Gabriel HayesSeptember 28, 2015In Concourse D, Wow Cafe is a good place to pass a long layover. Sit at the bar, have a bloody mary and watch sports.
Minimal amount of food options past security, don't even get me started on the lack of healthy options. I'm surprised the planes are able to take off after passengers load up on Popeyes.
Staying near the action? Take the E2 (bus) for only $2 then transfer to the streetcar. A "jazzy pass"it's only $3 to ride all day!
Majed AlashariApril 26, 2020Modern airport with easy directions inside. Taxi line is long so be prepare for it.
Racky RossJuly 25, 2015Wifi is definitely better than any New York airport. Love the laid back atmosphere, and the lack of screaming children and annoying travelers.
Rochelle SimonFebruary 29, 2016Please don't use those bathrooms. It doesn't seem to be cleaned very often. And there are only about 3 stalls(maybe 4 stalls) In the women's bathroom. The sink is opposite side of the towel paper!
Christopher LongOctober 25, 2014The airport feels small for the size of the city it serves and the number of tourists it hosts. The best part of the airport is the free WiFi. Also, it's not far from downtown.
Dana Simone StovallJune 4, 2022Leah’s restaurant is very good! Malibu VooDoo Drink and the shrimp po boy…excellent! Get Alan the waiter.
HadiMarch 24, 2017Nice seats, very accessible and easy if you want to Harfe your devices and/or work while waiting for your flight.
The Delta terminal is by far the most updated and clean. If you smell hotdogs in any of the terminals it's Luckydog don't get one if you are going to sit next to someone for 3 hours on a plane!
Jen PDecember 15, 2022Grab a taxi instead of an Uber. It’s a flat rate of $36 vs prices in the $70s.
Terminal D has plenty of food and drink now!! Come on in and enjoy the new amenities. Could use a few clocks scattered around so I know what time it is!!
Make sure you check the departure screen right after security otherwise you're walking all the way to the end of the terminal to find out what gate you need.
Ricardo HernandezApril 15, 2016Small airport. Security is a breeze. Make sure to bring your lunch, not a lot of food options.
James McGeeJuly 24, 2011Gettin out of the heat to San Diego?? Stop by Ruth's Chris Steak House on Harbor Dr. Serving sizzling USDA Prime Steaks every night right across from the Bay!! Let the Good Times Roll!!
Leaving Louisiana? Enjoy one last luxury. Get a drink from the bar and take it to the gate (or on the plane). Happy travels!
If you fly american on a Friday afternoon, there are only 3 real options for places to eat, and the lines can get pretty long so plan accordingly!
New Terminals opening - very close to Downtown. Average non commute drive 18-25 minutes. 35-40 in height of commute.
Marvin McTawMay 7, 2017Simple airport to navigate and quick enough to get to the terminal and gate. Look forward to the expansion underway.
For long term parking, skip the airport and go to an off-site lot like US Park. Much cheaper, Great service and a quick free shuttle ride away.
Meredith McGuireAugust 4, 2019Nice airport and TSA didn’t take too long; but it was EXTREMELY cold for needing to wait 6 hours overnight. Maybe put in some sleeping lofts like they have in Japan (paid, of course, by the hour).
NOLA is known for its great food, music, culture, etc. The airport doesn't give you that great impression of what the city has to offer.
Danielle GrayJuly 4, 2012The Airport Shuttle is totally the way to get to your hotel from the airport. One way ticket is $20, RT $30. Cabs are approx $34 o/w. Buy ticket online or at kiosk by baggage claim
TSA at MSY is ridiculous! Why 1 person is checking boarding passes and 3 "watching" when there are 50+ people in line makes 0 sense to me. My advice is get there early / in plenty of time!- patricia freyJune 15, 2019Airlines should stop “talking over each other’s announcements”! Also make sure ALL monitors and electrical outlets work!!!!
Jessica LaneJune 30, 2011There's a FREE shuttle that takes you from the airport to the French Quarter for the Essence Music Festival weekend. I think it just started today, DEFINITELY check that out!! Read more
There is just No Place like NOLA! Experience It! Breath It! Fall In Love With It!
Patricia NguyenJune 2, 2013Lobby of C and D terminal has waiting spaces that have USB and regular outlets if you want to charge up. From what I can see the chairs at the gate in terminal d have outlets as well.
Randy RaetzNovember 3, 2013Men: If you need to use a shitter, go all the way down to the 3rd men's bathroom. It has a wheelchair access sign. The first two bathrooms only have 2 stalls & guys are reading Star magazine. WTF!
Katherine FehrAugust 17, 2013If you're in terminal C go to copeland's kitchen and get a banana foster sundae. It's remarkable!!
- Airport is easy to get around. Good selection of food in most gates. Not a bad drive if you live in the Baton Rouge area.
- Watty WattsJanuary 25, 2019Heading downtown? Go to the departure level and catch the E2 bus. It’s $2 per person and it only adds about 15 minutes to your ride.
Jeremy ElrodNovember 23, 2012If you need to ship something home, go to "Rush It" on the baggage concourse. They'll ship whatever you need, including a pocket knife I forgot to put in my checked bag.
Andrew O BC 翁January 9, 2015This airport named after the famous 1st US astronaut walked on the moon "a step for all mankind", Louis Armstrong.
Gwen MahanOctober 11, 2013You can grab beer or wine from a lil place across gate b7 and take it to drink @ your terminal! No need to sit @ the bar.
Sean MillerMay 10, 2017The airport was not bad considering its age. Quick tip: The rental car center is quite a hike from concourse b...so be prepared for long walk.- Welcome to Louisiana! Grab a daiquiris at the drive-thru daiquiris shop a block away. Enjoy your stay!
Easy to get in and out of, but the food options are lacking once you're inside.
If you are checking through TSA pre-check you don't have to remove shoes, belts, or take laptops out. Funny that so many still do despite signs .
New airport doesn’t have any restaurants prior to entering the gate. If you planned on arriving early and sitting down bring a snack. The gate area doesn’t have much seating, or charge stations.
Terminal D finally gets a facelift. Check out the new seats in the rotunda. United has lots of outlets.- Terminal D is really nice and Wow Cafe has a great veggie burger. So stupid they're wasting tax payer money to build a new airport.
Republican National ConventionJuly 20, 2012Vice President George H. W. Bush was nominated for president at the 34th Republican National Convention at the Louisiana Superdome, currently know as the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, August 15–18, 1988.
