ASHWAUBENON (WLUK) — With holiday travel ramping up, Green Bay’s airport reported its busiest day in more than 14 years.
On Monday, more than 2,300 passengers were screened at the main terminal of GRB.
Green Bay Austin Straubel airport director, Marty Piette says it was the airport’s busiest day since March 7, 2008.
“And what’s impressive is that the wait times to get through security were under 25 minutes at Concourse A and less than 15 minutes at Concourse B. Our TSA and airport crews did a great job keeping things moving,” Piette said.
The airport credits back-to-back home Packers games and the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday for the boom.
“It’s exciting to see the increasing activity,” added Piette. “Of course, it’s also a good heads up for those who are traveling. Be sure to get to the airport 90 minutes ahead of your flight to ensure you don’t have to rush.”
