Land To Air Express - Land to Air Express Shuttle Bus Services

Land To Air Express

It's a great service for southern Minnesota. The times are great, drivers experienced and…read moreprofessional, and they take the stress out of holiday travel. On a personal note: I had to travel for a family emergency. Knowing the seriousness of the event, the driver went out of his way to drop me off at the airport as it was the end of his shift. They have competition now, but know that they have been here for a while and they have a personal touch that gives them a competitive edge.

I am a busy mom of 7 who has been looking forward to traveling alone for the first time in 23…read moreyears. I reserved a Land to Air shuttle ticket for Wednesday, 3/19, around 8 AM. Bad weather is moving in tomorrow (I get it) and I received a phone call today that all shuttles are cancelled for tomorrow. I was told that I'll have an account opened in my name and credit will be issued. I disagreed that was a good idea and was told my request would be "passed to corporate." The only credit I can give the company is that "corporate" called me and stated that my credit can be used for 12 months from today. I stated that I disagreed with this policy and do not plan to use this credit. I don't understand how they can justify this. Drivers won't be clocking in tomorrow, no gas is being used on these shuttles, and I'm not just scrambling to change my travel plans, I'm baffled that a small business in the Midwest would think non-refundable is the way to go when THEY decide to cancel the shuttle. Read the other reviews below because I'm not the only person who's been in this position. I'm not planning to travel again on Land to Air again and they can keep the "credit" on my account. I've had my money's worth sharing my experience honestly. Get a friend to drive you to the airport instead!

Flying Cloud is a public airport located in Eden Prairie (Hennepin County) and covers 543 acres…read moreover 3 runways. Back in the my early years, my Family drove through old Shakopee (past the grain elevator) and up and past the Flying Cloud Airport on our way to the Twin Cities. We would even stop to look around and marvel at this geographically interesting location (and an old ski area down the hill). The airport was created in 1941 when the United States Navy was training pilots for World War II. The Navy made arrangements with a local farmer, Martin "Pappy" Grill, to use a grass landing strip. Pilots flying from Wold-Chamberlain Airport, now Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, would use this field for practicing approaches. After the war, Grill sold the field and some adjoining land and the field was named "Flying Cloud Airport" to reflect local Indian lore and flying. The Metropolitan Airports Commission bought the airport in 1948 and paved the runway. A control tower in 1963. By 1966, it was ranked the second-busiest airport in the central United States behind Chicago-O'Hare International Airport. In 1968, it was the ninth-busiest airport in the United States. Today it is designated by the FAA as a reliever airport and aircraft are restricted to 60,000 pounds or less, except in an emergency situation or when operated by the U.S. Government. And because of the airport's proximity to the Valleyfair amusement park, the rides are restricted in height by FAA regulations.
