Getting There

Thirteen airlines offer more than 230 daily flights into Milwaukee’s General Mitchell International Airport. Rental cars can be picked up and dropped off at the terminal, which is open twenty-four hours. The airport is just ten minutes from downtown Milwaukee, an hour from Kohler (via Interstate 43) and ninety minutes from Madison (via Interstate 94). Despite a series of recent highway-construction projects in and around the city, even rush-hour traffic in greater Milwaukee tends to be manageable. Another way to get to Wisconsin is to fly into Chicago, which is ninety minutes south of Milwaukee by car.
