Commercial airline service into the state of Delaware is limited, but areas of the state are reasonably close to major international airports in either Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, or the District of Columbia. In 2013, Frontier Airlines offered commercial flights to New Castle County Airport including direct flights from several US Cities including Chicago-Midway, Orlando, Tampa, Houston, and Denver.
Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) is 20 miles or about a half hour to the northeast of downtown Wilmington and serves as the main commercial aviation gateway for most visitors to Delaware.
Baltimore-Washington International (BWI), is less than 90 minutes away, and has many national and international flights.
Salisbury-Ocean City Wicomico Regional Airport (SBY) serves many visitors to southern Delaware's beaches and is located about an hour south and west of Rehoboth Beach, DE.
Delaware has many excellent restaurants and a surprising number of brewpubs for a small state, including Dogfish Head in Rehoboth Beach and Iron Hill (in Newark and along the Riverfront in Wilmington).
As the location of the University of Delaware, Newark is the home of a number of bars and restaurants popular with college students and locals. One such restaurant is Klondike Kate's (on Main Street). Ask for a tour of the jail cells in the basement, dating from the late 1700s. The Deer Park (also on Main Street) is a long standing Newark institution with a rich history. Although the current building dates from 1847, there has been a tavern on the site since colonial times. Edgar Allan Poe once stayed at the St. Patrick's Inn, which formerly stood on the same site. Legend has it that he put a curse on the building and the city after falling in the mud outside the hotel. Due to the site's association with Poe, the symbol of the Deer Park is a raven, and there is a wooden raven on display in the main dining room.
In the city of Wilmington, Trolley Square, about one mile from downtown along Delaware Avenue, is widely popular with locals in their 20s-30s. Among the bars in Trolley Square, The Logan House is arguably the most popular drinking location. Just outside of the city on Route 52 in Greenville is Cromwell's, which has quality pub style food and a comfortable ambience. For those staying in Downtown Wilmington there are several excellent bars and restaurants in the downtown area including The Chelsea Tavern, Ernest & Scott Taproom and Mikimoto's. On the West Side of Wilmington is the Little Italy district including 'Restaurant Row' - the numerous restaurants found on Lincoln and Union Streets. This includes several authentic style Italian Restaurants like Mrs. Robino's, Mona Lisa's Euro Bistro and Luigi Vitrone’s Pastabilities Restaurant along with other popular places like Walter's Steakhouse, Union Grille, Dead President's Pub and Restaurant and Blue Parrot.
