I have a thing or two to say about this. Ha! An unexpected travel hub has been named the least stressful in the entire country. Traveling is very stressful so this is saying something.

The best part? The airport that took the top spot is in Minnesota! It is not the Duluth International Airport sadly. Although, I do think that it is one of the most relaxing airports I have ever been too.

Just this week, Mozio named the most stressful airports in the country. To put this into perspective, they only looked at the twenty busiest airports in the country based on foot traffic and took things from there.

The website allows travelers to book transportation wherever they are going. To craft their list from most to least stressful, analysts looked at how often flights are delayed, how much it costs to park for a day and how long it takes to reach the city center.

Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport Named The Least Stressful

I definitely think MSP Airport is stressful but maybe that's just me! MSP Airport ranked last in this study, getting an airport stress score under two out of ten, which is incredible. This study states that the airport scored high in every regard.

The MSP Airport has one of the highest on-time departure rates of the ones featured in this study. Did you know about eight in ten flights leave within fifteen minutes of their scheduled time? That's impressive.

Parking is about thirty bucks a day. I always pay to park and it costs a small fortune, so I am surprised it is on the cheaper end compared to other busier airports. Last but not least, it is a short drive to the Minnesota State Capitol, especially compared to other airports on this list.

As for the most stressful airport? That would be the Chicago O'Hare International Airport, followed by LaGuardia Airport. I can't go against this one. The O'Hare Airport is extremely stressful. Although, I am an anxious traveler so maybe I am the problem. Ha!

The Official 2025 U.S. Government 'Do Not Travel' List

Traveling to unique and exotic places rather than the usual tourist traps can be quite an adventure. However, it's crucial to research your destination thoroughly.

While every trip comes with some risk, requiring you to mind your surroundings and take some precautions, there are some places you should probably avoid because the risks far outweigh the benefits.

The United States government has a convenient website that helps by listing travel advisories they have in place for countries all over the world, ranking the risk from Level 1 through Level 4.

You should NOT travel there if a country is issued a Level 4 advisory. As of May 2025, the countries below are on the 'Do Not Travel' list.
