How do I get to NAS JRB New Orleans?

Where do I park?
There are two primary parking areas, accessible through the NAS JRB gate off of Barriere Road and through the Blue Gate entrance to the base, which is just south of the main gate on Hwy. 23. Guests will board FREE shuttles at the parking areas to be taken to the flight line entry control points for the air show. (Shuttle space is limited so large strollers may not fit and will need to be left in your vehicle). Entrance through the main gate is available ONLY to military members, base residents and base employees with proper identification.

Please note that handicapped parking is limited and will be available on first-come, first-serve basis.
