ggg196078 Posted December 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Hi has anyone done early walk off on cruise(with your luggage) and made a early flight? I know its a 20 minute ride to the airport from port. Im considering booking a 10:30 flight. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted January 4, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Since procedures vary by cruise line I would ask about this on the cruise line board for the cruise ship you are sailing. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princeton12321 Posted January 4, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 4, 2018 If you dock on time it should be ok- MSY is a teeny tiny airport compared to most big cities and you’ll be headed away from any rush hour traffic at 8am or so. It works on paper but only if the ship is on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dctravel Posted January 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Hi has anyone done early walk off on cruise(with your luggage) and made a early flight? I know its a 20 minute ride to the airport from port. Im considering booking a 10:30 flight. thanks Don’t do it (my opinion of course). While MSY is a smaller airport, TSA lines can be horrible. My last two time through, once security was 45 minutes+, and the other the Southwest ticket counter had an hour+ wait to check bags. New Orleans is a BIG convention city and that can really impact traffic to the airport and then at the airport.

Rare Saint Greg Posted January 6, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 6, 2018 I wouldn't chance it. Last year in Galveston we had a customs delay and everyone was late getting off the ship. The last person was supposed to be off by 9:30 and I know I didn't get off until 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare dctravel Posted January 6, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Just took an Uber to MSY (not from a cruise). Line at Southwest was about 200 people deep to check a bag. Uber driver said it had been like that all day, and it was his third run from downtown to the airport. In my mind, I would go later. Better safe than sorry.

Rare dctravel Posted February 15, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Now this post has me questioning a 12:30 pm flight. 12:30 should be fine. It is after the recommended time. Just don’t try and do something else before you go to the airport. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare dctravel Posted March 1, 2018 #13 Share Posted March 1, 2018 I think you will be cutting it close, but more doable IMHO than the OP. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
