New Orleans Airport Reopens Today, but Barely
Tuesday, September 13, 2005
KENNER, La. Roy Williams, director of the Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, spent most of yesterday talking with the media. Between interviews, Williams checked his e-mail and cell phone in hopes of learning which airlines might resume service at the nation's 41st-largest airport.Armstrong International, located 20 minutes from downtown New Orleans, officially reopens for regular passenger service today. But it will handle only two flights to and from Memphis, courtesy of Northwest Airlines. Delta Air Lines said last night it would resume limited service on Friday but offered no details. The airport normally has about 350 flights a day. But with the loss of convention business and vacationers, Williams doesn't think the airport will resume full operations for nearly 18 months.Some people in his office, he says, are betting it will take as much as five years before the airport is back to normal."So many conventions and business meetings are going to go to other cities next year. Many people are going to be concerned about coming here and go elsewhere for a while," Williams said. "But we're ready."Yesterday, representatives from several airlines surveyed conditions to determine when -- or if -- they should resume service. The airlines included Southwest, Delta and Northwest. Southwest is the airport's dominant carrier, with 57 flights a day. In a typical year, some 10 million travelers pass through the airport. Now, military workers and cleaning crews dominate the terminals. The arrival and departure monitors were flashing the word "testing" next to the airlines' names in the spots that would have normally shown flight times and gate numbers.
