Grab your suitcase, walk out of arrivals at Kalamazoo, MI Airport (AZO-Kalamazoo-Battle Creek Intl.), and pick up your rental car. Which one you slide into depends on where you’re going. If you’ll be spending a good deal of time driving in downtown Kalamazoo, around 4 miles from the terminal, choose something zippy. A compact car that’s easy to maneuver will be ideal for navigating those winding city streets. But with a wealth of things to see, like the glorious lakes of the surrounding region, you may want to make a few pit stops. A bigger vehicle, like a full-size car or an SUV, will make longer road trips a pleasure.
