Attending a Board meeting

Commission board and committee meetings are held on the secure side of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport's Terminal 1. Depending on demand, it generally takes less than four minutes to obtain a security pass to gain access to the board chambers, but remember to give yourself time to park and be screened prior to the meeting. Follow these instructions to attend:

  • Park in Daily Parking at Terminal 1. Please pull a ticket and bring it with you to have it validated at the meeting to avoid parking fees.
  • Present a government-issued photo ID (driver's license) to the personnel at the Information Booth on Level T. They will prepare a security pass for you and direct you to the Departures Level.
  • Use the North Security Checkpoint to pass through security. You will be asked to show your ID and security pass at that time.
  • Once through security, proceed to your left. Go through the airport mall and look for the signs for the Airport Conference Center above the entrance to Concourse F. 

The board meetings take place at the MSP Airport Conference Center on the Mezzanine Level above the Delta Air Lines Sky Club.

Use the stairs or elevator to go up one level.
