Di - being an experienced traveller to NOLA, can you give any details on the best way to get from the airport to the FQ and back?  
  
I've seen: 
Cab is $33 for 1-2 people, $14 per person for 3 or more. 
Shuttle is $20 one-way, $38 round trip, depending on how many people & where going it can be 60-90 minutes though 
Bus is $2, but you cross town lines and have to change busses, some of the areas are a little sketchy after dark

Perhaps we can put up a cab-sharing thread.
