How to Find Cheap Air Travel to/from New Orleans

Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (airport code MSY) lies primarily in the city of Kenner, Louisiana and is a scant four feet above sea level, but is the only world’s second lowest lying international airport (Schiphol in The Netherlands sits 11 feet below sea level). New Orleans’ airport is about 11 miles from the central business district of the city of New Orleans. Prior to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, MSY (which got its code from its original name, Moisant Field) served almost 10 million passengers every year, and the airport’s operations are expected to be at only 66% of their pre-Katrina capacity by the middle of 2007. While New Orleans is not a hub for any airline, Southwest Airlines maintains a large presence at the airport.

A map of the airport, with links to the various passenger facilities available, is here. Clicking on each of the different areas of the map will give you information about the dining and shopping options in each. There are two WiFi hotspots in the airport – one in the Delta Crown Room on Concourse D (available for a fee) and one in the West Lobby in front of PJ’s Coffee (free with a purchase from PJ’s). There is also a baggage storage service available, which is unusual at US airports since 9/11 (information here). Ground transportation options can be found here.
