Fall of 2019

quote:

The city of New Orleans and the New Orleans Aviation Board announced the delay Thursday (April 11) in a news release, noting the delay comes after “evaluating the status of all construction activities and consulting with key stakeholders.” This the fourth time the new terminal project opening has been pushed back. The airport was most recently set to open May 15.




New Orleans being New Orleans

They should honestly delay it until the flyover access is finished.

The opening of both should have always coincided.

Boh Brothers is on the project. They never finish anything on time.

Seriously, we can laugh at NOLA government but this is more the fault of our crappy construction companies and subs than anything else.

Pics were posted a couple of weeks ago and at the time I said there was no way, no how, it was going to be done by May 15th.

It would be more fun to predict the day the next delay will be announced than to predict the day it actually opens.

I'll say the 5th delay will be announced Sept 12th and set a new opening date of January 2020.

I heard from a reliable source that they're going to blame it on the food & beverage vendors not being ready (The Airport was late in turning the spaces for vendors over to them).

Aviation Board =/= Honorable or Efficient

How opening it up before the access was finished was every a good idea, I'll never understand.

Oooooohhhhhhhh.

I was thinking about buying a round trip to dallas or Houston so I can leave the old terminal at MSY and then come back to the new terminal the next day.

Good to hear I don't have to do that now.
