Airports

Lafayette Regional Airport (LFT) – Andrew’s Choice Pro’s: LFT is brand new, less hectic, and within 20 minute drive of both hotels. Con’s: Flights are typically $100-$200 more than MSY, and the only direct flights are to IAH, DFW, ATL, and CLT.

Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) Pro’s: MSY is brand new, flights are typically more available, direct, and less expensive. MSY is located just outside New Orleans, making it a great airport for those that might want to extend their visit a bit longer and stay in the city. Con’s: This airport is about 1.5 to 2 hours from the wedding venue/hotels, and the rental car situation can be a bit trying at times. If you choose this airport be sure to plan for extra time spent picking up/returning your rentals!

Car Rentals

LFT has multiple rental car companies at the airport, if your flight is landing late in the evening (after 9pm) I’d call ahead and make sure they plan to have someone there to check you in. MSY has much more rental car capacity than LFT, but its lots are located offsite at the old airport and you have to take a bus to/from which can be time consuming. Not a bad option, just be sure to plan ahead!

Driving Routes

If coming from LFT, you will take highway 90 as it connects the venue, hotels, and airport. If coming from MSY, you can take I-10 through Baton Rouge to Lafayette or highway 90 through cajun country. Andrew prefers to take highway 90 as an accident on the I-10 Basin Bridge can cause major delays. Beware of speed limits especially in Morgan City/Patterson and Jeanerette. If driving from Texas on I-10, taking Exit 103A South 182 to Highway 90, heading towards Morgan City is the most direct route. If you’re interested in seeing some beautiful historic homes, we recommend approaching Arlington Mansion on Highway 182 (Main St) through downtown Franklin. ***Please be extra careful of your speed when driving Highway 90 in Jeanerette, the Marshalls WILL pull you over and love to hide behind bridges.***
