Best Time to Travel to New Orleans

You'll find the most revellers flooding the French Quarter's streets between the months of February and May, in the weeks surrounding Mardi Gras and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival. Then things pick up again in October and November when the temperature is at its nicest, with thermometers measuring between 20 and 25 degrees Celsius.

December and January compose the shoulder season in New Orleans, when tourism slows down and room rates tend to fall. Although these are the coldest months of the year here, temperatures mostly stay in the double-digits and provide comfortable conditions to enjoy many of the city's attractions. With the exception of Sugar Bowl weekend, which usually falls near the end of January, you shouldn't expect to run into many crowds.

Off Season:

New Orleans Airport and Transfer Information

Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY)

Distance: 24 km north of New Orleans’ centre

Although this airport currently bears the name of one of the most famous jazz musicians in American history, MSY retains the IATA code from its former incarnation as Moisant Stock Yards, designated in honour of a daredevil aviator who performed in this area during the early 20th century.

Once your plane touches down on the tarmac, hire a taxi to take you to your final destination, or arrive there via an Amtrak train or Greyhound bus. Alternatively, you may elect for more-affordable public transportation provided by Jefferson Transit, or hop in any of the shuttles or limousines provided by MSY.
