What people say
Brandon Roertgen
"The originating station for train #1, Amtrak serves the New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal. NOUPT is located right next door to the homes of the Pelicans (NBA) and Saints (NFL) and about a 15-20 minute walk to Bourbon Street.
Walk?! Fret not, there are connections to the New Orleans Streetcar system near the station.
Flying into Louis Armstrong International Airport? There is public transit from the airport to the train station, but plan for anywhere between 30 mins and an hour to make the trip.
NOUPT also serves Amtrak’s City of New Orleans (to Chicago via Jackson, MS & Memphis) and Crescent (to New York via Birmingham, AL, Atlanta & Charlotte) routes as well as the Mardi Gras (to Mobile - coming soon!). "
