Talk:Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport

message: I am noticing the Airport diagram is out of date.   There is an updated PDF Version at http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0911/00264AD.PDF  Note a big difference in the lower left corner.  That is that MSP is using a ASDE-X system and requires aircraft to taxi with transponders on.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.101.49 (talk) 06:35, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

message: "Due to noise concerns from South Minneapolis residents, when using this new runway, aircraft will always land to the north and takeoff to the south."
I don't believe this statement is true, although I have heard it before.  It was used to ease concerns about aircraft noise, but there certainly are instances where planes will have to take off and land the other way.  Andercee 16:46, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

message: One user removed Manila from the list that Northwest Airlines fly to and said to list NONSTOP flights only. NWA has direct, non plane-changing service to MNL [via NRT]. Should Manila remain in the list or should it be removed? Bucs2004
I got in a discussion about this once regarding Qantas at JFK, which flies to LAX and onward to Sydney.  The apparent rule is that if it's a long-haul international flight where the tag-on leg rarely changes (and Northwest's MSP-NRT flight has been continuing to Manila for a long time), then it stays.  What shouldn't happen is for the domestic continuing flights that change frequently (i.e. for a few months a year or so ago, American had a same-flight-number PHX-ORD-MSP service, and in that case it doesn't get listed).
So to answer your question, in this case it is supposed to stay there.  The same holds true for those feeder flights, like the one that is MSP-Mason City-Fort Dodge, and others like that.  Those stay as well.  But for instance Frontier should not be listed as flying to San Francisco from here, even though it does have a flight that is MSP-Denver-San Francisco.71.223.246.57 (talk) 03:00, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I've noticed that at a few US airports, some airlines domestic and international destinations are seperated. This is not set up in the standard form as set forth in the ProjectWiki Airport guide. Plus, when it's being done, it's inconsistent even within the airport page - i.e. DL and UA destinations being seperated at LAX, but AA and NW remaining intact. So, stop doing it. Thanks.

message: Hello, I have noticed that a lot of content on the MSP airport page violates WP:NOTTRAVEL, specifically the Spotters, Hotels, Airport Lounges, and Ground Transportation sections. In general, the page has a "travel-guide" tone not used on other airport pages. These sections need to be significantly edited to remove content similar to a travel guide. I would hate to remove all this information (which frequent editors of this page worked hard to write), so please make these changes or this content needs to be removed. Thanks!

message: Having the top 20 international destinations out of an airport like MSP is important on Wikipedia as MSP has many seasonal destinations that are not represented by only showing data from the top 10. It is very hard to calculate those top 20 destinations as you must maneuver though many data tables presented by the DOT, if someone is willing to gather this data accurately, then there is no reason why it can't be presented on this page. The top 10 at MSP does not provide a complete understanding of the international destinations that passengers fly to throughout the year. It seems as most of the people that read this page want to keep it at 20 as this has been reverted multiple times both directions. Also, nowhere in WP:AIRPORTS does is state that regarding international statistics that there is a limit. It says that this information is OK to use. Raine004 (talk) 16:58, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Per WP:NOTEVERYTHING, we do not need to list every single piece of information. Just because someone researches the information does not make it encyclopedic. Information is to be summarized, the top 10 hits on the major points and that is what matters. It is irrelevant as to whether someone can see whether 20,000 or so passengers flew to Costa Rica during the year, if they want to see that, they can look it up. We do not list more than 10 domestic destinations, why should international be different? Arnoboro (talk) 18:46, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: In the source for top domestic destinations there is not the possibility to get more than the top 10, but the data for international shows all of the information for every international route flown from an airport. This is why we only show 10 with domestic routes, because the data available in the source stops at 10. The language used in WP:NOTEVERYTHING says that articles should have not every detail but a good summary of information. Including the top 20 for international destinations from an airport is not going into every last detail, it is an article about an airport and that information is a summary of the amount of people that fly from MSP to international destinations.

replies: text: Even though listing more than 10 isn't really summarizing the way the above policies envisioned, since I don't really feel like fighting with you, I have changed it back. Do not go any further though. Arnoboro (talk) 02:03, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

I understand from previous edits that a travel guide "tone" is undesirable, so I've tried my best to add in the sentence to fit well within the section.

Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport Long Term Comprehensive Plan Update (Report)) isn't linked, so can't be checked, but on the face of it this statement seems incorrect. Atlanta's domestic and international terminals appear to be on equally separate roadway sysetems (one off I75, the other off I85). Unless I am missing something, I would suggest this statement should either be removed, or changed to "one of the only major airports", although that then begs verification through a reliable source itself. --Nick Moss (talk) 10:45, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
