Flight
The closest airport to Vicksburg is an hour's drive away in Jackson, Mississippi (the Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport or "JAN"). Alternatively, the New Orleans airport is about a 3 and a half hour drive from Vicksburg. While in Vicksburg, transportation to all wedding events will be provided from Anchuca, the Duff Green, and the Mulberry. We have arranged for transportation to and from the Jackson airport by bus at specific times on Friday and Sunday: - On Friday, October 13, the bus will leave the airport around 3pm, as most of the flights that day arrive around 2pm. - On Sunday, October 15, the bus will leave Vicksburg around 11am (depending on pickup locations) heading to the airport so that guests could make any flight scheduled to leave at or later than 2pm. Closer to time, we will send out a request for a headcount and flight info, so please let us know at that time if you're going to be on board! Car services are limited in Mississippi, so finding an uber or taxi from the airport may not be possible without advance booking. Rental cars may be picked up at the airports (see sections below).
