Recommendation
For a balance of comfort and efficiency, I recommend flying from Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport to San Antonio International Airport, then renting a car to drive the approximately 1.5 hours to Schulenburg. This option ensures you spend less time in transit while maximizing comfort, especially on such a long distance.
