Google maps show I 10 at 12 hrs something and shows I 20 at 11 something. Both get off the interstate and hit smaller highways but looks like straight shot. And you would have your POV for the evenings!

If you take I-10 across Louisiana, you may want to take I-12 at Baton Rouge, it meets up with I-10 on the other side, but cuts about 1 - 1.5 hours off the trip since you don't go all the way down to New Orleans. Not gonna lie, it took me about 5 trips to figure that one out... Give me a break, I'm Navy and land nav is not my specialty! Ha ha!

LT Brad McInnis - I'd avoid I-10 at all costs if you're planning on making the trip soon (like this week). Tropical Storm Cindy is having her way with them down that way right now. WO1 (Join to see)

MAJ (Join to see) - It just missed us here in Houston. I think we had 10 minutes of light rain, very little wind. Hope all those in the path are safe.

Driving should take about 12 hours. I-20 to US-80 to AL-28/10/106/189/US-84. That'll take you around Selma and Montgomery and right into Rucker. The nearest airports that are serviced by airlines are probably going to be Montgomery or PCB. They're smaller airports though so they're going to cost more to fly through than someplace like Atlanta or Birmingham.
