The next thing to happen is MSY will be like most of the airports in Russia where the plane parks away from the terminal, a group of workers roll a staircase up to the plane, everybody gets off using the stairs and then walk a quarter of a mile to the terminal building.

I've done this in Denver in 0 degree weather. Sucked.

That said, I have never felt like the taxi times are that long at MSY.

Just took the stairs on/off 2 planes in CLT last week (E Terminal). And by the way...

1 - if you land on 18R/36L, you have to cross an active runway

2 - taxi times at peak from 18R/36L to E Terminal are pretty bad.
