A native of Madison and a frequent DCRA traveler, even Feldman was surprised to learn about some of the benefits and amenities the airport offers. “Though I’ve been a big fan of the Dane County Regional Airport for a long time, I was excited to learn things like: there are chair and foot massages available; and, I can get a Usinger’s sausage at the Wurst German Bar across from Gate 5,” said Feldman. “Those two things are reasons enough to fly through DCRA,” continued Feldman. “Kidding aside, I’m proud to help my fellow citizens learn more about this gem.”
