Grab your suitcase, exit arrivals at Owensboro, KY Airport (OWB-Owensboro-Daviess County Regional), and pick up your rental car. Which one you hop into depends on what your travel itinerary looks like. If you’ll be mostly driving in downtown Owensboro, around 3 miles from the terminal, choose something small. A compact car that’s easy to operate will be ideal for those busy streets. But with almost endless things to see, like the beautiful rolling hills of the surrounding area, there’s a good chance you’ll rack up those miles. A larger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make longer road trips a joy.
