A full-service travel center has opened at the Capital Region
International Airport, located in the main terminal. The Fly Lansing
Concierge Travel Center will allow all travel agencies and independent
travel agents the opportunity to offer a variety of travel and concierge
services currently not offered at the airport, including the ability to
book airline tickets, car rentals, hotel rooms, cruise vacations and
tours.
Liz Andrews, a mid-Michigan travel consultant, is opening Fly Lansing
Concierge Travel Center. Local agents will staff the center during
regular 9-5 business hours and by appointment. Future concierge
services to be offered include: foreign currency exchange, dry cleaning,
limo services to and from the airport, airport valet parking and the
sale of luggage and travel accessories.
“This new travel center is a great benefit to our flying customers as
well as travel agencies,” said Nicole Noll-Williams, Director of
Regional Market Development for the Capital Region Airport Authority.
“The travel center offers the perfect location within the airport for
agencies and independent agents to fulfill the many travel needs of our
Mid-Michigan passengers.”
"This is a fantastic opportunity for us to grow the Apple Vacations
product line in the Mid-Michigan area," said Lynda Kroll, Apple
Vacations Agency Sales Manager. “With the continued support of local
travel agents the Travel Center will provide the opportunity to promote
our international services to all the customers flying from the Lansing
Airport.” Apple Vacations is the world’s largest vacation company to
Mexico and the first company to offer international flights from the
Lansing airport since the U.S. Customs Inspection Station opened in late
May, 2009.
The Fly Lansing Concierge Travel Center has adequate desks, phones, and
computers to accommodate working travel agents, along with a WI-FI
lounge, and a variety of printed travel information available for
passengers. Travel agencies, independent agents and travelers can
