Keep us posted. At least the MSY-IAH flights will fly... unlike the CHQ MSY-CLE flights............
My first ever trip to MSY was three weeks after Katrina hit. I don't know if Pat O's was open, but Tropical Isle sure was. They didn't have any air-conditioning, and the Quarter had a ripe smell of diesel, rotting garbage, and even less-appealing odors... but they had Ice, and Ice-Cold Hand-Grenades. ^
