I am selfish about my home airport but it was recently voted as the top North American airport. Check out the Stone Arch near the entrance to the F Concourse. Try the meatloaf!
M PerkinsMarch 18, 2012There is a 1 mile walk without needing to back track. Starting at "C" Gate, walk to the stair which take through the "G" gate area, around to the mall area of the terminal and your starting point.- Alan LundbergApril 3, 2011Use checkpoint 6 all the way to your left past the Delta checkin areas. It will definitely save time. To save even more time, use the far left entrance to the checkpoint, the expert traveler lane.
Andy StricklandSeptember 17, 2018Fairly easy airport, north and south security points depending on your concourse.
Here's a tip to the gal in the orange jacket: don't be a douche to the TSA agents when they take your huge shampoo bottle. You delay people who plan ahead. Thank you.
This is a 1.4 mile marked trail inside MSP's Terminal 1. Marked by green dots on many overhead signs you can keep up with mileage you've walked. And it's easy to start at any point.
French Meadow is best for breakfast--the one place where you know you will get fresh eggs and not powdered. Also, you can have organic vodka!
Hector MartinezFebruary 15, 2020Make sure you return your rental car to the correct terminal, although they will accept the return the way back to the terminal is longer
You can't do anything fun, like eating or getting a newspaper, until you get past the security checkpoint.
The airport IS huge - go to French Meadow Bakery for grub AND a martini. But get to your gate before you do anything else. It might be at the other end of the earth!
- Leave a little extra time if you're flying out of the A concourse. It's really far away from ticketing and security.
John ThomasMarch 1, 2012FREE unsecure public wi-fi above Chili's at the upstairs conference center in the main mall.
Free coupon books for most the restaurants and shops are located throughout the airport. Ask someone at an information booth where to pick one up.
Andrew StowellMay 30, 2011Nice restaurants (sit down or fast food), clean atmosphere, and friendly merchants.
Michael LoechelAugust 30, 2010One of the nicer airports around the country; they are trying to be the best. Now if only they could make security a little easier and less stressful...
Take your belt off before going through security and wear clean socks!
Order from the menu, not the steam table at Wok n Roll. Huge portions, cooked fresh, cheap. Go for the Singapore Rice Noodles
MSP AirportOctober 15, 2010Oct 18-22 is the 2nd annual Soaring Savings Sidewalk Sale- come early and save at dozens of shops at Terminal 1. Read more
Jim RayJanuary 31, 2010Forget the overpriced awfulness of TGIFridays and Chilis, hit the French Meadow bakery in the mall. Reasonable prices, great food, friendly staff.
Welcome to MSP! Take your time walking to baggage claim-luggage can be rather slow.
Almost never a wait at the north security checkpoint (right next to Houlihans)
If you're taking light rail to the airport, have already checked in, and aren't checking a bag, go up 4 stories to the concourse level to the security checkpoint there.
I am so mad at Delta taking all our airbus and sticking us with these awful MD-90s that never should have been built.- Military members can use the flight crew security checkpoint
Todd KuleszaJuly 21, 2010The French Meadows Bakery in the mall has excellent vegetarian options *and* martinis.
- Michael LoechelAugust 30, 2010Get your bottles water from one of the vending machines. It's a little cheaper than the stores.
Vitaly YaMay 25, 2013Nothing works in Concourse C at 5:30 AM, including cafes, tram to/from Terminals A/B/C. Oh, wifi does work. Somewhere between the gates.
Ryan OQuinnMarch 5, 2010If u have 1+ hr layover, Bonfire is a good sit down restaurant. Wood fire cuisine
Danielle DixsonSeptember 11, 2012You can not use the skyway check in too early, flight left at 5:30 AM and it was closed at 4:30.
