Traveling options to the Peach Bowl

Flights are mostly gone/vastly over-priced....driving is a 9 Hr. pain, then parking head-aches etc. ! Consider the 11 1/2 hr. train ride from N.O. to Atl. for $ 132 roundtrip ! Then utilize MARTA to get around the city !

Driving is a pain but adding 1/3 travel time and riding on a train with nasty people is a better option for you??

It'll take two hours to get out of Baton Rouge.

The drive to Atlanta is really easy

Which train company are you taking?

This. We knew that flights out of both BR and NOLA would be limited and sell out quickly, so we're opting to drive. Parking fees at the hotel will suck, but it will still be cheaper than flying and it's not a bad drive.

Sounds like you are sweating the small stuff and missing the bigger picture. Get over yourself

Amtrak crescent line...nice large/comfortable seats/wifi/outlets and you can bring your own cocktails along ! It's clean & comfortable, plus I'm not afraid of other folks...lol

Train is the way to go...especially if have a group of people

I’ve done this and you’re post is accurate.
I actually like takin the train with my group. You can move around , drink, socialize , play cards. take a nap, read , watch movies, etc..the time flies.
Comfortable and easy .

You could take a hot air balloon, you could hitchhike, you could walk if you leave now.

Yeah I'm flying out of Gulfport. Got a roundtrip for $322 when I booked. It was like $350 less than Nola.

No MARTA station convenient to Amtrak. You’ll have to take cab/Uber to your hotel when you initially get there.

Hotel will provide shuttle to/from Marta Peachtree station

I did Megabus from NOLA to ATL for the SEC game because I didn't feel like driving. Original trip only cost me $13, but I changed my departure date and it bumped the cost to $50.
Bus is double decker and has 81 seats. Stops to pick up in Mobile, stops for 20 minutes in Evergreen for a pit stop, stops to pick up in Montgomery and drops off at Civic Center MARTA Station.
Trip takes about 9 hours.
