Light Rail
The Light Rail Transit service is perhaps one of the, if not the, most common modes of transportation taken by visitors to the MSP. This service is incredibly convenient for a multitude of reasons, including the fact that it transports people to a total of 19 different destinations!
These destinations include ones that are both within the borders of the airport, and outside of them. And this means that you, as a passenger, can board the Light Rail to come to the airport and to leave it.
What’s even better is that the prices of tickets range from being affordably priced, to being totally free of charge. This is just one of the ways that the Light Rail remains accessible to so many people!
If you are traveling with children, or you have a disability of some sorts, you can even get a further reduction on prices! Another alternative of yours would be to take the shuttle services that are also available at the airport terminals.
