Can anyone tell me if you can walk to the terminal from the Economy Lot at MSY. Wife and I have a flight at 5:00AM tomorrow and the shuttle doesn’t start till 4:00AM. Would like to be in the terminal a little before 4:00AM.

Any help is appreciated!

I believe the economy lot is at the old airport. So no you won't be able to walk

At that time of morning it would be best to park in long term parking at the airport. You could also park in the surface lot which you can walk.

The economy garage is the old parking garage at the old terminal so you can't walk. I wonder if you could walk down and Uber? I've never done that since they opened the new terminal

Use one of the private lots. Call them and make sure a shuttle will be running. The economy garage is a joke.

Nope. Economy lot is at the old airport.

Had to park there during Mardi Gras weekend as short term, long term and surface lot was full. Had to ride a bus over to the new terminal. Was able to get on one and get to airport fairly quickly. Ride is about 15 minutes. We had to wait 15-20 minutes for the bus to take us to parking when we returned. Wasn’t in a hurry, so no big deal. But that’s about 30-40 minutes of waiting/riding, etc.

Dang I’m late to this one. Would’ve suggested US Park. I used them a couple of weeks ago and have zero complains.

US Park has great coupons for first time users, shuttle is relatively reliable. That time in the AM is tough since you will have to shuttle over. Their prices have crept up enough that it's probably not worth the savings over parking on-site after the initial great promos, though. They do go on license plate so you can do it for multiple vehicles.

At the old terminal I was always thrifty with parking if I couldn't get a ride/pick-up...I used coupons rotating all the spots on Airline and/or would park and walk from the Credit Card lot they built on the other side of the rental car facility.

I don't play any of those games with the new terminal since its so hard to get there from the economy lots. I either do long-term, short-term (its only a few bucks more per day), or US Park, coupon or not. If it is a weekend I will make a US Park reservation just in case both short/long-term are full. Not trying to save $15 over 3 days and miss my flight.

No, so you can Uber to the airport, park in the new garage, or park at US Park.

I'll pay the extra for the surface lot. Grab my bag and walk right up to my truck
