New Orleans airport was a great experience. I read on tigerdroppings for weeks prior to Wednesday - day before Thanksgiving - where posters painted a truly horrid picture. I watched the news stations interview the end of the world at MSY.

So, I got to the airport at 12:30 for a 2:30 flight. I parked in short term parking - where it was a 3 minute walk to check your bags in. Then it was another 3 minute walk to security where we went straight through and sitting at the gate in less than 15 minutes total. We then toured the Concourses and viewed the 40 options for lunch and decided to have a good meal.

It was a absolute great experience. No traffic. No lines. No baggage issues. The new airport is amazing and truly a destination airport.

Thanks for posting, Mitch.



The airport isn't bad at all, it just needs some tweaking (which is to be expected from such an endeavor as a whole new airport).

If they can ever get a fly-over done and make a separate entrance/exit for pick-ups/arrivals then it will get a whoooooole lot better.
