Samsung offers mobile charging service at Minneapolis Airport

Samsung has announced the installation of 22 mobile phone charging towers at the Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport. Eighteen of the stations are located inside the Lindbergh Terminal, and the others are strategically placed in the Humphrey Terminal.

“Holiday travel can be stressful, especially when you battery runs out before you can call or email your loved ones,” said Bill Ogle, chief marketing officer for Samsung Mobile. “We hope the Samsung Mobile Charging Stations will make traveling more enjoyable for everyone this holiday weekend.”

The charging stations feature four outlets on each station tower, making it possible for as many travelers to re-charge their electronic devices simultaneously. The service is free of charge, and built for re-charging devices at U.S. voltage (120 volts).

“The new charging stations will help meet a growing number of travelers needs. As we have opened new restaurants and renovated food courts, we have integrated power outlets into the seating-area design,” noted Jeff Maniel, executive director of the Metropolitan Airports Commission. “The new Samsung Mobile Charging Stations extend that service into gate areas at MSP, making it easier for travelers to recharge laptops, cell phones and other electronic devices there as well.”

Samsung Mobile had previously installed charging station towers at several other U.S. airports - including 54 at JFK, 51 at Los Angeles International Airport, 12 at LaGuardia and 18 stations at the Orlando Airport. In addition, there are eight Samsung Mobile Travel Centers providing service to customers at the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport.
