UPS doesn't park at Cargo City. They have their own hub on the south side of the airport. Certain hours of the day, there's a Septa bus that goes to the terminal, but I'm not sure how often it runs. I believe it's the 108. Check Septa.org for the best info on that. Otherwise, a cab or Uber is the other option.

If an Uber is the only way, so be it, but wanted to see if there was a better/faster/easier/cheaper way.
Thanks in advance for ANY info!

Cant use Uber from UPS parking to terminal because of their airport limitations but Lyft will work. Use either for term to UPS parking. Bout $12.

Are you saying PHL had changed to this policy?
