We would all love a Magic Carpet. A wave of the hand… a snap of the fingers… and ‘POOF’… we’re there! Wherever we want to be, we’re transported in the blink of an eye to the destination of our dreams!
Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. But that doesn’t stop us from wanting—even needing—to travel. To get away to places we need to go in our everyday lives and jobs. Or—even better—to visit the destinations we dream about. The places our mind takes us to when we let it wander, visualizing the fun we’ll have with friends or family when we finally give ourselves permission to turn that dream into reality.
Each of us has the power to do that. And when we do, it doesn’t have to be as complicated as we fear, because the World is at our doorstep, just down the road at SBN- South Bend International Airport.
The folks at SBN put it this way:
Happy Starts Here!
It’s a fact that you can be almost anywhere in America with just one intermediate stop from SBN. Often, you can be in one of the World’s great cities—or on one of its most beautiful beaches—with just one stop via the six connecting hub airports reached from SBN.
Why would you not go? And why would you not choose to leave from SBN—from ‘HOME’?
Why not leave from a convenient terminal just a few minutes, certainly less than an hour, from your home? Why would you consider driving two or three hours to a big, overcrowded metropolitan airport in Chicago or Detroit? Why would you struggle to find a pricey place to park your car? Why would you stand in long security lines? Why would you burn up a full tank of gas getting there and back? Why would you even consider spending a night in a Chicago hotel to catch an early morning flight?
Why???
SBN–South Bend International Airport lets you avoid it all. Skip the hassle. Miss the mess. Fly SBN to anywhere in the World. Happy Starts Here! Really.
Instead of fighting traffic on the Tri-State Tollway, take a leisurely drive from your home to SBN. Park close to the terminal. Easily roll your luggage inside and check in with almost no waiting. Breeze through the Security Line, especially if you’ve registered for your TSA Pre-Check. Enjoy a coffee and a breakfast sandwich at the South Bend Chocolate Café, while utilizing the free Wi-Fi to update your planner or continue reading your book. And then, it’s time to board at your nearby gate— there’s only one concourse at SBN so it’ll be easy to find!
Why would you even consider the complicated, challenging and usually more expensive alternative of driving to a larger airport? Yes, we said MORE expensive! When you actually price it out, including the cost of driving and parking—before you even consider your own valuable time—the run to Midway or O’Hare to catch a flight is a false economy. It usually costs you LESS to fly from SBN.

Because ‘Happy Starts Here’ at SBN!
