Forgot your charger at MKE? That’s InMotion’s whole business model.
This InMotion sits in the Main terminal at General Mitchell, past security, and leans hard into last‑minute electronics: headphones, chargers, power banks, and random travel gadgets. You’ll find all the usual brands at airport markups, with some items running roughly 40–50% higher than what you’d see online.
Figure this more as an emergency stop than a fun browse. Expect plenty of Lightning, USB‑C, and USB‑A cables on the wall, along with over‑ear and in‑ear headphones that often price in the $80–$350 range depending on brand. Travelers on Reddit call InMotion “the place you go when you forgot a charger and accept you’ll overpay.”
Staff here reportedly will price‑match InMotion’s own website if you pull it up on your phone, but they usually won’t match Amazon, Target, or Best Buy. That can shave a few dollars off a cable or as much as $20–$30 off higher‑end headphones, so it’s worth a 30‑second search before you tap your card.
Common complaints: sticker shock on name‑brand noise‑canceling headphones and even basic cables, with some flyers comparing a $30–$40 cord here to a $10 version online. Regulars often carry a backup cable and small 5,000–10,000 mAh power bank in their bag specifically so they never have to buy these items at InMotion at all.
Tip: If your phone is dying at the gate, grab the cheapest compatible cable that’s long enough, skip fancy accessories, and ask for the in‑store website price before paying.
