Bloomberg TelevisionJuly 19, 2012It may not have the pope, but at 680 acres in size, LaGuardia is big enough to fit SIX Vatican Cities.
Chris KennedyMay 2, 2022Terminal D has lots of security staff to help you get on your way. Trouble is; they are all trying to sell a $100 upgrade to get through a very very long security line caused by lack of staff.
Delta terminal is actually pretty nice, iPads galore is a cool touch and some decent food options.
Ordering Uber at LGA after a Delta flight hasn’t been easy lately due to the constant construction. They have implemented a passenger pick up section so head there.
Don DiamantOctober 25, 2016Coming here from Cleveland dear God civilization finally charging ports food and drink yay!
David TartaroOctober 30, 2011Check in on your phone and skip the line! There is a kiosk line all the way to the left.
Comfortable and modern terminals. Decent food and drink to be had.
Derek SchoeniApril 2, 2013So much better than JFK. Show up early, security can bottleneck quickly at busy times.
Beatriz VenturiOctober 10, 2014Use the metro or a shuttle. I usually use the dial 7, it never fails!
At the Delta terminal, get food and drinks delivered to you off iPads and swipe your credit card right into the table. Pretty slick.
LC AresJuly 4, 2014To Go from terminal A to C was an ordeal. No indications, personnel is hard to understand. You have to leave security, take the "B route bus" at ground transportation. Reenter security again at Term C
Becky DDecember 17, 2011If flying delta to chicago or DC do not get dropped of at the Delta terminal, you will have to take a delta bus or jump in a cab to get to the Delta shuttle. At the Marine air terminal.
They just added nice booths with individual outlets and upgraded the food in the Delta section. So nice now!
Since when is there an Artichoke in the US Airways Terminal?!? Now you can have your favorite hangover food while you are hungover at the airport.
Will BradleyOctober 14, 2012A Boeing 737 equipped with AA's new First Class equipment. A huge improvement over the antiquated S80
ESTHERJuly 13, 2016Easy to get to gates but it is weird you had to take your own bags to put in plane.
Bloomberg TVJuly 25, 2012You may not see the pope, but at 680 acres in size, LaGuardia is big enough to fit SIX Vatican Cities.
Go to D8 to the Sam Adams stand and ask Manny for a dog with onions made fresh! Best Dog Ever!!
Melonee GainesFebruary 11, 2014I'm still appalled when I come to an airport with no free Wi-Fi. Save that $7.95 for a sandwich and you may need to add to that.
Watch out for Central Terminal, concourse B (airtran). It is the shittiest concourse I have seen in my life. Don't miss the wall of rust in the mens room.
There are water refilling stations at LGA! Don't spend $8 on a bottle of water. Bring an empty water bottle and fill it up.
Michael L. FrenchSeptember 30, 2024I am pleasantly surprised at the updates at New York’s LaGuardia Airport ✈️
☀Día☀May 5, 2012When the JetBlue Gate Agent tells you to stand clear of the podium, or jet-bridge entrance, -DO IT!
KibooAugust 11, 2011If you're planning a last minute summer vacation, check out cheap travel sites like Travelocity.com, or ones just for students like StudentUniverse.com. It could even get you started on spring break.
Looking for somewhere to sit in the B Gates? Try the seats next to B1 behind the glass across from the panini shop. Nice seats and very quiet.
If your plane leaves from Terminal C, there's a shuttle bus necessary to get to your gate. Add an additional 5-7 min.
Terminal B has no real food options beyond security. So eat before coming through.
Crust in. Terminal D is great for pizza and wine. Plus charging ports every where!
Unclaimed baggage is melted down and formed into food court sporks
If you need a car service, www.cabofthefuture.com is great... I always use a yellow cab to go home from the airport, but on the way there I sometimes use a car and Tom Brennan rocks!
If you ate flying delta - make sure to pick the security line on the left. The one in the right shares a guard with the sky priority line which means it moves twice as slow
Randal CooperJune 15, 2014Hi everyone! Hope you got here early! Be patient, take your picture with the hologram.
Try the iPad ordering at the Empire Tavern. Just wash your hands afterwards.
DjordjeJuly 17, 2015Probably the worst airport in the United States, or even in the western world. Joe Biden's comparation of LaGuardia to a third world country is the most on point comment he has ever made.
Angela KordekJune 16, 2011The United gate area has mice, have seen 6 in the last 5 min. Don't put your bags or food on the floor, unless you want friends of course!
There's a special place in hell for airports who don't provide free Wi-fi.
Laur Lo SkiNovember 25, 2014They've really improved LGA since I've flown out of there last! It looks very nice. Baggage claim however is still slow as hell! They do check your baggage claim slips now which is an improvement
The Centurion Lounge wins the pre-security lounge wars at LGA. Use your Amex Platinum Card or $50 to get in.- If someone outside the airport offers to drive you into the city in his windowless white van...decline.
- Need the washroom after landing? Wait til you get to baggage. Equally gross bit often less crowded.
Food options are very limited after security so make sure to get some food from food court a level below. Security usually takes 5 to 10 minutes

"Best way to fly in and out of new york. It's like a small town airport (if that small town was mostly populated by rich business folks)."
