Airport Pick-up Service

We can arrange transportation to and from the airport with a cab driver who meets our guests outside your airline's baggage claim with a "The Burgundy B&B" sign. He charges $34 for 1 or 2 persons, $12 per person for 3rd and 4th persons.

Public Transportation from the Airport

The Airport Express Bus E2 leaves the airport about every 15 minutes and costs $1.60 exact fare. It takes about 45 minutes to the Central Business District, Elks Pl. and Tulane Ave (www.jeffersontransit.org). [Katrina update: The E2 only goes to Carrollton and Tulane on weekends now, where you have to transfer to the Tulane bus to Elks Place. It therefore takes quite a bit longer than before all in all! Also, E2 no longer runs as often. Check the web site!] From there you can call and I can usually pick you up. If not, you would walk 2 blocks to Canal and N. Rampart and take the St. Claude bus to St. Roch (about 5 minutes), only 2 blocks from the B&B.
