DO you have any experience with taking 71 out of Alexandria to 190 then that over to I10? My cousin was telling me about that route he said it would shave some time off.

My advice: Next time, fly into Pensacola. Its actually closer and easier to get to GS/OB from Pcola than Mobile.
What time does your flight land?
Taking the Ferry from DI to Fort Morgan might be quicker.Carl

Thanks Carl. Wife booked the flight and I'm sure it was "cheaper" to fly into Mobile as I'm also sure the property owner told her it was easier to fly into Pcola. We'll be getting in early afternoon on Saturday. I'm hoping the Mobile traffic won't be too bad with the weekend. I hadn't considered the Ferry but will give that a look. Originally Posted by CarlF

Traffic on Airport Blvd. on Saturday afternoon will be nuts but once you make it to I-65, it should be smooth sailing.

I sure do. Taking 71 out of Alexandria, wont shave much time. Stay on I-49 to US 190 in Opelousus then get on 190, this saves about 15 miles. You have an option on getting to I-10, either LA 415 west of the Mississippi river or I-110 in Baton Rouge. The I-10 bridge is a fricking nightmare from 3:30 to 6:00pm, I go into BR and take I-110 almost every time. Originally Posted by Psychobilly

If you'd rather not deal with Airport Blvd traffic, you could leave the airport and take Schillinger Rd to I-10 Originally Posted by Blueboy

Current plan: Leave airport onto 56 to I65 to I10 to 83 to 180. How long of a drive is that?

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
