Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport is the gateway to one of the most exciting and energetic domestic cities. With a passenger-friendly environment, MSY welcomes millions of travelers each year from around the world.
During the 1930s, it became obvious the current municipal airport located on the south shore of Lake Pontchartrain was no longer large enough to accommodate the city’s growing transportation needs. Expansion of the existing airport was considered too costly, so the City of New Orleans created the Aviation Division of the Department of Public Property to coordinate with the Civil Aviation Authority to establish a new airport.
