Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from MKE to Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport (MKC) last minute?
Booking your trip from MKE to Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport (MKC) at the last minute could save you a pretty penny if you stumble on an awesome deal. However, tickets usually don’t come down in price as the date of departure nears. If you choose to wait, flights could also be sold out or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you’d prefer to play it safe, book well ahead of your departure date. It’s worth noting that some of the best deals can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn’t released its fares yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.
