Airport contact
Allegiant Air's only Wisconsin crew base is here; also served by Delta, American, United, and Sun Country. This Fox Cities-area small hub first surpassed 1 million total annual passengers in 2024 (total here is 2x the FAA CY2024 enplanement count of 540,349, since only enplanements are officially published), fueled by regional growth and route expansion, with the terminal expansion timed ahead of Green Bay's April 2025 NFL Draft.
