This airport is the perfect size. Great, clean amenities and very nice staff. The restaurants are plentiful and bars are roomy. Long lines always tend to move quick.

Arrived on a Friday evening departed on a Sunday afternoon. Not overly busy either time. Security was quick and efficient, TSA was pleasant. No shuttles or trains required to get from drop off to gate. Uber / Lyft clearly marked for pickup unlike other airports. Nice mosaic decorations on the ground for decorations. Wish United had a club available here. Lots of power outlets by the seating area. Overall I think this is a great airport.

Great mid size airport. Easy to navigate.
Clean. Power stations can be found near all the gates. Great stores and prices are actually good. A large bottle of water was $3.99. Unheard-of at an airport. Great food and drink options. Nice souvenirs options specially if you are a cheese head.Thank you for choosing to fly MKE!
The Summerfest store in the main terminal is open... in C Concourse Starbucks is open from 4am to 11am... Chilis II is open at 1030 as well as Aunty Anne's and Pizzaria Piccola D concourse Starbucks from 5 to 3 and sometime grab n go at Nonna's. There are some of the Parides shops open on both concourses
I recently used off-airport parking called Fast Park.... Half the price of the airport lot and very easy & efficient shuttle service to/from the terminal.
MKE arrivals. There is a parking lot for waiting, if you wish to use. Then upon arrival outside baggage claim, your party could call or text and you can meet them within 2 minutes.
There is. It's right next to the departures and arrivals drop-offs/pick-up. No more than 100 yds away. They charge $2 per hour if you're there longer than 30 minutes I believe (don't quote me on 30 minutes but that's close).
Depending on the time that they get in they have to pick up their luggage or their things they got to get to the door there's no waiting in front cuz you can get a ticket there is a parking lot where you can pay and look around inside but the best place to park before going into Airport so you don't have to pay I would park at a restaurant or hotel on Howell and if they can have them call you when they land

Today is the first time I have to pick someone up at the airport. Are there two separate lines for pickup? I am always picked up by a shuttle, so I have to cross an area to shuttle pickup. Is the area I cross the line for individual pickup?
Beverly Dulmes | Dec 23, 2020
Billy Marks | Dec 24, 2020
Yes there is 2 separate lines ones for ticket counter and check ins and ones for baggage you need to go to baggage claims . I work at the airport ok

Hi John! The Mitchell Gallery of Flight is in the process of moving into a new location. It's still in the concession mall, but it's now at the south end across from the Miller Brewhouse. They are completing work on the new space, but it should reopen within the next couple of weeks.
Was their an airplane having difficulty Friday night around 9:05.
It was so loud I jumped of my bed shaking. I thought it was going to crash into our building in Shorewood.

I am inquiring about documents needed to fly from the Milwaukee airport in Wisconsin? According to airport info., a real ID is not required to Oct. 2020. Is this correct?
Belinda Ferguson | Dec 24, 2019

Yes. You can use a non REAL ID for a domestic flight until next year.
Can I get an airport shuttleto tke me from Elkhorn WI to the airport and what is the cost of the service?
Marianne Cannestra | Dec 24, 2019
Colin Hill | Dec 25, 2019
There are lots of services that offer shuttle service from Elkhorn to MKE airport but your best bet would be to do a Google search as the airport itself doesn't offer one.
Absolutely easy. Drop off first, then exit and re-enter the airport area, look for signs leading to rental car return. Milwaukee is an easy airport to navigate.
Yes, of course. There is a cell phone waiting area to park. When you get a call from your party, go to the outside of baggage claim for a pick up. You can't park there, just pick up or drop off.
Under 18 do not require ID to fly domesticly unless they are checking in alone to fly. Otherwise a parent checks them in. TSA only requires a boarding pass to get through security and board.
I just moved up here and I'm planning a trip out of Illinois and would like to what would my family and I need to use as ID. I have 2 younger kids 13 and 16 ..we still have our FL ID'S and my kids birth certificates.. is that enough?
Carla Toleno | Dec 24, 2019
Theodore Mall | Dec 25, 2019
ID's or driver's license issued by federal government or any state are OK for now. For kids without state ID, carry additional documents such as birth certificates, just in case there is a problem.

We are flying to Vegas soon. Does anyone know if the three bowling ball roller totes are allowed as a checked in bag? They would be filled with three bowling balls, but under the 50 pound weight limit. Thank you!

Yes. Affix your ID to the totes.
Where can I get an escort pass to take my children down to the gate??
The Amtrak station is at the far west end of the airport proper. Airport has transportation to and from the station to the terminal. Once inside the station you are able to contact the shuttle by picking up the phone.
I am 13 and I am flying to Boston with an adult that is not my parent, do I have to show an id?
Evelyn Reinwand | Dec 24, 2019
Colin Hill | Dec 25, 2019
If you are under 18 you do not need a federal ID to fly, however you very likely need a letter from your parent saying that it's ok for you to fly unaccompanied and it needs to have your trip itinerary on it. Check with your airline for their requirements.
Can ANY dogs be brought into the airport if they're on a leash? (I'm not asking about flying with a dog... just curious if I can bring a dog in to pick somebody up.)
Ryan Jensen | Dec 24, 2019
Clyde Pabst | Dec 25, 2019
No only service dogs. With the proper id on the dog.
How do I get seating for 5 people. I want my family to be seated together.
Lisa Beeman | Dec 24, 2018

Call the airline directly or go to the airline's online reservations early enough. Barring that ask your fellow passengers as they are getting seated.

