Get Here Fast
Whether you’re flying into or out of the Chicago-Milwaukee region, MKE is a cost- and time-saving O’Hare alternative that gets you where you need to go. We believe that flying smart means starting the first leg of your travel on the right foot. And that foot is either on the accelerator, or on the next train to or from MKE!
Arriving by car or motorcycle? If you’re a northern Illinois resident, chances are you’re nearly the same distance from MKE as you are from O’Hare. But here’s the great news: open highway awaits. Check out our drive time comparison chart for distance details. If you’re on two wheels, take advantage of our free and plentiful motorcycle parking on the ground level of the structure. Covered motorcycle parking is available across from the north end of the baggage claim.
Use Google Maps to get directions, or to see a real-time traffic report.
Prefer a ride? Transferring between MKE and the Chicago region is a breeze, with convenient ground transportation options like Amtrak, coach bus, taxi, shuttle and rental car services.
Drive times may vary due to traffic, weather, road construction and other conditions.
As the Wisconsin DOT works hard to improve the I-94 North-South corridor, we are working to make sure it is as easy as ever to get to and from Mitchell International Airport.
