Your Complete Guide to Flying to Bangor, Maine

Bangor is northern Maine’s largest city, a community of 32,000 on the Penobscot River that served as the ‘Lumber Capital of the World’ during the 19th century, when it shipped more lumber than any other port on Earth. The city holds a special place in American popular culture as the longtime home of Stephen King, who set many of his most celebrated horror novels in a thinly veiled Bangor — making the city a pilgrimage destination for fans of his work.

Bangor’s greatest value to visitors lies in its position as a gateway to some of Maine’s finest wilderness — Acadia National Park is 60 miles south, Mount Katahdin and Baxter State Park (the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail) are 85 miles northwest, and the Moosehead Lake region offers world-class fishing, kayaking, and moose-watching just 80 miles north. Book cheap flight deals to Bangor (BGR) and access the heart of Maine’s spectacular outdoor heritage.

60 miles south of Bangor, Acadia encompasses much of Mount Desert Island with stunning ocean and mountain scenery, the iconic Cadillac Mountain sunrise (first in the continental US), and the charming village of Bar Harbor.
