Where to start

What do you need a car for?

Tell us what the trip looks like, and we'll point you straight to the right service — from a single airport run to a standing corporate account.

01

Arriving or departing at MSY

We track your flight number, adjust the pickup when it moves, and meet you inside the terminal at baggage claim. Louis Armstrong sits about 11 miles west of downtown in Kenner, and the drive varies with I-10 traffic and event closures — which is why we build the buffer in rather than asking you to.

MSY Airport Transportation →
02

A single point-to-point trip

Dinner reservation, client meeting, a transfer between hotel and venue. One car, one chauffeur, one quoted rate.

Black Car Service →
03

A car held for a block of time

For days that will change while they happen — multi-stop meetings, site visits, a night out where the last stop is undecided. The car stays with you.

Hourly Car Service →
04

Recurring travel for a company

Billing, invoicing, standing preferences, and a named account manager who knows your executives. Accounts activate within 24 hours.

Corporate Transportation →
05

More people than one vehicle holds

Convention arrivals, wedding parties, cruise groups, incentive trips. Multiple vehicles moving on one coordinated schedule.

Group Transportation →

The standard

What you are actually reserving

A reservation is not the same thing as a request for a car. The difference shows up when something goes wrong.

Your flight is monitored, not assumed

We watch the flight in real time and move the pickup when the flight moves. A delay, an early landing, or a diverted connection does not require a phone call from you. This applies to commercial arrivals at MSY and to private aviation arrivals at the FBOs.

The rate is quoted before you ride

You know the number in advance. It does not move because it started raining, because Mardi Gras closed St. Charles, or because a convention emptied into the CBD at 5 p.m. What sets the rate is the vehicle, the duration or distance, and the time of day — not demand at the moment you need a car.

The chauffeur is assigned, vetted, and named

You receive the chauffeur's name and the vehicle before the pickup. It is a professional chauffeur in a commercially licensed and insured vehicle, assigned to you in advance. Soliciting ground transportation at MSY is illegal, and unbadged solicitors may be uninsured — a pre-arranged reservation removes that question entirely.

Someone answers

A named account manager for corporate accounts, reachable 24 hours a day. New inquiries receive a response within one business hour.

We are local

Since 2011, in this city. Where the FBO gate is, which Convention Center hall entrance to use, which French Quarter blocks a Sprinter cannot turn into, what Jazz Fest does to Esplanade at 6 p.m. That knowledge is the difference between a schedule that holds and one that does not.

One reservation, one point of contact

Multi-vehicle group moves, back-to-back airport runs, and multi-day itineraries are coordinated as a single booking — documented in advance, not reassembled by phone on the day.

MSY arrivals

We meet you inside the terminal

Your chauffeur waits at baggage claim on Level 1 with your name and assists with luggage to the vehicle. You do not go looking for the car, and you do not stand in a queue with a carry-on in the rain.

Louis Armstrong New Orleans International is roughly 11 miles west of downtown in Kenner. Flights are tracked in real time, so a delayed or early arrival moves the pickup automatically — with no call, and no charge for the airline's delay.

The fleet

Sedans, SUVs, and Sprinter vans

Capacities are firm. Luggage is the constraint that surprises people, so plan on the bag count, not the seat count.

I traveled to New Orleans for a Saints game at the Caesars Superdome and used Lagniappe for airport transportation. Pickup from MSY was on time, and the ride was comfortable and well paced. Everything felt organized even with game-day traffic.

I recently booked Lagniappe Chauffeured Services, and I must say — it was pure luxury from start to finish. The vehicle was spotless and elegant, the chauffeur was impeccably dressed and professional, and every detail reflected true class. It felt more like a VIP experience than just a car service. Highly recommended for anyone who values comfort, style, and top-level service in New Orleans

Frequently asked

Questions before you book

Straight answers to what people ask before they book.

How much does a car service in New Orleans cost?

Rates depend on the vehicle, the distance or the number of hours reserved, and the time of day. Every trip is quoted as a flat rate before you ride, so the number does not change with traffic, weather, or demand. Send your itinerary for a firm quote.

How far in advance should I book?

Standard bookings are best made at least 24 hours ahead. Same-day and last-minute requests are handled case by case — call the office and we'll tell you straight away if it can be done.

Do you meet me inside the airport at MSY?

Yes. Your chauffeur waits at baggage claim on Level 1 with a sign bearing your name and assists with luggage to the vehicle.

What happens if my flight is delayed?

Flights are tracked in real time, so a delayed or early arrival moves your pickup automatically, at no extra charge for the airline's delay.

How many people can you carry?

From 1 to 14 passengers depending on the vehicle — a sedan seats 3, an SUV seats 6, and a Sprinter van seats 8 to 14. Bag count is usually the real constraint, so mention luggage when you request a quote.

Do you offer hourly or as-directed service?

Yes. A car and chauffeur can be held for a block of time for multi-stop meetings, site visits, or evenings where the itinerary isn't fixed in advance.

Can my company set up a corporate account?

Yes. Corporate accounts get a named account manager, standing preferences, and consolidated billing. Accounts typically activate within 24 hours of inquiry.

Do you serve cities outside New Orleans?

Yes. Beyond New Orleans and the parishes, we coordinate chauffeured service across 20 markets in the U.S. and Europe — see the full list in the destinations section above.
