop across the road from it. The 28X drives briefly through Robinson Towne Center and the stop I am talking about is the last one before going to Pgh (there are 3 in all). You could go there before or after the game as this bus comes every 20 minutes during the weekday.
