Manuevering the Philly Airport

I have a tight connection in Philly on Saturday and will need to get from terminal C to the internation terminal A West. Is there a train that takes passengers from terminal to terminal?

This PDF link should give you an answer:

www.phl.org/pdf/PHL_intl_map_lo.pdf

which, unfortunately, is "No." You'll have to walk the whole way.

In a word, no.

However, C and A West are no all that far apart and there are some moving walkways but I'm pretty sure the only way to get between the 2 is walking.

Right, and at least you do not need to go through security again! It is a bit of a walk but not as bad as from Terminal E or F to A!

I though there was some sort of courtesy shuttle running from E and F over to C...is that not the case?

We once had a connection from A to F...HORRIBLE!

However, the moving walkways do work fairly efficiently.

I know there is a shuttle that services F terminal but I don't know if the bus goes between C and A West. I looked on the PHL website and it has no shuttle info. If you've checked your luggage through, hoofing it may be the best answer or get one of the motorized carts to take you.

The shuttle between Gates C16 and F10 is clearly shown on the link I gave above.

This just isn't this far of a walk. Maybe 7 minutes tops. Our airport is very small compared to most others.

Yes, thanks..I thought I had seen the symbols for a courtesy shuttle between F and C but the post above about "F to A" made me wonder.
