Yes, CVG's Main Terminal is open 24 hours a day landside. Passengers with early morning flights or long overnight layovers may wait inside. If you are already past security before the checkpoints close around 9:20 pm, you can remain in Concourses A or B; otherwise, you must wait in the landside public area until TSA security reopens at approximately 3:30 am.
The Main Terminal connects to both island concourses via a secure underground transportation tunnel. You can take the complimentary automated people mover train (2 minutes to Concourse A and 4 minutes to Concourse B) or use the continuous moving walkways and pedestrian walkway, which take 3 to 6 minutes.
The TANK Route 2X Airporter bus provides direct service between the airport and downtown Cincinnati/Covington. It runs daily from 4:30 am to 1:00 am, departing from Ground Transport East on the Baggage Claim level, with a 30-minute travel time and a USD 1.50 fare.
Rental car counters are conveniently housed in the on-site Rental Car Center located at Ground Transport West within the terminal structure. Passengers simply walk downstairs from the Baggage Claim level without needing any off-site shuttle bus.
