Simply take the AirTrain to the car rental center. On the way, make sure to stop at the TWA Hotel in terminal 5 for some amazing aviation history, a rooftop pool overlooking the runways, and an old Constellation! But it can still be a hassle. During rush hour, it could take 2 hours to get from the city to JFK. As travel returns post-Covid, you can expect to see this more often. The real issue comes when you have to park the car.
If you thought anything in NYC was a ripoff, wait until you get to the airport parking lot. They do fill up early, so book ahead. At that point, Uber Helicopters can literally be cheaper than a normal Uber, no joke.
They also tend to know the best shortcuts and how to navigate traffic as efficiently as possible. The trouble is that the line for taxis at the airport can be very long. Then you still need to pay the fare to NYC. No longer. I mean nice like beautiful. And when the new metro lines to the airport are finished, you can expect a consistent 30 minute transit to the airport.
Well, all this reconstruction has made parking a little difficult. LGA has very limited space which is already used as efficiently as possible on a good day. Its two runways and limited taxiway space simply limit throughput. This is especially true considering that you need to take a bus from the nearest metro stations to get to the airport — for now.
When the new metro line is compete, travel time from the city to LGA will take only 30 minutes! The upside is you can walk right across to the terminal. Unfortunately, the only way to LGA by public transportation is by bus.
And no one in New York cares. There are always pretzels. JFK is a major hub that serves basically every destination in the world, including Iceland you used to have to fly from Boston. If you want to fly to Europe direct, fly from JFK. LaGuardia is the dark horse of NYC airports. That means the subway lines stop about a mile from the airport. If you want to get to LGA via public transit you have to take the subway, walk a few blocks, transfer to a bus, then hopefully get out at the right terminal.
Funny how that works out. Until then, get ready for construction delays and expensive cab fares. LGA serves both international and domestic destinations. LGA is big and flies everywhere. LGA is really really spread out. The one exception to my Newark hate is the Newark Airport Express shuttle bus, which is the best way to get from Newark to Manhattan.
This marvel of janky bus travel once got me from Penn Station in Manhattan, a minute walk from Times Square to my terminal at Newark in 17 minutes. I know that sounds impossible, and it is—but it happened. Whenever you drive into the city of New York from the New Jersey side, you have to pay a toll.
When you take a taxi, that toll gets slapped onto the price of your fare. Both ways. LaGuardia's Terminal B has nearly finished an impressive remodel, and updates are in progress for Terminal C, which will be the home base for all Delta flights. You'll be able to take a cab the eight or so miles to the airport in less than 30 minutes, depending on traffic and your location. How to Get There: LaGuardia is one of the most difficult airports to access if you're using public transit, mainly because you will need to take a bus.
However, as with most New York City journeys, traffic is the deciding factor in cost, and if you're traveling at rush hour, the meter will soar well above that price bracket. Similarly, Uber and Lyft pricing will increase during peak times.
More than 70 airlines , including many international carriers, fly to and from John F. If your stay is based in lower Brooklyn anywhere lower than Williamsburg or eastern Queens, JFK will be your closest airport. New York's most famous gateway is a preferred choice for many because of its lounges, shops, and dining options.
JFK is also the home base for JetBlue. The airline has taken over Terminal 5 or T5 as they call it and decked it out in blue. How to Get There: JFK is one of the easiest options for those traveling to the airport via public transit. There are two options for navigating your way into the city. At Jamaica, you'll be able to board the E, J, and Z trains. Preload a MetroCard to ensure easy access.
