Southwest Airlines recognizes that tourism and convention business has been, and will continue to be, a major stimulus for the New Orleans economy. We hope that other corporations and organizations also will choose New Orleans as a destination for their conventions and conferences.

Southwest Airlines has been serving New Orleans for 27 years. We are part of this community, and we will continue to be a partner in the rebuilding of New Orleans tourism .

Our Customer's demand for travel to and from New Orleans is strong, and we are pleased to support New Orleans by adding more flights.

Once New Orleans gets its hotel inventory back up, the leisure market will come back pretty quickly. The bad news is that meeting planners who book group (meetings and conventions and package tours) business years ahead of time, will steer clear of New Orleans between August and October for years.
