This process makes meeting your driver quick and consistent at both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2.

8. Do you offer transportation for MSU Mankato students?

Absolutely. Citywide frequently serves MSU Mankato students for college breaks, move-in and move-out days, holidays, and airport travel. Rides can be booked by students, family members, or other contacts arranging transportation on their behalf.

9. Can you accommodate groups or families traveling to MSP?

Yes. We offer vehicles that work well for families, small groups, and event travel. If you have several people traveling together or extra luggage (such as sports gear, instruments, or conference materials), just note this when booking so we can match you with an appropriate vehicle.

10. What happens if my flight is delayed?

Your driver monitors your flight status using the flight information you provide. If your arrival is delayed, your MSP → Mankato pickup time is adjusted accordingly. We understand that flight schedules change and plan for reasonable delays whenever possible.

11. Do you provide executive or business-class service to Mankato?

12. Can I schedule multiple stops in Mankato?

Yes. You can request planned stops along your route, such as dropping off a coworker, stopping at a hotel, or visiting a campus location before heading to your final destination. When you book, mention the extra stops so we can include them in your quote and schedule.

13. What if I’m traveling during winter weather?

We operate year-round and are very familiar with Minnesota winter driving conditions. During snow, ice, or storms, your driver may add extra travel time for safety. You should still plan plenty of time to reach MSP ahead of your flight, especially during peak winter weather.

14. How far in advance should I book my ride?

To help ensure availability, we recommend booking your Mankato ⇄ MSP ride at least one week in advance, especially for early flights, weekends, and event dates. Same-day bookings are often possible if a vehicle and driver are available, but advance reservations are strongly encouraged.

16. Are there any hidden costs?

No. Citywide uses flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees. The quote you receive is the full price for your ride. The only additional cost would be an optional driver gratuity if you choose to leave one.
