Boston–Minneapolis Flights

This route runs from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Minneapolis (MSP). Delta carries all of the nonstop award space in the data. The Airbus A321 appears on those nonstop award segments. About 20% of the award options in the data are nonstop.

Best Ways to Book With Points & Miles

Booking Boston–Minneapolis with points starts with the cabin, then the program. The economy floor is a partner booking on a Delta nonstop, with no connection to trade off against the points. Taxes and fees on that seat run about $6, below the route's typical economy taxes. First class runs about 3.6 times the economy price. Virgin Atlantic Flying Club is a bank-points transfer partner, but transfers are one-way, so confirm the seat before moving anything.

Best Points & Miles Programs

Virgin Atlantic Flying Club wins economy at 16,500 points and first class at 59,500, both on Delta nonstops. Virgin Australia Velocity is the only other program pricing the route. Even with Virgin Atlantic Flying Club on top, a last cross-check before transferring is cheap insurance.

Airlines & Routing Options

Delta alone shows nonstop award space on Boston–Minneapolis in the data. It's a SkyTeam carrier, so partner programs across the alliance can price it, not just Delta SkyMiles. Beyond the nonstop, the cheaper connecting awards in the data change planes in Chicago and Montreal. Virgin Atlantic Flying Club sets the first-class floor as a SkyTeam partner, selling the Delta nonstop at its own rates.

Alternative Airports & Routes

The data shows no same-metro alternate airports on either end of Boston–Minneapolis, so the main airports are the ones to watch. Two cheaper options from Boston at last check: Aruba from 8,900 points and Amsterdam from 10,000. When saver space runs out, a route alert is the simplest way to hear when it returns.

Booking tips

  1. 1Search flexible dates first, since saver award seats can appear on scattered days.
  2. 2Compare partner programs before transferring points, since the same seat can price very differently.
  3. 3Check both direct and connecting options when direct award seats are limited.
  4. 4Book early for peak travel periods, when saver space disappears fastest.
  5. 5Recheck availability often, since airlines may release more award seats closer to departure.
