Runways are too short I believe.


It's not that. (AF1 and others can land here) and the Runway is longer than Princess Juliana. It's more so that NOLA is not an 'Intercontinental' airport. There are no long haul direct flights that require a wide body aircraft like that.

The vast majority of MSY flights are 737 sized craft.
I think we only have International to Mexico, the Caribbean and Canada.

I thought at one time Delta had a nonstop to CDG from MSY, which I assume would be on a 747. I could be completely making that up, though.

New Orleans does not have any commercial international flights only available for purchase at this time.

Vacation Express offers a seasonal vacation package with non stop service to Punta Cana one day per week and 2-3 per week to Cancun. Both on 737s.
