Leah EJune 15, 2011Good airport... Small, very few long lines (compared to the big hubs). Every flight I've flown coming back in arrives early. Almost no New Orleans delays here! :)
Dani CApril 20, 2013They have separate TSA areas for each terminal so make sure you are at the RIGHT one!!!
Always a good experience at this airport. Security is normally pretty quick too
A small airport with improvements on the way... but at the current time there are underwhelming eateries and shops, and the inside is pretty bland and borderline ugly. Needs modernization ASAP!!
Ted FrankNovember 4, 2013The bathrooms by the Lost & Found in Concourse C are a relic of the pre-9/11 security setup, get no foot traffic, and are much cleaner than typical airport bathrooms.
Jake SmithMarch 25, 2016Not many food options past security (at least in the Southwest terminal). Keep that in mind if you're fighting a vicious Bourbon Street hangover.- Sam (@HandstandSam)February 12, 2011PRO TIP: Eat BEFORE you go through security at ACME Oyster house. Delicious, but dont go there if you are short on time. Food options are BEFORE security.
Emily PiecrustJuly 17, 2010Concourse B has decent food. Lucky Dogs, Praline Express, and Live Oaks are some local options. The Magnificent Burger from Jester's was pretty good, and huge to boot.
Anthony RalloNovember 9, 2012There are 2 taxi lines so check both for the shortest one (hint- it may have no one there so you get a cab immediately).
Great place to see beautiful sunsets!... ☺ #Sunset #Weather
Patricia NguyenJune 2, 2013There an entertainment schedule on the airport website if you are stuck. Catch some jazz while you wait!
Beware if you are renting a car. Rental area is 30 min away! The busses travel on public roads and are very far away from the main terminal. You get dropped off at arrivals, not departures. 🤬
Riley ShryockFebruary 21, 2015Efficient. NOLA style friendly. I wish I could fly in AND out of here!
Sarah ShirkeyJune 25, 2019Before going through security for C Gates, eat in the main airport area, Dooky Chase has a location here. Nothing much to offer once in terminal C.
Michael SheehanJune 29, 2022If you haven’t been to the new airport, get prepared to be blown away. Haven’t been to MSY since 2014 and this new experience is incredible. Well done 👍🏻
Doug WMay 17, 2017I hate to say anything bad about a place with Louis Armstrong's name on it, but this is the lamest big city airport I've ever been to. Just a whole lot of nothing once you go through security.
Tons of power outlets and free wifi in Concourse D! MSY, you've impressed me!
New additions make the airport look great! Dunkin donuts outside terminal C opens at 4am
Emily KDecember 17, 2012There's no directional signs for the ticketing/check in booths if you come from Parking. Ask for directions
The rental car pick up is at the old terminal…. Horrible 30min rough ride. Whoever planned this needs to be fired.
Char BeApril 29, 2012Take the airport shuttle round trip if staying downtown, it's half the price of a cab and very convenient.
If you need to kill time, the Hilton across the street is comfortable, nice, and has wireless and good food.
Shana JSeptember 24, 2011Great souvenir shopping, but eat before you get here. There is no good good in here at all. But the drinks at the bakery at B9 are fabulous
Small airport with not a lot of services but you can get through security quickly and it’s never a long walk to your gate.
People!! Pack your liquids in checked bags!! The number of Bath & Body Works products I just saw thrown away could've opened a small store!!!
Ivette TorresJuly 24, 2013Have one more cup of coffee and some beignets at West Beignets before you go in.
- Island BruinMay 6, 2019Long long walk to the rental car facility. On the plus side, you can buy liquor to go at baggage claim. Welcome to NO.
Holly RingleOctober 1, 2018The code for this airport is MSY and now I know why. It’s definitely messy. Approx 1,000 people in line for taxis and Uber wasn’t allowed on to premises due to a storm.
Did you remember to pack all liquids and gels into your checked bag that are over 3oz?
Robin InlowOctober 24, 2012The people were great but the airport is under construction and so once you check in to your terminal you can't go to another. Don't expect to find the normal restaurants open inside the terminal.
Scott HendersonJune 7, 2011On your way out, you can recharge your batteries at the PJ's and fill your belly at Acme before going thru security
Jason LockhartNovember 8, 2013Concourse B fucking blows!! No train from the rental car station, and you have the choice for Zatarain's for food (waiting for 45min) or you can eat shit (ie overpriced hot dogs from a street vendor)
April WelchApril 17, 2011If you fly US Air & have any issues ~ find Delia B, she is amazing! {Yo USair you should be giving her a serious raise!}
Foxxy BMarch 13, 2017Concourse C has little worth eating—an employee at the Zatarain's literally told me nothing was good. Don't expect to survive on anything but water & snacks, sprinkled with gross fatty southern fare.
1MCGAugust 7, 2019No matter how many times I say hello or good morning no one speaks back. They look at you like your crazy and mean.
What other airport in the world can you see advertisements for liver transplants?
