This information is correct as of June 2016

Airlines that fly from London to Minneapolis

Delta Air Lines fly direct to Minneapolis from Heathrow. There are currently no other airlines (or London airports) offering flights on this route.

Terminal Information – Departing

This is only a guideline. Always check your boarding pass for up-to-date terminal information.

Delta Air Lines flights usually depart from terminal 4. You can enjoy a duty free discount when you fly out of Europe, and at terminal 4 you can really make the most of it. There are plenty of shops to choose from including high-end fashion and beauty shops like Burberry, Cath Kidston and Hugo Boss. With shop and collect, you can pick up your purchases when you fly back from Minneapolis. Hungry travellers will be spoiled for choice. The terminal has lots of international options like Comptoir Libonaise, Carluccios and the Caviar House & Prunier Seafood Bar. As for VIP lounges, terminal 4 has a Plaza Premium Lounge and a SkyTeam Lounge.

Terminal Information – Arriving

Delta Air Lines usually land at terminal 1, the Lindbergh terminal. This is the airport's main terminal and is served by the city's light rail system. The Blue (Hiawatha) Line runs from terminal 1 to downtown. City buses also call at terminal 1. If you prefer private transportation you can hop in a taxi outside the terminal. Another option is to pre-book a space on a private shuttle. Car hire is a popular option, as the car is king in America. We definitely recommend it if you want to do a lot of exploring during your trip to Minneapolis.

Practical Information

You need a valid passport to fly to the USA from London. You don't need a visa for visits of up to 90 days due to the Visa Waiver Program (VWP). Some people aren't eligible for entry under VWP: for example those with a criminal record, those who are planning to work in the USA, and certain dual nationals. If in doubt, speak to your nearest US consulate.

We recommend arriving at Heathrow around three hours before scheduled departure.
