No kidding!! That is why I quit going to MSP and switched to LAX, much easier.
When I was a kid, NWA ran a Whale between PHX and MSP during snow bird season. It was still a DC-10 sometimes during the day when I was a new hire. With all the old Hughes Airwest guys still commuting up to MSP, this was one ***ch of a commute......and why I stayed in Texas till most of them retired
I guess there is no yield here anymore, but man you could fill some seats with a widebody outta here this time of year
