Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport doesn't get many international airlines/year-round heavies (Delta is the exception), but regional jets definitely frequent MSP. Seeing the heavies from foreign airlines (Condor, Air France, and now KLM) is definitely one of the highlights during the summer months.


Heavies and regional jets will mainly use 12R/30L and 12L/30R, respectively. This shortens the length of their taxi routes to their assigned gates. Additionally,  heavies will usually be assigned gates on Concourse G. Charters (usually about the size of a 737 or a 757) will park near Signature Flight Support, directly across from concourses G and F.
