    This is by far the best and most well-stocked airport I've been to in America - and I've been to plenty. There's a coffee bean brewery, food trucks, driving range - not your average American airport.

    To find the secret observation deck, enter Concourse D and walk past the Quiznos and Northern Lights Grill. Take the stairs up on your left. The deck is usually deserted. Enjoy!

    Concourse E is best for napping/sleeping. Ride the elevator across from "Meadows" up to the third floor, and enter the 'quiet' traveler area. Don't bother with the airline clubs as they are small.

    New water dispenser by gate F10 is marvelous! No need to buy water - just bring your own bottle. And this (filter) water tastes wonderful (worlds better than the MSP drinking fountains)!

    Good airport with tons of connections especially if you’re flying Delta. I prefer to travel through here over Chicago when connecting in the Midwest as flights are usually always on schedule.

    Delta's Concourse G may be the best airport terminal in America. Wait for your flight with a complimentary iPad to order drinks from.

    The bathroom doors swing outwards! No more climbing over the toilet and you bags to open and close the door! Ladies! This is amazing! Thank you to whoever (probably a woman) designed it!

    Probably the best airport in the US. Can't speak for Terminal 2, but Terminal 1 (most airlines incl. Delta/United/American) is fantastic. Great food options, clean, easy to navigate!

    One of my favorite airports in the U.S. Grab a Caribou coffee and visit the Minnesota store. Very tech savvy with iPads in most of the restaurants. So many stores...Uffda!...don't miss your flight!

    While this airport is big it's easy to navigate. Signs are everywhere and the staff are helpful. There's plenty to eat and lots of shops. There's also plenty of artwork along walkways.

    Terminal G seems to have taken inspiration from Las Vegas, New Orleans, and Savannah in allowing open containers throughout the terminal. Grab a beer and wander around

    Try Caribou Coffee. Pretty legit. Also the bathrooms are really clean and a nice selection of stores. You MUST get a moose shirt before leaving and try not to laugh looking at them. :)

    This place is great if I'm flying out of Terminal 2. Security is quick and less people compared to Terminal 1. And yes, it makes sense because 1 has more flights, international.

    If your traveling with pets, don't leave the building to walk them. Go to Costomer service and they will give you a key to a private pet area so you don't have to go back through security. Wonderful!

    A really nice, clean and quiet airport. Lots of food choices and it's really easy to get from the airport to downtown Minneapolis- just hop on the blue line tram! Costs $3 and will make it in 25mins.

    Lots of power outlets, both wall power and usb! Restaurants are a bit expensive, but I haven't had any bad food. It's a very spread out airport, so don't feel shy flagging down an electric cart.

    People - if you're going thru TSA Pre you don't need to take shoes off, remove belts, take out laptops etc. it's amazing how many travelers don't know this and how few TSA agents say anything.

    Come for the planes, stay for the retail! MSP does an amazing job of integrating retail and dining into the footpaths in a complementary way. It is just a fun place to walk around. And shop. And eat.

    Surdyk's Flights was such a pleasant surprise tucked away in this Midwest airport! Amazing selection of wine, cheese and salumi. Will be the only place I eat at MSP on all future trips.

    Own this airport like a boss text 444-555 on your way to the airport to get real time alerts about parking. Don't let a few inches of snow fool you, your flight will still leave on time.

    Minneapolis does an excellent job of keeping the airport open even in the most averse conditions. Airport is huge. Their is a back connector at the end of the G gate.
