The people at hobby told me the runways and tower have power but the terminal doesn't.
Need to start running extension cords.

Told you the extension cords would work.

I agree, but you can bet someone like McKay or the other doom and gloomers would have bitched about the new airport not having back up generators in place if they had waited until the last minute to move them.

The airport could have rented temp generators so that neither the old or new airport would be without backup power.

I’m sure the contractor sold them as “new”, moved the existing ones to the new terminal and pocketed the money. That’s how NOLA rolls.

Yeah I just left. What a great daytrip to NOLA!

At least the new place will have lots of sunlight for when the power goes out.

I’ll echo what someone else said: BTR > MSY all day

was just about to say that. I’m sure they lose power but I’ve never heard of an Airport losing power for a prolonged period of time. How does a place like that not have backup generators?
Back in 07/08 msy would have the power go out quite a bit. Planes would land and not be able to find the way to the gates.

Planes are moving. Those folks who just landed are going to have fun getting ubers and taxis
