MILWAUKEE (January 27, 2021) – Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE) now offers “Trunk to Terminal” parking service just in time for winter flights to warm weather destinations.
Passengers who choose MKE’s SuperSaver Parking will now be picked up right at their car, eliminating the need to walk to a shelter with their luggage. Once on the shuttle, MKE Parking Ambassadors will give the passengers a card identifying their vehicle’s location. Upon return to MKE, passengers are dropped off directly at their vehicle.
“MKE strives to improve the customer experience. Our new ‘Trunk to Terminal’ service offers a personal touch for our customers that choose our most affordable parking option,” Airport Director Brian Dranzik.
SuperSaver Parking is priced at just $8 per day. It is MKE’s closest remote lot available. Those who desire covered parking can choose MKE’s Daily Parking, which is conveniently attached to the terminal via a heated skywalk.
All of MKE’s parking facilities feature contactless payment through the MKE SmartPark smartphone app, available in the Apple App Store and the Google Play store. SmartPark members can also earn loyalty points and redeem them for free parking.

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.
