welldone60 Posted May 5, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Taxi's are $33 for up to 3, then $12 per person. A few hotels offer shuttle service. Taxi from hotel to port is $7 per person. These are set prices. Edited May 5, 2014 by welldone60 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacer1 Posted May 5, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Hello, Does anyone have any suggestions on transportation and costs from MSY airport in New Orleans to convention center area hotels? Many Thanks, I know the taxis have flat fees to the port. Believe it's $33 for 1 or 2 and $19 each for 3 or more. Just google your question...lots of info.

cruising_diva Posted May 5, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Carnival has a shuttle service for $20 - something per person. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tncap Posted May 5, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 5, 2014 We took a limo for four for around $90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostPuppy Posted May 5, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 5, 2014 I was going to reply, but realized this has nothing to do with Carnival and is actually about departure ports. I'll wait till it is moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monker2001 Posted May 5, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 5, 2014 We took a limo for four for around $90. Do you mind me asking which limo company you used? We are looking for one and I haven't found one for less than $230. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tahoemc Posted May 6, 2014 #8 Share Posted May 6, 2014 There is also an airport shuttle for $20pp one-way, $38pp round trip, which makes it economical if there is only one person. If there are 2 or more, you are better off taking a cab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted May 6, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 6, 2014 We did this last month. The rates are posted on sign boards and in the cab. As stated, there is a flat rate between the two points, and it is $33.00 for up to 2 people. We went from the airport to the Embassy Suites by the Convention Center; any hotel in the Convention Center area is the same price. Have fun!

bme Posted August 31, 2014 #12 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Does anyone think/know if there is any advantage to booking a cruise line (Carnival) sponsored transfer vs. the airport shuttle? The Carnival r/t price is $8 more pp. I'd consider it if there is some safety that they'll "hold the ship" once we're on the bus... http://www.carnival.com/cruise-transfers/new-orleans.aspx http://www.airportshuttleneworleans.com/ I am traveling in a group of 5 and prefer not to need to split between more than one taxi.
