Sitzmark Posted April 17, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2016 How early of a flight out of New Orleans is reasonable? 11:00am? Noon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dctravel Posted April 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Noon is safer. When we sailed the Carnival Dream a few weeks ago, we were delayed in being cleared to get off. We had a 12:45 flight, so never felt nervous that we had a time problem. Also, security at MSY that Sunday morning was a mess we were in the security line for 30-45 minutes. A later flight will ensure you have plenty of time. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 18, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I would be uncomfortable with a flight before noon. We have experienced very bad traffic around the cruise port, once taking us 20 minutes just to move a couple of blocks because of convention center traffic.

Rare Keith1010 Posted April 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I would go with something noon or after but not before noon. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lynda59 Posted April 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It would depend on the date. What else is going on in the city? Is there a Saints home game? The port is only a mile from the Superdome. Is there a festival? You can get in a taxi and be to the airport in less than 30 minutes on a quiet day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
