A visit to the Steel City of Pittsburgh is never complete without a stroll along its many rivers which provide a picturesque view of bridges, inclined railways and pre-revolutionary buildings.

US Airways, assisted by its subsidiaries, operates more than 50 non-stop flights to the East Coast and Midwest regions. Anyone looking for a discount ticket to Pittsburgh is advised to book from such websites as Smartfares.com, which provides complete access to negotiated fares from Pittsburgh's three mainline contenders, namely US Airways, Delta and Southwest Airlines.



The airport also operates daily scheduled international flights to Europe, the Caribbean and Mexico. Travelers from the East Coast can always find good deals on flights to New York City, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia and Atlanta, which have more than 500 weekly flights, combined. Specialist air consolidators and online booking engines can provide international travelers huge discounts on their roundtrip tickets to Pittsburgh.
