Travel: Flights to Minneapolis

• Minneapolis/Saint Paul International Airport, (IATA: MSP) (ICAO: KMSP), . The airport is divided into the Lindbergh and Humphrey terminals with most flights arriving at the former. Savvy travelers should check to make sure they know which terminal they are arriving at/departing from.

The new light rail train is extremely convenient for those who need to get downtown from the airport. Fare is $1.50-$2 depending on the time of day. The trains are fast and clean. They also serve the Mall of America and parts of South Minneapolis. The light rail station is located at Lindbergh. There is also a station at Humphrey, but it is currently closed through late 2007 due to nearby construction. If you're arriving at Humphrey, you will need to board a shuttle bus heading to Lindbergh.

Northwest Airlines (the world's fourth-largest) maintains one of its three US hubs at MSP and is the predominant presence and is a member of the SkyTeam alliance. Northwest offers non-stop overseas service from MSP to Tokyo-Narita, Amsterdam, and London (Gatwick). Sun Country also calls MSP home, making it that much easier to find discount fares to/from the Twin Cities within the continental United States. Icelandair, the only foreign intercontinental carrier at MSP, offers seasonal service to Keflavik with Boeing 757-200s. Air Canada Jazz is the second foreign carrier offering service to Toronto.
