If you are departing from terminal C, and have TSA Precheck, get dropped off at door 1.
They’re working on it but let’s face it-it’s a maze right now, construction for 2 years. Fly JFK if you can.
I'm always nice and calm in he plane but when I look down the windows I am scared of heights.
When you're inevitably trapped here the Brussel sprout pizza from Crust isn't too bad. The employees at the one next to Gate C16 are real nice too.
Perhaps the PANYNJ ought to show NYC some respect and upgrade LGA. ITS A THIRD WORKD AIRPORT IN A FIRST WORLD CITY! This is a disgrace and insult to NYC.
Very impressed with the new Delta Terminal. Plenty of seats and electrical outlets. Free iPads to use while you wait and decent food options. Makes delays less aggravating.
ℋumorousJune 7, 2012If you take a Viagra while waiting in the security queue, it will still work by the time you get to the body scanner! ☺
The upgrades to this place are spectacular! One of the best airports now!
Did you know, on most airlines, you can get your boarding pass on your smart phone? Save time, paper and money by not having to print one on your next flight! :-) happy & safe travels!
You can transfer to/from the M60 bus at Astoria Blvd station on the N or Q subway lines. Beats getting off/on the bus in Manhattan and sitting in traffic the whole time!
Dee BurnsMarch 29, 2022New renovations are great. Good food options, clean and pretty restrooms, good access to phone plug ins.
Angela WJanuary 23, 2013Hungry? Check out Artichoke in terminal C and try their margarita pizza! Best $5 airport meal ever.
Nelson BJune 19The remodeling they have done to this airport is nice, looks clean and modern, it's probably in my top 5 airports.
The M60 bus picks up and drops off here. Cheapest way to get into or out of the city ($2.75 - one swipe on the metro card!) Allocate at least an hour to get to or from the airport.
LaGuardia is the smallest of the 3 major airports in NYC but the closest to Manhattan. The Delta terminal has lots of iPads on their waiting lounge. Pretty cool.
Brandon M QueenOctober 10, 2010If you ever get to the airport like 2:30 early, you don't have to rush to your terminal, take some time to walk around and enjoy yourself. If you are with family and friends, just have a blast!!
Clifford RyanJuly 16, 2013Get a MetroPass at the airport (or $2.50 in quarters) and get on the Q33 bus to Roosevelt Ave Bus Terminal (last stop). Transfer to the 7, E, F, M or R train, depending on where you are headed.
Aside from the new Delta terminal, this is the most depressing, dingiest looking airport in the country. It'll take years for a makeover.
The pizza place in the delta terminal that replaced sbarros is awesome. Probably one of the top 5 in all of new York and long island. Funny it's in an airport.
Konstantin PoletayevAugust 30, 2013To get a free wi-fi just open a safari agree with with offer and set up hotels.com from AppStore. Then open it and wow, you have an Internet!
we live for the fountain!!! honestly the renovation has made me a get to the airport 2 hours early type of person
If you're returning a rental car better plan a lot of extra time. Need to take 2 busses and then walk quite a bit, especially if you're going to terminal D.
StephanieSeptember 24, 2013Vegan food options are available at the Cabi vendors. They have vegan "turkey" sandwiches with Veganaise among other things.
Allow a little extra time. Road exits keep changing. Construction makes things a little complicated.
If you bought liquor/liquids at an int'l airport & have a connecting flight in the US, put it in your checked luggage when you claim it! You go thru security again and they will take it if you don't.
At Terminal B? Get an Auntie Anne's pretzel - mallrat style. You won't regret it!
TSA Pre Check is the best, just make sure it's printed on your ticket.
Liza Casatelli MarianiApril 13, 2015They now have new iPad stations where you can even order something to eat or drink right from the iPad!!- Eric KwiatkowskiSeptember 9, 2011When you're leaving beat the line by either hitting up the cab stand to the far right or walking around the building to the left to the lot where the cabs originate from.
The Delta terminal is the only nice one. Get a window seat and you might get some Instagram worthy pics of Manhattan.
Paul TroupeAugust 17, 2014Best way to get out is through the metro. Cab line is long. Get here early, even though your flight will be late
I'm liking the new walkway that connects terminal D to C...very refreshing. Now time for NYPA to get the funds together for an outer facelift...especially to American's terminal.
DjMLUVApril 14, 2014Gonna be here a while? Check out the free video mixes on deltas iPads
Another favorite launch and landing pad for the NY Cosmos, LGA welcomed the team back from their 2013 NASL Soccer Bowl Championship victory! If you see the team on their way to a game, snap a pic!
"I love flying through this airport! Complimentary New York Times for everyone!" (said the girl who I watched steal one from outside a shop)
Check out the Delta Airlines upgrade! The restaurants and boarding waiting areas are stocked with iPads #cool
- If you're a visitor like me and take a car from Bklyn to LaG, look back to the left for a great view of Manhattan.
Lines for the taxis are horrendous. Boyfriend suggested Uber, SO convenient &quick! Download the app& use the promo code ds89j, & it credits you $20 to use towards your fare, so cheaper than cab, too
Kareemah BattsJune 7, 2013Physically disabled, you better speak up and walk to the front of the line. There is no medical assist or family line in this airport. no one will offer you a chair while you wait for bomb check
Rafael AlencarJuly 24, 2013If you are traveling alone and want to go to Manhattan get the Airporter bus, it's only $13, can pay with cash, credit card and debit!
Don't always enter the priority line. Sometimes the security line is longer for priority, go in the general line - it may be faster. You can see the line so it's not that you are betting blind.
Jeanne Schmidt HerronJune 7, 2013Travel with a fun person, there are a lot of weirdos out there. Keep it real, laugh a lot. Flying Southwest is pretty sweet as well, saves on $.- For those like me who don't like traditional breakfast items, the Chinese restaurant in the food court area serves rice, veggies & spicy chicken @ 7 am. Lovely!
Need some EDM music during your flight. Download the DJ BIJAL iPhone app. Works without wifi or data connections. Great for flights. http://bit.ly/BIJALIPhoneApp
Andrew RivkinOctober 7, 2014The centurion lounge is amazing. One of the best airport lounges I've been too.
CaraAugust 22, 2017If you'd said your prayers and been nicer to your elders maybe you wouldn't be stuck in the hellhole that's the old terminals of LaGuardia. Good luck navigating this nonsensical place.
