YOUR DAY, AT A GLANCE

A little planning. A great day out.

◷ 4–6 hours✈ Check current airspace↗ Ground transportation required

Museum daily March–December 9 am–5 pm Central; January–February closed Tuesdays. Choose Wild Eggs before its 1:30 pm weekday/2:30 pm weekend closing, or Stingray Grill before 4 pm.

Suggested time on the ground includes a planning allowance for transfers. Driving times, bookings and availability are not live. Use current aviation sources for your flight.

  1. Arrive and collect your ground ride

    Coordinate parking with Co-Mar and confirm the complete airport–museum–restaurant–airport route.

  2. Explore Corvette history

    Allow roughly two hours at the museum. This outing does not depend on a separate assembly-plant tour.

  3. Choose the easy lunch or early brunch

    Stingray Grill keeps lunch at the museum. Wild Eggs requires an earlier meal and another transfer.

  4. Keep downtown optional

    Visit Fountain Square only if ground transport and daylight leave a comfortable margin, then return as arranged.
