Pay attention and check your gate often. Many changes in Delta Terminal C today.
Courtney BoltonDecember 31, 2011Often the TSA scanners break. Be sure to allow extra time, esp during the holidays.
Easily the worst airport on Earth. I'd never fly in or out of LGA again except for the great prices to and from Denver. Terminal D is a little better than the others.
Tale off your shoes, or at least unlace them, right after the first TSA ID check. It helps speed up the process.
we scrawl our names across runways when airplanes sleep / oh don't forget me when you fall asleep
Andrw PasadenaJuly 19, 2013Way easier and faster to check in at this Airport than the JFK... Choose LGA!
Quick check in and security lines! Construction around the airport makes traffic a nightmare
So far have had zero luck with food delivery through iPads. First time I tried they never showed up and this time they didn't have what I wanted and it was too late to do anything else. Hungry.
The Southwest terminal here is depressing & unacceptable. There's no reason an airport in one of the world's major cities should be this janky. Tip - buy food beforehand because there's not much here.
Jonathan KahnNovember 8, 2011Many third world countries have airports that are cleaner, more spacious, and more efficient.
Travis OlsonFebruary 22, 2010If you're ever at LGA, remember to pick up gummi bears from a Roundy's in Minneapolis and then forget them in your bag. It is awesome.
If flying Delta, carry empty water bottle through security and refill at water dispenser near last security checkpoint.
There's an Artichoke pizza in the food court in Delta terminal C... The more you know.
Do NOT take SuperShuttle to get anywhere from the airport. It may be less pricey but you pay for it with a wait that takes as long as your flight was.

Delta terminal needs better food options (get a food chain in there), but there's lots of outlets
Traffic is bad due to construction but this is still the easiest NYC airport to get to from Manhattan
There's now pre-check lanes in both Terminals C and D.
More convenient & quicker than both EWR & JFK. Nevertheless, Trump called this airport "third world."
Roslyn Fulton-DahlieJune 27, 2012Be nice to your gate agent: you never know when an upgrade might happen
You should fly one of those big winged metal things. Their amazing!!
Don't lip off to the security guards otherwise you'll get the back scatter!!- Joe Biden said it best when he said this place is like a third-world country.
New Cibo food area by gates 5-8 is the move if crowded by main food court.
E KMay 14, 2012Delta terminal C requires extra shuttle bus- make sure to allocate extra.time for that!
Best views of Manhattan come while flying into here from the south and at night.
Miss your flight? KAYAK on your phone can get you booked on the next flight in minutes.
Terminal C is a food (and alcohol desert). Unless you like auntie annie's and 3-day old sandwiches, you better eat before hand and hope you don't get stranded.
Bennett BontaMay 18, 2013Line for a taxi here is HUGE! But go by fast. You'll spend more time looking for other taxi places.
Pro tip: please wear deodorant when flying. Your seat buddy will thank you for it!
Give yourself extra time on Fridays, very busy, very crowded!
New B Terminal is disappointing. It’s fake nice and still uncomfortably congested.
117exploreNovember 3, 2013NO breakfast or any food or drink before security, don't arrive early under the assumption you can sit and wait with a cup of coffee.

Reminder if taking cab to LGA and flying Delta. Cabbie needs your terminal info.
Reliable airport transportation: Go!AirlinkNYC. Better than Super Shuttle! Just $18!
Upgraded seating and food, free iPad terminals and laptop stations everywhere - well done @Delta