Niko Coronado | Dec 24, 2018

Kimberly Libasci | Dec 25, 2018

Katelynn Andreo | Dec 24, 2018
Johnathan Harold s. | Dec 25, 2018
You may have to pay a fee but there should be one available if you call the general office number first.
At Mitchell you go DOWN one floor to get your boarding pass if you have not printed it out. Then you stand on the main floor in line and go through security. The main floor is the one you would walk out to go to rental cars Etc. Unless it is between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. there will be plenty of people to ask. And even at those times there are people to ask just not as many. It's a super friendly Airport!
Depends on where you're coming from 94 North between Illinois and Wisconsin has Construction and will delay your Drive-In. Also since it's Friday night I would make sure you're there no later than 5:30. It may also depend on if your flight is crowded
The parking garage is good for the first half hour then I think it's $2 for every half hour after that I just know that I was there for a little over an hour and it was $4
Concourse D has a Best Buy Express which may be your best bet on a Sim card. Wittman regional airport is near Oshkosh, otherwise you are looking at nearly 100 miles of ground transport at about 1.5 hours of travel time.
Could you advise of the best price taxi number? We need to go to Oshkosh, first time traveling to USA and a bit worrying about how to get there.
El G | Dec 24, 2018
Larry Janicek | Dec 25, 2018
Rental cars is always cost effective and an easy drive with GPS. Otherwise uber likey better priced than a taxi, taxi all have similar rates, you will likey need a car in Oshkosh too, rental car for that distance would be best for costs
How to you get the airport to stop broadcasting offensive messages from CNN? It is a racially devisive network.
K L | Dec 24, 2018
Clyde Pabst | Dec 25, 2018
Change the channel with the universal tv remote app on your phone
Does a party bus business have to have a set limit on insurance to even enter the airport? Was told you need a policy of 1 million or higher... this true?
Galen S | Dec 24, 2018
Larry Janicek | Dec 25, 2018
Tough question for Google maps, calling the airport directly would be better
Hmmm that currency they might not have at Milwaukee, more likely at the gateway airport you change planes at
How much is parking if I leave my car
Wanda Griffin | Dec 24, 2018
James Huycke | Dec 25, 2018
There is hourly, cell, and long term and short term parking in an adjacent covered structure, and a nearby surface lot. There are more distant surface lots with shuttles at half the price of the structures, and there are also private lots. First 30 minutes is free, then rates start at $2/hr in short term. Max daily is $24.
Where can I leave me car until I return home from my flight
Thanks guys, I just dropped her at ticketing walked her in to get in line while I parked in a wheelchair spot very close.I didn't want her to walk. She could not have made it from the wheelchair spot I parked in to the ticketing area.
Liquid makeup, such as eyeliner, nail polish and foundation must comply with the 3-1-1 rule (3.4oz per container in a plastic zip lock bag). Powder cosmetics are accepted with no limits.
As long as you are not parking and walking her in. They might look at it as being suspicious if you leave your truck/ stump grinder somewhere close to the entrance to walk her in the door.
I imagine it was decided by the manager who works at the airport and it most likely won't be changed because they allow people to connect to their Wi-Fi and most people have smartphones. Also I believe this is a reference to the Fox News report that was done an hour ago about CNN having a monopoly in airports. I wonder if you actually noticed it before the report.
Can I have a family member accompany me while I wait on my flight? What do I need to provide so they can? Is there a number?
Kentora Rodgers | Dec 24, 2018
K Verb | Dec 25, 2018
Call your airline. They will provide a TSA pass for a person that is required to assist the passenger. Reasons for assistance can be medical illness, disability, a minor child with a parent/guardian, etc. The airline will tell you what is allowed.
Good luck. When I tried to exchange a few coins from Canada at O'Hare a few years ago, the made a face like I was holding a pile of dog doo and said they didn't do coins.
TSA Security and the airlines (if they offer an app) allow your phone's "Boarding Pass" to be used. Make sure it says "Boarding Pass" on your phone's airline app, and not just the flight information screen.
What is the number for the Mitchell Milwaukee wisconsin airport airlines so i can buy my ticket the phone number for the airport doesnt work please help??
I think the dog has to be in a carrier and by baggage claims but once you get there arrive early enough that you can find and ask someone first and Please tell her thank you so much for her service
The airport is open 24/7 365 days a yr. I presume your answer depends on the Airline. Ask your carrier. You can presume at least 2 hours before the departure time.
I have a friend who had their flight canceled. May depend on inbound airport. I would look up the flight number with the airline as they should have the status listed.
