If you want to find out why Portland is known as the "City of Roses," plan a trip for the summer months of July and August, when flowers are in full bloom, the chance of rain is low, and the city hosts a number of outdoor events and festivals. This also means that you should expect the city to be packed with tourists and locals, which also brings higher prices on accommodation. Autumn and spring are both slightly more budget-friendly, so if you're not put off by the occasional rain they still make for solid choices. The cheapest time to book a trip to Portland would be winter, the period where most of the outdoor gathering points like parks and gardens shorten their opening hours. If you're a fan of winter games, though, the nearby Mount Hood and its slopes are there for you to enjoy.

Portland International Airport (PDX) is located 9 miles (14.5 km) northeast of downtown and is conveniently connected to the city center via the MAX Red Line light rail system, with its airport station being only 150 ft away from the baggage claim area, and extending to Downtown Portland and Beaverton. For late-night travel, the 272-PDX Night Bus is available. The travel time for both the bus and light rail train journeys between Downtown Portland and Portland Airport is approximately 30-40 minutes. For car rentals, head towards level 1 of the short-term parking garage, then it will take you roughly 16 minutes to reach Portland. Taxis can be found on Island 3, the one closest to the short-term parking garage, with many companies offering transportation services. If you intend to use an app-based rideshare service, head to Island 2 outside the luggage claim area where you'll be picked up. In both cases, the trip to the city takes around 15 minutes. Alternatively, your hotel may provide courtesy shuttles, but there are also scheduled vans making trips toward Downtown Portland, which would take roughly 45 minutes.
