Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) has been named a 2016 TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice Favorite for U.S. Airports in the large airports (3rd), shopping (3rd), and dining (2nd) categories.

The inaugural award highlights the five most popular domestic airports in the categories of: large airports, medium airports, shopping and dining. Award winners were determined based on the results from a survey of more than 114,000 TripAdvisor community members.

Only one other airport besides MSP was named in three of the four categories.

“MSP Airport has received many accolades over the years, but ranking 2nd or 3rd in all categories for which we were eligible is particularly satisfying,” said Brian Ryks, CEO of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, owner and operator of MSP Airport. “We always strive to provide the best experience for our customers. This award shows we’re doing just that.”

“A traveler’s experience at an airport is a critical component of the trip – it sets the mood for the beginning or ending,” said Bryan Saltzburg, senior vice president and general manager for TripAdvisor’s global flights business. “From major travel hubs to smaller airports, these Travelers’ Choice award-winners earn high marks from the TripAdvisor community.”
