Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport
This will be a popular airport to use because based on our experiences flying here they usually have cheaper flights with no stops. However, this airport is about less than 2 hours away from Hattiesburg, MS and about 2 hours and 30 mins from our venue in SoSo, MS. With this airport choice a rental car will be needed. Also, if you would like to explore New Orleans this might be a good option to check out this city!
Flight
Hattiesburg-Laurel Regional Airport
This will be the closest airport to Hattiesburg, Laurel or Soso, MS. We have had family fly into this airport and it can be more expensive depending on where you are flying from. This airport is TINY so you will most likely have multiple stops. However, if you don't like driving (like Kaitlyn) this would be a good option to get into town quick! Please look into rental cars before booking flights here, enterprise does rental cars for this airport. Their number is 601-544-0028.
Flight
Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport
This is another airport option if you would like to cut down on driving. This airport is about 1.5 hours from Hattiesburg, MS and less than 2 hours from Soso/Laurel, MS. This airport is medium size and we have had good experiences at this airport. There are not many lines and they should have multiple rental car companies.
Flight
Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport
This is another option just based on where you are flying from. We have never flown in or out of Jackson, MS so we don't have much experience. When we have looked it has been a bit more expensive than New Orleans. This airport is 2 hours from Hattiesburg and 1.5 hours from Soso and Laurel, MS.
