Both the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) and the Rochester International Airport (RST) are within 1.5 – 2 hours of New Ulm.
MSP tends to have more flight options, better fares and better transportation options to New Ulm, but RST can be worth a look to compare fares.
The airport is approximately a 90 minute drive to New Ulm, MN.
There are several car rental services available. There is also a less expensive shuttle service that drops off and picks up passengers approximately 30 minutes from New Ulm in Mankato, MN where we could easily transport people to and from. This needs to be booked in advance.
