Latest New Orleans hotel reviews

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.

I watched Southwest Airlines fares and got a ticket from Phoenix to New Orleans for $200.00. The flight there was great! We got there and to take a taxi for 3 of us to our downtown hotel was only $21.00. It is a flat rate they charge from the airport to the city.
We walked everywhere excpet the St. Charles street car.

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.

either car or plane...you will definately know what a swamp is if you drive there.
get around by WALKING. Don't drive drunk, please. You really only want to go to the french quarter, new orleans really isn't that great a city outside of the drunk quarter, I meant french, sorry.

I was freaking when I read about the long lines at the airport, so we were there 2 1/2 hours early for no reason. Security took less than 5 minutes.

New Orleans has a fine International Airport, about 12 miles from downtown.
New Orleans is served by Interstates 10, 55, and 59. Amtrak serves the city as well.

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.
