Together with its neighboring city, Saint Paul, Minneapolis forms the largest metropolitan area in Minnesota. The city is known for its parks, cultural scene, and tax-free shopping.

A new direct route from Dublin to Minneapolis-St. Paul will commence on April 29, 2024. "Choose from four flights a week aboard our A330," the announcement states. Travelers from the UK or Europe have various options to connect via Dublin.

Minneapolis offers a blend of urban and green spaces, with visitors never being more than six blocks away from one of the city's 180 parks. Minnehaha Park, spanning 170 acres, is noted for its hiking trails and Minnehaha Falls.
