Airport-Humphrey Terminal (Hiawatha Line station)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Airport - Humphrey Terminal light rail station is on the Hiawatha Line in the Twin Cities region of U.S. state of Minnesota. This is the thirteenth stop southbound.
This is a center-platform station and is typically accessed via a partially-covered walkway from the Humphrey terminal of the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Service began at this station when the second phase of the Hiawatha Line opened on December 4, 2004.
The Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport serves about 34 million passengers annually and is a hub for Northwest Airlines, Mesaba Airlines, Pinnacle Airlines, and Sun Country Airlines. The Humphrey Terminal is used for scheduled service by Sun Country Airlines, AirTran Airways, Midwest Airlines and Icelandair[1], along with numerous charter airlines serving the Twin Cities, and with only ten gates, is significantly smaller than the main Lindbergh terminal.
The southern portal to the tunnel under the airport is located just to the north of this station. Service between this station and the Lindbergh Terminal is free to passengers and operates 24-hours a day. The Hiawatha Line is the main mechanism for travelers to transfer between terminals.
The station has closed for a year starting on September 9, 2006 while a new parking garage is built. [1]
