When it comes to airport parking, cost and convenience drive decision making. So, where can you find the right lot and the best parking deal at General Mitchell International Airport (MKE)? We’ve broken down the benefits of choosing an off-site provider versus traditional airport parking.

Affordability

Privately run, off-site facilities are often more affordable than traditional airport lots. Located just minutes away from the terminal, Fast Park prides itself on making customers’ parking experience easy and relaxing.

From car-to-airport terminal service and complimentary newspapers and bottled water to friendly, professional staff and luggage assistance, Fast Park packs in the amenities for an everyday low rate of $8.01. It’s one of the closest parking options for those looking for short-term or long-term parking near MKE.

Terminal parking can be a great choice if you are parking hourly but can get expensive for multiday and long-term stays. According to the airport’s official parking guide, rates run as high as $24 per day.

Effortless experience

We’ve all been there: You drive into a crowded parking garage, drive up and down row after row only to forget your parking level and section upon your return. This is a common occurrence with traditional airport parking, especially during peak travel periods.

When you arrive to Fast Park’s MKE facility, a cashier directs you to a parking spot and a shuttle will pick you up directly from your car. A driver assists with your luggage and provides you with a card noting your exact location. Your return home is just as easy. Shuttle service is continuous to and from the airport, so your wait time is usually never more than five minutes.

And, secure your parking – even on the busiest travel days of the year when airport parking lots notoriously fill up – by using a facility with a reservations capability.

Big perks for loyalty

Loyalty is the name of the game when it comes to frequent travel. If you fly several times per year, or are just interested in saving money, search for parking options that offer rewards programs. Fast Park’s Relax for Rewards program allows members to earn points toward free parking, make reservations for future stays and manage travel expenses. You can earn a free day of parking after just eight full, paid days.
