When you make your reservation, you will receive a reservation number.  Enter this number in the remarks section of your flight plan in and out bound.  Use your reservation time as your proposed departure time when you file your IFR flight plan out of the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropolitan area.  File flight plans IAW published routes during the February 1st –6th time frame; see Special NOTAMs for TFR and special routing information. Operators participating in this reservation system will be handled as expeditiously as conditions permit, to best meet reservation times.

Parking is expected to be very limited at all surrounding airports in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropolitan area.
