I have more questions, based on reading this thread:
- What is "airside shuttle"? Where does it run to/from?
- There's a reference to "tram to A/B/C" What is this about?
- Can I rule out possibilities of any concourses (international? commuters?)
- Another post mentions "moving belt hallway between mid-C to G that is not very obvious". Is it really that hard to find?
I appreciate the help. I've never been through MSP before.
There is a tram that runs alongside the beginning of Concourse A and through the entirety of Concourse C (with a stop mid-way through the concourse). Concourse B is a short walk through a tunnel/under a taxiway at the beginning of concourse A.
If you aren't flying a CRJ or SAAB, you can rule out the A, B and high-C gates for your arrival/departure. Long-haul international flights can depart from any number of gates on Concourse F & G (usually G1-6), but those gates are used by domestic flights during the day as well.
The walkway between C & G is at the end of G (entrance next to Starbucks) and right next to the Einstein Bagel/Wok & Roll/Grandfather's Pizza food court. If entering from C, you will have to take an escalator.
I've made infamous B14-F11 connections in less than 15 minutes, but the tram was waiting for me when I arrived. During most hour connections I have enough time for a 10-15 minute visit to the SkyClub for a "refresher"
