The next few weeks are anticipated to be a flurry of travel as spring break approaches for both the Madison Metropolitan School District (March 23-27) and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (March 28-April 5).
As those rush times approach, airports across the nation have reported hours-long delays due to inclement weather, and longer lines at security checkpoints due to Transportation Security Administration workers not being paid because of the partial government shutdown.
How will that affect travel in and out of the Dane County Regional Airport (MSN)? Michael Riechers, director of marketing and communications for the airport, said “we haven’t seen any noticeable change in our security throughput.”
