Known for convenience and customer service, Tucson International Airport (TUS) has welcomed a new amenity that will add to the customer experience for travelers flying out of TUS. OOROO, an auto care company with multiple locations and mobile service in Southern Arizona, is now available for passengers choosing to park in the TUS Economy Covered parking lot. OOROO provides complete automotive repair service for most makes and models of vehicles.
“It’s not at every airport that you can park your vehicle in a covered parking space at a great price and have your oil changed while you are traveling,” Tucson Airport Authority (TAA) President and CEO Danette Bewley said. “We welcome the opportunity to add OOROO to our growing list of customer amenities offered at TUS. We strive to provide the best experience from curb to gate, and that includes parking options and conveniences, such as reservations and now limited auto care.”
OOROO’s operating space is in the Economy Covered Lot, which is located on E. Corona Road, east of South Tucson Boulevard. There, customers with scheduled appointments can leave their vehicles with OOROO staff to be serviced. Customers can make OOROO appointments at their airport website here: OOROO at the Airport.
“OOROO at the Airport is an extension of our mission to deliver “the highest level of expertise, safety, care, and convenience” ––wherever is most convenient to our customer,” OOROO founder and CEO Jeff Artzi said. “Our mobile service vans, which are fully equipped “shops on wheels,” can provide most maintenance and repair services on site at the airport while customers travel for business or pleasure. Mobile customers enjoy everything OOROO is known for, from honest and transparent pricing to exceptional and friendly customer service.”
The TAA provides free shuttle service connecting the economy parking lots to the main terminal, where OOROO customers with travel plans can conveniently continue their journey. Passengers may also reserve a parking spot through an online reservation system, good for all parking lots at TUS, by visiting www.flytucson.com/transportation/parking.

OOROO Auto
OOROO Auto is not a typical auto care company—from its unique name to its culture-first, technology-forward approach that’s rooted in honesty, trust and transparency. The company provides complete automotive repair service for most makes and models of vehicles, opening its first shop in Oro Valley, Arizona in May 2014 to enthusiastic response from the community. The company now also has stores in Green Valley, Vail, Queen Creek, and San Tan Valley. OOROO’s mobile service fits into customers’ busy lifestyles by providing various auto repair and maintenance services at their home or work. In addition to achieving a spot on the 2022 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America, the multi-award-winning auto repair and maintenance service provider has been the recipient of numerous awards, including two Tucson Metro Chamber Copper Cactus Awards (for Best Employer and Innovation), Better Business Bureau Ethics Awards, Arizona Daily Star Reader’s Choice Award, Best Auto Shop in Green Valley, and Best of the Northwest 7 years in a row.
Fairbanks International Airport Baggage Transport Conveyor Enhanced With Mod Drive™ System
Airports face a host of unique industry challenges, such as meeting efficiency regulations and seeking out the best maintenance practices to reduce costs and keep operations flowing. In today’s current economic climate, any potential cost savings can go a long way.
In 2019, Alaska’s Fairbanks International Airport (FAI) sought to modernize its equipment and operations. They were dissatisfied with the performance of the gearmotors on their baggage transport conveyors and began searching for new suppliers. Regal approached FAI with a solution that could improve equipment performance and simplify maintenance, with the added benefit of energy cost savings: the Hub City® MOD Drive™ system.
