Milwaukee, WI (MKE)

Please note: Due to high passenger traffic in the morning at the Milwaukee Airport, check-in and security lines may be longer than normal. Passengers with morning flights should allow extra time to complete these procedures.

Milwaukee is a vacation destination of its own and gateway to Wisconsin’s North Woods. Fine art and international dining, classic entertainment and cultural festivals draw people from Chicago, Boston, Phoenix, Kansas City, Minneapolis and even L.A. Summerfest, the world’s largest music festival, offers 10 summer days of unbeatable music at the city’s expansive lakefront festival park. Milwaukee is home to the U.S. Bank Championship on the PGA Tour and is a short drive to some of the most challenging golf courses in the country. Visitors fly Midwest Airlines to Milwaukee from coast to coast.

Amtrak’s Hiawatha offers seven daily round-trips (six on Sunday) between Chicago and Milwaukee, all stopping at Amtrak’s new station at Mitchell International Airport. Free shuttle service is available between the station (located next to the parking area) and the main terminal. The airport station offers convenient, easy access to Chicago-area travelers who want quality travel options without the inconveniences associated with travel out of O’Hare.
