Can't find a room in FQ, week of 4/15-4/22!
And the rooms I'm able to reserve are Very expensive! What's going on in NOLA the week of April 15? I booked a sweet package last year for the same dates but I can't come close to that this spring. Anyone hear of any discounts on rooms or flight/hotel packages? I've checked the usual places including travelzoo, AAA, jetsetter. Jetsetter has a sale going on for only 3 nights of the 5 I'm trying to book and I'm not interested in switching hotels.
Any suggestions for finding a trip package deal or rooms under $250.00 a night? Anyone see any discounts on flights out of the Northeast? Thanks in advance, NOLA Krewe!

It looks like the night of the 21st may be the problem. If you don't have to be there on the 21st, you could cut down on the price of the week's stay - or move to another hotel for the last night, even at the airport. You could head out to the countryside, go see Avery Island, etc at the end of the trip and save some money for the rest of the NOLA nights.

Then book something that you can cancel later. I tried to book something in San Francisco and rates were sky high. It turned out to be an orthopedic convention. The week before the convention the reserved/blocked hotel rooms were released and I was able to get my favorite hotel at a good rate.

You might look at piecing together two hotel stays.
Le Richelieu in the FQ has rooms WELL under your budget for 4/15, 4/16, 4/17, & 4/18 but is booked solid for 4/19, 4/20 and 4/21. Just a thought.

Looks like Bardo is correct. The problem is in the dates starting April 19th. I have not checked in Metairie but the Crown Plaza at the airport has rooms for $120.00 or so. It's a nice hotel. There may be a B&B in Marigny or in the GD but downtown hotels are booked.
