With assets of $8.4 billion, the credit union serves eligible Minnesota and Wisconsin counties, the metro areas of Detroit, Orlando, Atlanta and employees in the air transportation industry nationwide.

Significant growth began after World War II as Northwest Airlines expanded across the country and the Pacific.

In 2004, the credit union expanded beyond Northwest Airlines and opened its doors to other employees in the air transportation industry in the United States.

In August 2009, members of Wings Financial voted to become a state-chartered credit union, extending membership to thirteen counties in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul area.
