 Frontier at MSY by ATXtraveler
If you are coming to Armstrong International to pick up an arriving passenger, Airport officials and Law Enforcement recommend parking in the Airport's Short-term Parking Garage immediately adjacent to the terminal building. The Short-term Garage has 2,500 parking spaces and is available at only $2.00 for the first hour. Travelers are encouraged to park in the Short-term Garage rather than circling the roadway system which is expected to be congested, especially in the evening hours.
If you are departing through Armstrong International today through Thursday, February 10, you should arrive at least two (2) hours prior to your scheduled departure time.
Check the status of your flight prior to coming to the Airport. This can be done through your airline's web site or at the "Flight Schedules" link on this site. This should be done if you are traveling or coming to the Airport to pick up an arriving passenger. Leave a Comment

Louis Armstrong International Airport is located just west of the City of New Orleans. You can take a taxi into the city, or, if you're not in a hurry, there's a cheaper shuttle bus that hits the major hotels in the French Quarter. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

If you have a flight leaving MSY in the afternoon (4:00 pm to 5:30 PM) beprepared to spend close to an hour in the security line. Every afternoon they line consists of 1200 to 1500 people and there are only 2 screening stations (Frontier terminal). I would highly recommend you call your airline and check on how long it will take to clear security to determine what time you need to get there. Makes LAX look like a walk in the park.

Airplane, unless you have a whole lot of time on your hands.
Taxis are the best way to get around. It's cheap and they're easy and plentiful at all hours. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Planes fly into NO Intl, and there is bus or shuttle service to town.
You can get around easily by foot. The trolley runs out to the garden district. Take taxis at night for safety reasons, even to the Garden District they should be under $10, plus the cabbies are always interesting. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

Lots of airlines fly direct or via another city.
Air Canada offers direct service from T.O.
Cabs and Walking. Bring comfortable shoes! Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

We rented a car from the airport....which can be a pain if your hotel doesn't have parking available. There is next to no parking in the French Quarter!
I don't recommend a taxi, unless you're alone. If you're with a group, they charge the meter price, plus an extra dollar for each person over one. So, if your fare is 3.50, and you have 4 people in the car, you pay 6.50 (then a tip is expected too...so it's up to around 8.00-----not exactly a nice policy)! Walking is great in the French Quarter, and the trolley is available around most of the rest of the city for a lot less than a taxi. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane
