Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Louis Armstrong New Orleans Intl. Airport (MSY) to TRI last minute?
Booking your trip from MSY to Tri-Cities Regional Airport (TRI) at the last minute could save you a tidy sum if you stumble on a real bargain.

If you’d rather err on the side of caution, book well in advance of the date you want to leave. Keep in mind that some of the best deals can be found up to 12 months in advance. If your preferred carrier hasn’t released its fares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
