Passenger Pick up and Drop Off

Do you need to pick up or drop off someone at MSP? The process is fairly simple if you know your options and plan ahead.

Curbside Drop Off/Pick up
You may drop off and pick up travelers at the curb in front of MSP's terminals. If you choose this option, please keep in mind the following rules:
Federal security regulations prohibit leaving your vehicle unattended, even for a short time. Unattended vehicles will be ticketed and towed.
You may park at the curb in front of a terminal only long enough to drop off or pick up a waiting traveler. When picking up, the traveler must be waiting outside the terminal before you park; parking your vehicle at the curb while you wait for arriving travelers to emerge from the terminal is prohibited.
Parking/Cell Phone Lot
Avoid the hassle of circling airport roadways, waiting for travelers to emerge from the terminal. Parking in the airport's covered, short-term ramps costs only $5 for the first hour, $3 with e-park. You can walk from parking to the terminal without ever going outside. A free 39-space cell phone parking lot is also available and located approximately half way between the Lindbergh and Humphrey Terminals on Post Road.

Other Waiting Options
Other public locations exist close to the airport where people can park while waiting for a passenger to be ready for pick up. A popular spot is Mall of America. Why not plan on completing a few errands while waiting for a call from your passenger?

Meeting Arriving Travelers Inside a Terminal
Due to federal security regulations, meeting travelers at their arrival gate is generally no longer possible. Instead, consider meeting them at Baggage Claim, which in both terminals is open to the public. In the Lindbergh Terminal, the Starbucks Coffee shop, the Flowers on the Fly flower shop or the Firefighter Memorial statue on Baggage Claim Level make ideal designated meeting sites. Other out-of-the way meeting spots include:
The Mezzanine overlooking the Lindbergh Terminal's Ticketing Lobby, near skyways to the Green or Gold parking ramps.
At a particular terminal exit door (each terminal has exit doors marked 1 through 6). If you choose this option at the Lindbergh Terminal, make sure you specify Ticketing Level or Baggage Claim Level.
Near the Travel Mart on the First Level of the Humphrey Terminal.
