MSY-Latam<br />

Thinking about vacations always<br />
brightens our lives. With<br />
Thanksgiving and Christmas<br />
around the corner, we must start<br />
planning to return to our homeland to<br />
enjoy Latin American traditions and<br />
culture, see family, or simply explore<br />
the beautiful places our continent<br />
south of the United States offers.<br />
New Orleans has always been an<br />
essential portal to Latin America, and<br />
its airport offers everything you need<br />
to start your vacation at home. When<br />
making your itinerary, don’t forget<br />
that arriving early to the airport has<br />
advantages and that Louis Armstrong<br />
New Orleans International Airport<br />
offers you all the amenities, from<br />
Valet Parking and the VIP Lounge to<br />
delicious places where you can eat<br />
the last New Orleans dish or enjoy a<br />
delicious local coffee. You can even<br />
buy the cutest souvenirs from your<br />
city to take to Latin America.<br />
Here are some destinations that<br />
our readers have recently enjoyed<br />
with their itinerary.<br />
MSY - San Pedro Sula. Traveling<br />
to Honduras is very easy from New<br />
Orleans. Spirit’s direct flight takes<br />
you to San Pedro Sula in two and a<br />
half hours. From there, it is easy to<br />
explore the country and places like<br />
Utila and Tela, as the creative Felipe<br />
Estrada did a few months ago.<br />
MSY - Guatemala City. Traveling<br />
to Guatemala can be pretty<br />
economical. Several airlines offer<br />
the country of eternal spring as a<br />
destination, with a stopover in Texas<br />
and Florida, and in 5 and a half<br />
hours, you can enjoy the beautiful<br />
landscapes and spectacular weather<br />
of Guatemala. My family and I visited<br />
our relatives and relaxed in Antigua<br />
and Panajachel.<br />
MSY - Santiago. This destination<br />
may not be the most common flying<br />
out of New Orleans, but it’s time for<br />
it to be. Escaping the summer heat<br />
or the winter cold and enjoying the<br />
vineyards and mountains of Chile can<br />
be the best vacation of your life. A few<br />
months ago, Rey and Amairanny Rivas<br />
enjoyed good wine, snow-capped<br />
mountains, and the tallest building<br />
in South America in Santiago, Chile.<br />
Although it is a long trip, you can find<br />
reasonable prices. Their connection<br />
flight was in Houston.<br />
Where will you go on your next<br />
vacation? Let us know on social<br />
