Two part answer, the second of which I apologize in advance for spending your money.

1) As best I can recall, if you schedule a flight out about 5 PM or later you should be fine. The afternoon of the second day is mostly an opportunity for the student to sit in on a couple of classes.

2) But, you are in New Orleans. I understand she is missing school, one of the parents might be missing work, etc. If you can stay the extra night and fly out the next day sometime, maybe mid-afternoon, it gives you more of a chance to explore New Orleans, including some of the off campus areas the students will take advantage of while they are there such as Audubon Park, Magazine Street, and the Oak/Maple Street areas. Plus, of course, enjoy more of the food. But as I say, that is an extra expense for hotel and meals, of course. Just a suggestion.

That is assuming, especially for #1, that they don’t change the agenda much. I suspect they won’t because they do realize people have to get back for school and work.
