According to the recent announcement made by the company, Samsung Telecommunications America has decided to install 22 mobile phone charging stations at the St. Paul International Airport, Minneapolis. Notably, out of the total number of 22 stations, 18 are located inside Lindbergh Terminal, and the other four are located inside the Humphrey Terminal.

Chief Marketing Officer of Samsung Mobile, Bill Ogle said, "Holiday travel can be stressful, especially when your battery runs out before you can call or email your loved ones. We hope the Samsung Mobile Charging Stations will make traveling more enjoyable for everyone this holiday weekend."

Interestingly, there will be four outlets per station enabling multiple travelers to re-charge their electronic devices simultaneously without any fee. The stations are can help re-charge personal electronic devices that are designed for U.S. voltage (120 volts). Also, there are shelves to hold the devices.

Jeff Hamiel, the Executive Director of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, added, "The new charging stations will help meet a growing number of travelers needs. As we have opened new restaurants and renovated food courts, we have integrated power outlets into the seating-area design. The new Samsung Mobile Charging Stations extend that service into gate areas at MSP, making it easier for travelers to recharge laptops, cell phones and other electronic devices there as well."

Samsung Mobile has also established charging stations at several other U.S. airports, including 54 outlets at New York's JFK, 51 at Los Angeles International Airport, 18 at the Orlando Airport and 12 stations at LaGuardia, besides eight Samsung Mobile Travel Centers at the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
