That's awesome news tennis1400. British Airways just adjusted flights at PHL which freed up a 787 for next Spring. Hopefully, that's the plane headed our way.

It's going to be a BA flight to LHR. This was the third attempt the airport has made at BA. The first attempt went to AUS, the second to SJC, and finally MSY. This is a very big deal for New Orleans because it puts MSY within one connection of most of Europe and Middle East.

Any idea when they are announcing and I'm assuming flight will start next spring ?

I'd assume before the 12th, that's Ahmad's last day and this flight is his baby. The PHL-LHR flight ends in March, so I'd assume early April start.

Makes sense!1 i actualy wondered what he was going to announce to go out with a bang so this seems like perfect end to his tenure!

He will go out with a bang for sure! I hope we find someone like him to replace him!

Wow...look at those projects on Tulane Avenue! Hopefully they start soon.
A few questions:
1. So, they are tearing down the Shell gas station kiosk? I thought I read they weren't?
2. The "Tulane Commons" building shows 2 options. What's that about?
3. Anyone know anything about the "Culture Bar"?

Now, if they would just freaking finish paving, more projects would come!!!

Looks like there's a Hampton Inn going on the property where Sean Cummings proposed his condo project.

Haha serves the nimbys right. They turned down a beautiful, cutting edge building and now they get a Hampton Inn. Lmaooo

Im assuming there are multiple options for redevelopment being considered so I think any designs being shown are still very preliminary but thought Id share nonetheless!

no idea about the other two

btw last night I noticed workers at 1600 Canal at 130 am. So they are definitely working hard to get this thing open by the end of the year.
