Minneapolis Transportation Tips by Redlats

NorthWest Airlines By Plane Review

Minneapolis is the hub for NorthWest Airlines. I know the Minneapolis airport pretty well as most flights from Winnipeg to the States have a stop here. Minneapolis is one of the few airports with fastfood restaurants at fastfood prices (I presume because NWA does not serve food on their flights).

Twin Cities Interstates By Car Review

The Twin Cities are much like Winnipeg in one aspect - it is absolutely necessary to have an automobile to get around. As I mentioned previously, the metropolitain Twin Cities area is made up of many cities - which is confusing (expecially when trying to reserve a hotel room from Winnipeg). We stayed in South St. Paul. Even to eat, we had to travel 10 minutes by car.
<p>The road system is fast paced - lots of merging, etc. You absolutely need a map. Figure out where you are going before starting the car, or have an intelligent navigator (my wife was happy that our 17 year old son took on that role).
