Montgomery, Ala. – Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM) is excited to launch its newest community-focused initiative: the “Stop Double Tripping” campaign, a six-week promotion designed to educate and engage local travelers on the convenience of flying from their hometown airport instead of driving hours to larger hubs.
The campaign encourages passengers to rethink the time, cost, and stress involved in “double tripping”—a term coined to describe the unnecessary back-and-forth travel to distant airports like Atlanta or Birmingham for flights that could easily begin right here at MGM.
“Double Tripping may seem like a money-saver on the surface, but once you add up the fuel, parking fees, and time lost, it’s rarely worth it,” said Brittney Jones-Dabney, Marketing and Communications Manager at MGM. “Flying local means less stress, less travel time, and more support for our regional economy.”
Double Tripping Game: A Fun Way to Win Big
As part of the campaign, MGM is rolling out a fun and interactive Double Tripping Game where passengers can participate for a chance to win the Ultimate Prize at the end of the 6-week promotion.
Here’s how it works:
- Passengers can pick up a game board at the Information Desk inside the terminal.
- Each week, a new flight badge will be revealed on MGM’s social media channels and local Lamar billboards.
- Travelers must visit the Information Desk to collect their weekly badge and place it on their board.
- Participants must register their game board to be eligible for the prize drawing.
- Completed boards must be submitted by July 11, 2025.
“This campaign is about more than just winning a prize,” added Jones-Dabney. “It’s about reminding travelers that MGM offers real value, convenience, and connectivity without the hassle of a long drive.”
Follow MGM on Facebook, Instagram, and X to catch each week’s badge reveal and learn more about how to play. For official rules and registration, visit Double Tripping – Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM).
