Via Air

- Duration: Approximately 8 hours (including layovers)
- Distance: 850 miles (approx. 1,370 km)
- Costs: €350 (ticket prices vary based on booking time and class)

Pro Tip: Check multiple travel dates; flying mid-week may lead to lower fares and less crowded flights.
For this journey, I recommend flying from Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) to Wichita Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport (ICT) with a layover in a major hub such as Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW) or Chicago O'Hare (ORD). From Wichita, you can rent a car to reach Greensburg, which is about an hour's drive (approximately 70 miles).
Via Road
- Companies: Rental companies like Enterprise, Hertz
- Duration: Approximately 12 hours
- Distance: 830 miles (approx. 1,335 km)
- Costs: €150 (car rental for a day; fuel costs may vary)
- Roads/Routes: I-40 W and US-54 W
Pro Tip: Consider breaking the drive into two segments to enjoy scenic stops along the way, such as in Memphis or Little Rock.
If you prefer driving, renting a car provides flexibility to stop at sights along the way. Start on I-40 W from Raleigh, and then take US-54 W directly to Greensburg. Be mindful of highway rest stops and gas stations along the route.
