Minneapolis - St. Paul International Airport
AirTran Changing Terminals
AirTran Airways will relocate its operations at MSP to the Humphrey Terminal beginning May 18. The airline has operated from the Lindbergh Terminal since May 2001 and will now occupy gates H9 and H10 at the Humprey Terminal. From MSP, AirTran flies to Atlanta, Chicago and Orlando.
AirTran joins scheduled carriers Midwest and Sun Country Airlines as well as charter carrier Champion Airlines in providing service from the Humphrey Terminal. The new Humphrey Terminal offered eight aircraft gates when it opened in 2001 and has since been expanded to 10. Like the Lindbergh Terminal, the Humphrey Terminal has direct metro light rail service, covered parking a skyway's walk from the terminal, auto rental facilities, and in-terminal dining and retail opportunities.
One of America's largest low-fare airlines, AirTran Airways recently added fuel-efficient Boeing 737-700 aircraft to create the nation's youngest all-Boeing fleet. The airline is the first to install XM Satellite Radio on a commercial aircraft and the only airline with Business Class and XM Satellite Radio on every flight. The airline's hub is at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where it is the second largest carrier.

Thanks for the information. This is good to know for September.

Great! I really prefer the HHH terminal over the Main.

Hope those of you who fly Airtran over the next few months let us know how it goes. We'll be taking our first flight with them this coming December.

Best wishes -

I will be flying into MSP next Friday on AirTran. I fly out with Northwest. I will report back.

The HHH terminal is so easy to navigate... though at times it seems dead because there are only 10 gates. Sun Contry flies out of there, so I have not flown out of the Lindbergh terminal in many years... I do fly out of Lindbergh in two weeks on Delta.
