The award is based on surveys sent to 595,000 on-site travelers at 400 airports located in 95 countries. The surveys included indicators defining a passenger’s overall experience, check-in, security, cleanliness, shopping and dining, as well as ease of finding their way through the airport.

“MSP’s streak of year-after-year ASQ awards is an impressive feat that demonstrates the continuous pursuit to create services, amenities and a total welcoming experience that has passengers eager to return to visit or do business in Minnesota,” MAC Chairman Rick King said in a prepared statement about the award.

MSP is also ranked as the 19th busiest airport in North America, having served 34.7 million people in 2023, up 11% from 2022, according to the MAC.
