Where should we meet for a pickup at MSY?
MSY’s dedicated airport roadway signs separate the arrivals curb from departures and parking. Curbside pickup is allowed only as a moving, immediate handoff: the passenger should be outside at a specific visible position before the driver follows arrivals signage onto the terminal frontage.
