Samsung Mobile has installed new phone and laptop charging stations in terminals at LaGuardia Airport (LGA) and Orlando International Airport (MCO). Samsung Mobile Charging Stations have four outlets per station, allowing several travelers to re-charge their electronic devices at the same time. The charging stations are designed to re-charge personal electronics designed for U.S. voltage (i.e., 120 volts). The charging stations are also equipped with a small shelf to hold travelers’ mobile phones and other electronic equipment.
“The Samsung Mobile Charging Stations are an easy way to reduce some of the stress that can come with traveling for business travelers and vacationers alike,” said Bill Ogle, Chief Marketing Officer of Samsung Mobile. “The charging stations are easy to find and simple to use. We expect them to be as big a hit with travelers passing through these major cities as they have been in JFK, LAX and DFW airports.”
Samsung has installed charging stations at some of the USA’s largest airports, including 54 stations at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and 51 stations at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), along with eight Samsung Mobile Travel Centers at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
“At Orlando International Airport we continue to look for ways to meet the diverse needs of our passengers. The complimentary charging stations are an expected customer service amenity for today’s travelers with personal electronics,” said Renee Spann, Director of Concessions, for the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority.
Con Edison is providing the electricity for the charging stations at LaGuardia, and the Orlando Utilities Commission will provide electricity to the charging stations at Orlando International Airport.
