New Orleans' rebuilt modern airport delivers a seamless arrival experience — our chauffeurs are there to complete it.
The new MSY terminal, completed in 2019, consolidated all airlines into a single modern building — a major improvement over the old airport's fragmented layout. Arriving passengers follow a straightforward path from gate to baggage claim to ground transportation. Our MSY airport transfer service positions your chauffeur precisely at arrivals before your bags appear.
Whether you're an Ochsner Health executive connecting from a medical conference, an Entergy board member arriving from Houston or New York, a convention attendee headed to the Morial Convention Center, or a first-time visitor ready to experience the French Quarter — our chauffeurs know every destination and the optimal I-10 route to reach it. We also navigate Mardi Gras and festival season closures that paralyze GPS navigation.
Our black car service features Mercedes S-Class sedans and Cadillac Escalades for executives, while our Sprinter vans handle conference groups arriving from MSY together.

What Our New Orleans Clients Say
Trusted by Ochsner physicians, Entergy executives, and convention attendees throughout southeastern Louisiana.
“I travel frequently for medical conferences and always use Detailed Drivers for my MSY pickups. They're in arrivals before I reach baggage claim, handle my luggage efficiently, and get me to Jefferson Highway even during peak traffic. The consistency is what I value most — I can review patient cases on the drive.”
Dr. Angela P.
Chief of Medicine, Ochsner Medical Center
“Coordinating executive airport logistics is challenging in New Orleans, especially during festival season. Detailed Drivers tracks all our executives' incoming flights, handles delays professionally, and our team arrives at 639 Loyola Avenue without the stress of I-10 traffic.”
Thomas B.
VP of Operations, Entergy Corporation
“We recommend Detailed Drivers to conference organizers for group airport transportation. Their Sprinter van service for arriving delegations is impeccably coordinated — name signs in arrivals, luggage handled, and the whole group moves together to the convention center efficiently.”
