Maiy Traffic. Dealing with fricking loyola instead of taking 310 to airline. Sharing the security line with the spirit passengers.

Because we spent God only knows how much money to downgrade from what we already had for no fricking reason. All I can figure is some politicians brother owns a concrete pylon company.

I don't work there so no idea but it seems like noise to put down MSY.

I do. And it was easier at the old terminal. The damn garage was not always full. I don't park at the off site lots that shuttle you so I don't like being shuttled from the old terminal either. I want a parking spot damn it. In short or long term garage.

The abortion of traffic that makes the Horace Wilkinson look like a slow day in a subdivision.

The parking that makes Tiger Stadium seem like a an off week at ULL

I’m sure it’s a nice airport if you get your wife to drop you off. No complaints about what goes on inside tbh

I get the parking, and traffic if you don't live here but anyone trying to talk shite about the airport is just noise.

Better parking. Better terminal layout. Wayyyy faster to get in and out of.


And since it’s all O&D traffic (no hub), the security and layout in relation to parking and rental cars is important.

New terminal is nice. But it’s much slower flying in and out of it. Which is a big deal for me. I can’t afford to burn that extra time every week on top of the 50 minutes extra in the car to get to MSY.

Alright bud. Getting to and parking at an airport isn’t an important detail about an airport. Got it.

Yes. The road layout for the original terminal was fantastic, and it's abysmal for the new one.

Do you seriously not understand how this is important and why people are frustrated about it?

People in BR seem like they have to fly out of MSY for some reason.


If you live between them it often makes good sense to fly out of MSY. Significantly more direct flight options.
