Radar vectors.

Some form of electronic course guidance.

A runway (hopefully)

Nothing significantly different than hundreds of other airports around the country. What exactly are you looking for?

Thanks for answering my question. I was just looking for some background information on MSP. This is one of the airports I have never flown into and I was just making sure there wasn't anything different. Thanks again

Are you going in there as an operating airline crewmenber, or on a personal flight or GA charter?

What A squared said plus you may want to ask for a progressive taxi to your gate.

thanks for the info I will do that

Very easy airport to operate into and out of, no real need for progressive if you have your 10-9 page out, approaches nothing special either. From Dallas, you'll probably get rwy 35 (wind permitting). If your tail # ends in NK, you'll go to the Humphrey terminal, which won't be a long taxi. If you're tail # end in AA or AN, see you at Terminal 1, E Gates.

Something that is extremely important and a must when you approach into MSP,
If assigned rwy 35, manage your energy as to cross between 10-15 miles at idle.........! :ok:

A Squared 27th Mar 2014 16:54

As others have said, know where your company's gates are, take a look at the 10-9. Wouldn't be a bad idea to review the arrivals and approaches to get a little familiarity.
