Baton Rouge Help!!!
 
I am in the midst of planning a trip to Baton Rouge for a weekend coming up in the near future. Does anyone know if there is an airline that does direct flights to Baton Rouge? Also, any tips on what to do there for a weekend stay.

I appreciate any help!

Delta and American fly into Baton Rouge.

Eat at Mike Anderson's!!

checkout the Baton Rouge CVB, and you will find several suggestions for places to see in BR. Interested in Naval history? Visit the destroyer USS Kidd and museum.

The Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville, near BR, is supposedly haunted.
If you need for some reason to stay near the BR airport, the new Hilton Garden Inn is nice.

Continental and Northwest also fly directly into BTR.

I'd stay at the downtown Sheraton. There are some interesting museums and casinos downtown, although I feel that most of BR is somewhat sleepy at night compared to most similarly-sized cities.

Direct flights from WHERE?

I am coming from Orlando. I noticed that the only non-stop flight is into New Orleans...just curious if there were any non-stop flights to BR. Thanks for all the great info!
