MSY Airport Departure Drop-Off Car Service

Pickup timing: Back-timed from your flight
Availability: 24 / 7, including pre-dawn
Pricing: Flat rate, confirmed at booking

Getting to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport for a departure is mostly a question of timing, and that is what a reserved car does best. MSY Limo Service picks you up at a time worked back from your flight, your airline's check-in guidance and the traffic that morning, and drops you at the departures curb with the luggage on the sidewalk.

The early flights that leave New Orleans before dawn are exactly when other ride options are thinnest. A chauffeur booked the night before is at the door at the agreed time, every day of the year, and the flat rate was confirmed when you booked.

We collect from the French Quarter, the CBD and Warehouse District, Uptown, Mid-City, Lakeview, the Westbank, Metairie, Kenner, the Northshore, Baton Rouge and the Gulf Coast.

How we time your pickup

Give us the flight number and we will suggest a pickup time. From downtown the drive is usually 20 to 30 minutes on I-10, but rush hour, a Superdome event, rain or a parade route can stretch it, and dispatch factors that in. The chauffeur monitors traffic on the morning itself and can leave earlier if the interstate is slow. If your flight is delayed before you leave, tell dispatch and we will move the pickup.

Chauffeurs choose between I-10, Airline Drive and Earhart Boulevard depending on what is moving, and the terminal is reached from Loyola Drive on the north side of the airfield.

Early-morning car service

For flights that leave before breakfast, we recommend booking the night before at the latest and confirming the address, the number of bags and any car seats. The chauffeur will text from outside rather than ringing a bell in a sleeping building. Hotel guests should ask the front desk to hold luggage in the lobby so the departure takes a minute rather than ten.

Groups, cruise passengers and business travelers

Families and cruise passengers with more luggage than a sedan can carry ride in a Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban or Mercedes Sprinter van. Companies with several staff flying out on the same morning can book one Sprinter rather than a fleet of rides, on one flat rate. Corporate accounts receive a receipt for every trip and a single monthly invoice.
