MSP RESERVE, the free security line reservation program at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP), is expanding to Terminal 1.
MSP RESERVE is a reservation service that allows travelers to book a place in the airport security line for themselves and their companions ahead of time. Terminal 1 passengers can now make reservations for a security line time for flights beginning Tuesday, Sept. 17.
MSP is one of 18 airports in North America and Europe operating the program since launching it at Terminal 2 in May 2023. MSP RESERVE at Terminal 2 logged 50,000 reservations in its first year.
“We have seen strong adoption rates and growth in the program and are excited to make it available to all MSP passengers by bringing the program to Terminal 1,” said Scott Skramstad, director of terminal and landside operations for the Metropolitan Airports Commission, which owns and operates MSP. “Reserving a place in the security line can reduce wait time and add more certainty and peace of mind at the start of a traveler’s journey.”
Passengers can book appointments online as early as one week before a flight at www.mspairport.com/msp-reserve. Reservations require travelers to enter flight details and the number of people in the traveling party, and then select from a list of available times. At the airport, travelers will access a security checkpoint lane designated for MSP RESERVE passengers. After scanning a confirmation QR code with staff, travelers can enter the separate security lane.
The Terminal 1 MSP RESERVE lane will be located at the North Checkpoint.
Terminal 1 MSP RESERVE customers will be able to book security line reservations between 3:45 a.m. and 7:45 p.m. daily.
Terminal 2 MSP RESERVE passengers have opportunities to book security line times from 3:45 a.m. to 8 a.m. and noon to 4 p.m. daily.
