MSY-New Orleans airport to French Quarter Area?

[Timeshare Von]

Do you need to call ahead to reserve a cab from the airport to the resort or are there plenty already there to chose from when you walk out of the terminal? Same goes from the resort back to the airport? Thanks.

Calling ahead at the airport is useless as they use a cab stand system, and there are plenty around in the cue. We were about 10 back in the line and waited less than 5 minutes when we arrived Saturday afternoon.

As for the ride back, you will need to call for a cab when you need it. They are pretty quick. We cabbed into the French Quarter last night for dinner due to the thunderstorms and it was pretty quick for pick up at the timeshare and we were able to flag one at the restaurant for the return trip.

As my hubby said this morning "Damn there are a lot of cabs here!!"

If you need a cab to return after being at a restaurant, just ask them when you are paying your check. Most places are happy to either flag one down or call for you.
