Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Metro Airport to Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD) last minute?
Booking your flight from Metro Airport to BRD at the last minute could help you save if you're lucky to find an amazing deal. However, fares don't usually get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you take a wait-and-see approach, flights could also be booked out or the best seats gone (hello, middle seat!). If you'd rather err on the side of caution, book well ahead of when you want to leave. In fact, you can find some of the biggest deals up to 12 months in advance. If your preferred airline hasn't released tickets yet, check back regularly as deals are updated on Expedia all the time.
What airports do you fly into for Brainerd from Detroit?
You can zip from Detroit to Brainerd through Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD) and St. Cloud, MN (STC-St. Cloud Regional). Touch down at Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD) and you'll be around 6 kilometers to the northeast of central Brainerd. Drop your bags off at your digs and then discover some of this city's most sought-after sights, including Brainerd International Raceway and Lake Ossawinnamakee.
Can I change the date of my flight from DTW to BRD?
You can make changes to your DTW to Brainerd Lakes Regional Airport (BRD) trip by logging in to the Expedia Trips portal. But before you make any amendments, look over the rules and conditions in your itinerary to find out what the airline will allow you to do and if fees apply for changes.

You can also swing by our Customer Service portal for more handy information and to chat with our Virtual Agent.
