Traveling to Barbados Monday, flight is 1115,,,,how far ahead of time do you recommend arriving to check bags and do security. We have TSA pre screen

I am assuming that you mean MSY (New Orleans) and board 30 minutes prior to flight departure, so assume 11:15 a.m. boarding. If you have TSA Pre and you are checking bags, arrive 30-45 minutes prior, so 10:30 a.m. to be safe, but 10:45 a.m. also works. It also depends on which airline and if you have priority with that particular airline. For example, if you are A-List or better with Southwest, it just takes 5 - 10 to check bags and only 5 - 10 minutes to go through TSA-Pre (unless there is a convention in town departing that day). I hope this helps.

I'd give two hours. That leaves buffer time for check-in (passport verification, baggage check), security, and any other messes MSY throws at you morning of. Start vacation off relaxed, dont push it by unnecessary rushing through the airport

I routinely show up at one hour prior to departure at MSY. That is usually by taxi or short term garage. If I am returning a rental I add at least half hour.

For international you might want to add an hour if it doesn't impede your day too much.

Also US Parkign on Vets has been really doing a nice job lately. MSY parking on-site is a mess some days.
