MSY is Huge for CO. but as it plays now, us CO'ers are stuck at the three seat bar near security. HP and B6 are gone. maybe they could do a PC in that area. that would be GREAT!
The bar in the SC is also 3 seats and you have to leave room for people walking over for drinks.
The staff there is really nice. I think that they know most of the regulars by name and will miss the PC members who use the SC.
MSY is huge for CO. The tourism is there but most folks don't realize the number of pax generated by the oil rig servicing businesses, which is why there are about the same number of flights each day MSY-IAH as IAH-EWR. Tomorrow there are 12 flights, 11 mainlline, with about 1500 seats. It's one of CO's larger non-hubs.
