Light rail service to the airport is available. Trains stop at both the Lindbergh and Humphrey Terminals and connect travelers to 15 other destinations, including downtown Minneapolis to the north and the Mall of America to the south. The light rail stations are ADA compliant.

Frequency

Light rail trains run every 7 or 8 minutes during peak hours and every 10 to 15 minutes at other times of the day. From MSP, trains can take you to the Mall of America in about 11 minutes and to the Warehouse District in downtown Minneapolis in about 25 minutes. If you have a layover and plan to take the Light Rail away from the airport, please allow time to travel and return.

Fares

Light rail fares for adults are $2.25 during rush hours (Monday through Friday, 6 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 6:30 p.m.) and $1.75 at other times. Tickets are sold at vending kiosks at the rail station.

The Humphrey Terminal light rail station is located on the north side of the Orange parking ramp. From the Humphrey Terminal, take the skyway from Level 2 across to the parking ramp. Follow the overhead signs through both parking ramps. Take the escalators or elevators down one level to the station platform.

Inter-Terminal Travel

While light rail transit is typically used for inter-terminal travel, complimentary shuttle service between the terminal buildings is available, as an alternative to light rail, for handicapped passengers and those with special needs (e.g. physical limitations, elderly, parent with young children and baggage).
