New Orleans trips are built around festivals, food and big events — Mardi Gras, Jazz Fest, Saints games at the Caesars Superdome and conventions at the Morial Convention Center. A van gets the group from the airport side of Metairie into the city and out to plantation country together.
Our New Orleans location is tied to Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) and, like every Nation Van Rentals location, offers 24/7 customer support with pickup available 24/7. Rent one van or up to 15 in a single request, subject to availability.

Driving in and around New Orleans
- The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway to the Northshore is a toll bridge. Tolls incurred during a rental are billed at the actual amount plus a $25 administrative fee per rental or consolidated toll invoice (toll policy).
- Parade routes close major streets during Carnival season, and French Quarter streets are narrow with little parking — plan drop-offs rather than driving through.
- Hurricane season officially runs June 1 through November 30.
