Baton Rouge Metropolitan / Ryan Field Airport

If you traveling to deep in the Bayou you may choose to fly into Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport. Similar to many airports in the US its history includes years of military service. The airport dates back to WWII, when it was known to the locals as Harding Field, then a name change in 1954 to Ryan Field Airport and then finally in 1981 the airport was officially named Baton Rogue Metropolitan Airport / Ryan Field. So if you want to stroll along the banks of the Great Mississippi River, delight in the tastes of Cajun Country, or wander around the grounds of the Southern Plantations your first stop into Louisiana will probably be Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport!
