The updated symbol, a Fleur de Lis, is clean and streamlined with lines suggesting a plane taking flight—a celebration of movement, progress and connection. With origins that span cultures and continents, the Fleur de Lis has historically symbolized beauty, nobility, strength and rebirth—all attributes that align with New Orleans’ cultural identity and the airport’s role as a gateway to possibility.
The new color palette incorporates elements inspired by architecture, nature and food—key aspects of New Orleans’ identity that resonate with the public.
The Airport is named after Louis Armstrong and his name is featured on the top line standing alone in a place of prominence.
The unveiling comes at a pivotal time for the airport and the city, as New Orleans gears up to host thousands of visitors for Super Bowl LIX. The new brand underscores MSY’s commitment to delivering a world-class travel experience that stays true to the city’s legacy of hospitality and vibrancy.
