Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport

History of Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport /h2>

Plans for a new airport began in 1940 as evidence mounted that the older Shushan Airport (New Orleans Lakefront Airport) was too small. The airport was originally named Moisant

Field after daredevil aviator John Moisant, who died in 1910 in an aeroplane crash on agricultural land where the airport is now located. Its IATA code MSY was derived from Moisant Stock Yards, as Lakefront Airport retained the code NEW. In World War II, the land became a government air base. It returned to civil control after the war, and commercial service began at Moisant Field in May 1946. In September 1947, the airport was shut down as it was submerged under two feet of water in the wake of the 1947 Fort Lauderdale Hurricane's impact.

MSY served 9,785,394 passengers in 2014, exceeding for the first time in the post-Katrina era the total passenger count of 9,733,179 achieved in 2004, the last full calendar year prior to Katrina's landfall in August 2005. A new record passenger count was set by the airport in 2015. 10,673,301 passengers were served, eclipsing the earlier record of 9.9 million passengers, set in 2000.In December 2015, the New Orleans Aviation Board, along with New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu and City Council, approved a plan to build a new $598 million terminal building on the north side of the airport property with two concourses and 30 gates.Designed by world-renowned Argentine-American architect Cesar Pelli, construction on the new main terminal began in January 2016. During the construction, the scope of the project was expanded so the terminal would feature 35 gates. In March 2017, British Airways commenced nonstop service to London's Heathrow Airport on a Boeing 787. The new terminal opened in November 2019 at a cost of $1.3 billion.
