Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE)

I haven’t been to Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport in many years. Was nervous to fly, it’s been 25 plus years, once I got there and boarded my flight my nerves calmed down. I’m a little more comfortable flight now that I’ve did it again. It was a pleasure to fly out of my home airport.

A perfect airport for first time flyers. It is a small to medium sized airport with a variety of domestic and international flights. There aren't as many direct flights as larger airports.

The airport itself is super low-key and chill. It is not overwhelming and it is very easy to find everything you need from check in, baggage check, TSA, food, toiletries, and lounge seating.

The staff here is very kind and helpful. The TSA lines were small and the staff are very patient and kind while maintaining high professionalism.

The bathrooms are clean and the floors and surrounding areas are well kept.

Highly recommend the Saver Parking. It is very affordable and you can reserve online. Once you scan your QR code at the gate, an attendant greets you and tells you what lane to park in and to leave your hazards on for a shuttle to pick you up.

When I went the airport was not busy so a shuttle came within 2 minutes and was very courteous and helpful. It was a few minute ride to the drop off lane. The shuttle runs 24/7 and is a great affordable option.

Highly recommend checking in online 24 hours before to avoid the lines and kiosks.

Everything is ADA accessible and the food variety is great for many dietary needs.

It's a decent airport. Easy access to get in and out. The parking structure is in great shape and on the way out, the credit card readers all work. There are enought restaurants and shoppes along the several concourses. The bathrooms are clean. Getting through TSA can be hit/miss, but that's pretty much true anywhere you go now days.

One of few, if any, midwest airports to offer a recombination area. Most airports like O'Hare only discombobulate you after TSA.

Decent food options.

This airport has the Industry standard horseshoe about the terminal. I have not been inside. This is my first go around dropping off a friend and the signage is good to navigate from private vehicle.

I like flying out of Milwaukee Mitchell International airport. It's easy to navigate through, and it still has a small town feeling. It is always clean and organized. I would highly recommend this airport.

Sadly, I came due to the passing of my father. I loved the meditation area, me and my husband and I also stopped by the museum in the airport, which was nice, as well as the bookstore. I just forgot to take pictures. To be fair, a lot was on my mind. I will be arriving again more often, hopefully, for better occasions.

Great airport for being easy and less stressful than most airports I’ve been to. We came around Christmas time so they had decorated it really cool. I saw Santa flying, huge presents, and a bunch of other really cool art.
Looks like the employees care and actually like working there. The baggage pick up was close and convenient. I appreciated the relaxed feeling throughout the entire place. I recommend this airport to anyone who wants less stress than most airports across the world.

As you can tell from the pictures I was at General Mitchell fairly early in the morning. I've been there later in the day when it's busier but it's usually not that bad. Pretty laid back airport with a good layout.

After a wonderful vacation we returned to find our car dead in the parking ramp and only a little battery left on our phones. I called the parking ramp number and got a voicemail. Out of hope of getting help my pocket buzzed and a wonderful lady asked if she missed our call. She sent a wonderful guy with a 20ft jumper cables. Got us back up and running and all offered as a free service! MKE airport assistance 10/10. And yes we left a light on in the car.

This smaller airport had a USO! It's not huge, but it gets the job done. Everything is well labeled, and they have wonderful vendors. There is plenty of seating throughout the airport with plug-in spots everywhere.

TSA rocks! Awesome! Superb! I was through in less a minute. Remember to treat these and all fine people of service. Otherwise, I’ll come give you a spanking. 😜🥰

Nice airport. Easy in and easy out parking ramps.

Wait area is nice. Have snacks, shops, and restaurants.

Clean and inviting. Not too busy at late hours.

Very efficient and smooth. The TSA staff is very friendly and the check was quick inspite of having a lot of passengers. Took a early morning flight still had couple of shops open. There is a washroom every 3-4mins of walking.

Great view of home as we take off from MKE! Vacation Mode: Activated

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.

Clean, quick progression through TSA & a Starbucks right there when you're done with TSA. (Toward concourse C for SW at least.) SCORE!

Flying out of Milwaukee is a breeze! No lines, quiet atmosphere, local restaurants, a used bookstore, decent Wi-Fi and excellent service. It is your friendly neighborhood airport.

Nice airport! A bit confusing to walk past the security line in order to leave, but guessing the airport was built pre 9/11 and had to make changes on the fly. The main area looks nice and has a lot of options. Easy access to shuttles!

Biggest airport used book store in the world (possibly). Miller store? Processed wood apartments renting for $13,000 a month.
