Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from YQT to BRD last minute?
Booking your flight from Thunder Bay Intl. Airport (YQT) to Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport last minute could save you cash if you stumble on an amazing deal. However, fares typically don't come down in price as the date of departure nears. If you choose to wait, flights could also be sold out or the best seats gone (because no one wants the middle seat). If you'd rather not hedge your bets, book well in advance of when you want to leave. In fact, some of the best deals are available on Expedia up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn't released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
What airports do you fly into for Brainerd from Thunder Bay?
There are two — Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD) and St. Cloud, MN (STC-St. Cloud Regional). Both are good choices for those flying from Thunder Bay to Brainerd. If you pick Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD), you'll land around 6 kilometers northeast of central Brainerd. After you've settled in to your hotel, it's time to check out some of the city's best sights. Brainerd International Raceway and Lake Ossawinnamakee are both a hit with locals and newcomers alike.
