  • ROC Airport Overview
    Greater Rochester International Airport ROC is located four miles southwest of Rochester, New York, accessible via Interstate I-390 to Exit 18 (Brooks Av. West), or from I-90, Exit 46 (ROC) north on I-390 to Exit 18, and 12 miles south of Lake Ontario bordering on Canada. The airport is served by major airlines and regional jet services offering nonstop flights to most hub airports in the eastern United States, with connections worldwide, and to Canada.

    The passenger terminal has ticketing and boarding gates on the upper level and baggage claim and rental cars on the lower level. To improve the flow of passengers in the terminal, the airport constructed a centralized security checkpoint to replace the checkpoints at each concourse entrance. Among its services are: an information center, ATM, restaurants, bars and lounges, shops, checkpoint mailers, mail facilities, TTY & ITY phones; interfaith chapel, shoe-shine service, a conference room for 20 people with kitchenette and equipment, and the Frontier Business Hub with private work stations with data ports, telephone and free internet access. Of interest is Rochester ROC airport’s art collection which showcases regional artists. One eye-catching piece is the Brass Tree by local artist, J. Pat Bucey. It is a nine-foot tall tree made of brass and adorned with over five thousand shimmering brass leaves.

    To pick up an arriving passenger, you can either park your car in the free Cell Phone Lot located inside the Weekly Parking Lot (facing the 'on-Airport' lot across the street), by staying with your car until your party has collected luggage and called you for pick-up at the curb; or you can take advantage of the 30-minute grace period in the Short-Term Lot and meet your party inside the terminal. Other parking options:
    1. For covered long-term parking use the garage across the terminal.
