Best way to get from Philly International Airport to King of Prussia?

I'll be in King of Prussia for Thanksgiving visiting relatives. My daughter and son in law are flying in from Chicago. They arrive at 6 PM on Wednesday night. I assume it will be a traffic nightmare at that time. Besides driving the 25 miles from King of Prussia to the airport to get them, is there an alternative means of transportation to get them from the airport to King of Prussia? Thanks.

Expensive but probably the best option: http://www.philadelphia-limo-services.com/king-of-prussia-airport-transportation/

They could take the train to Paoli or Norristown, depending on which is more convenient for you to get to.

Actually, by the time they get in,traffic might not be that bad. There won't be a "normal" rush hour that day.

Tropiano runs shuttles from the airport to King of Prussia. They drop off at any of the many hotels in K of P. Only about $29 one way per person.

Airport Rail Line (formerly called R1) to Center City (Market East Station or 30th Street Station or Suburban Station -- choose any one), then take the Norristown Rail to near King of Prussia.

for an overall map.
The Septa "Plan My Trip" Option shows this will take about 90 minutes.
