MINNEAPOLIS -- Tennessee's loss is Minnesota's gain; Pinnacle Airlines says it will move its headquarters to Minneapolis from Memphis by May.

The company employs about 500 people in it's main office and most of them could be making the move to the Twin Cities. Pinnacle has been reorganizing under bankruptcy protection, and when the company emerges from the process it will become part of Delta Air Lines Inc.

Pinnacle plans to move into empty Delta rental space at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Pinnacle expects to fly 81 regional jets for Delta.
