If you're travelling or arriving to LGA factor 2.5x more time to get to and from the airport due to the construction work currently going on.
LGA has made vast improvements from the time Biden called it a "third world country" There's still a long way to go, but some terminals are fantastic now with improved dining and restrooms, esp Term C
John HowardApril 5, 2019Lots of construction and a ways to go. Food is pricey, it is NY so expect that. When finished this will be a great AIRPORT. Maybe in 2021.
Marie La RueDecember 16, 2018Dreaded my 6am visit to sad, depressing Terminal B... discovered they had completed food court renovations! Enjoyed Irving Coffee Roasters. Even got help checking in my bag. Getting to LGA still awful
There are multiple taxi stands. Everyone from your flight will go to the nearest one and stand in line for an hour. Be savvy and take a 5min walk to the *next* stand which will usually have no line.
Jenny KJuly 25, 2014Air Canada terminal is small but cozy. Excellent purified water filling station for bottles so bring your Sigg/Nalgene etc.
Cecily McCulloughMarch 18, 2018Don’t count on TSA precheck here some days they decide to close it, and just yell at you instead of explain why.
Love the new renovations, but let’s be honest. An airport as busy as LGA will experience issues with the weather sneezes.
FlightCenter.comJanuary 3, 2012TSA TIP #3 Remove your laptop(s) and shoes/belts while waiting in line for the x-ray machines and carry them in your hands to be ready for the bins, remember laptops are placed in a bin by itself.
This has become one of best close-in airports anywhere. American and Delta terminals well thought out.
Delta Terminal has a great breakfast/ lunch buffet & Salad bar! U can sit at gates 1 & 2 to eat & charge all ur stuff before or after ur flight:) they also serve from "Crust" at these gates!
LaGuardia Airport took the place of one of New York City's most popular theme park, Sockman Park, known for the ride that inspired "It's a Small World," "The Fantastic Orb of Nations."- Erick RojasJune 6, 2013Remember to take your laptop out from any case that you may have it in at security. Also, keep in mind wearing new socks (or at least socks without holes in them).
Camaro LimousinesNovember 25, 2014Last updated 10/15/14 ©2012 MarketPlace DevelopmentFigs Restaurant in Terminal B, LaGuardia Airport. The lady manager at this restaurant will make sure your experience is a great one.- Traveling with your pet? Jet Blue is easier than Delta, and slightly cheaper. But both are great, and often beat the cost of boarding, as well as the trauma.
Tiago SardeliOctober 8, 2016Terminal C is awesome!!! Biergarten, good food spots, awesome layout, high tech with iPads almost everywhere for your use!
Order a breakfast sandwich from Centerplate with eggs only (on ciabatta). It's quite massive and costs $3.
Clarence MasonFebruary 13, 2015Baggage claim downstairs is busy and a little tight in space. It's 11pm on a Thursday.. I'm here for All Star Weekend so that may play a role.
Riley the AussieJuly 20, 2012Despite it costing $150 to travel with a pet on most airlines, at least this airport is very pet friendly. Lots of space to rest, outside of the bag of course.
Tim O'NeillMarch 18, 2013Transport into Manhattan is easy...take the M60 bus from LaGuardia to 125th St, and grab the green line subway downtown. Each leg is $2.50 with a Metrocard -- beats paying $40 for a cab!
Megan ThwaitesSeptember 16, 2013If you're taking the M60 from the city to the airport remember: if you're early, you're on time. If you're on time, you're late. If you're late you're left!
It's a new year, let the travel begin. I'm looking forward to the world of salon, spas and resorts I will visit this year. I hope I find my way to yours while on the journey. #lovemyjob
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.
The CIBO express food markets (spot the blue and white logo) sells terrific grab-n-go. Really. Fresh and tasty with variety and decent prices. I now look forward to that when I fly.
If you have a flight out of the b gates, make sure you get there really early. The line can be ridiculous.
Monica LinkApril 14, 2011Airport smaller than expected, but big enough to miss your plane if you're not there early. The food is great and the shops have last minute stuff to buy for family and friends looking for Big apple m
Larry KhulmannJune 1, 2017LaGuardia is a tough airport to navigate. Leave it to the experts at Aaron Limousines Ltd to get you there and back www.limo.li or 516-236-5735 for a safe affordable ride to and from Long Island
Great enhancements to the Delta terminal in recent years. Use one of their iPad stations to play games or watch the news while waiting for your flight.
Quick easy gateway. I specially like the Delta Marine Terminal. So retro I feel transported to the 60's!
Laura Prego-OrtizFebruary 15, 2013So cool – free use of iPad when you arrive. You can also have an espresso and brioche while you relax.
If you're not taking a car service, take Q70 bus to Roosevelt, which connects to several trains that take you into the city! Fast-ish & save your $$ for fun in the city!
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!!
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.
SamanthaMarch 5, 2014What a beautiful place. Lots of room near the gates. Nice people who don't ignore you as you wait for service. Free wifi and good snacks. Oh wait...
Sakib RasulNovember 14, 2021Busy, but clean and beautiful. Tons of dining and shopping options, too.
Centurion lounge outside security in Terminal B is my favorite thing.
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.
The Hellen Keller school for the blind would do a better job at security screening compared to the TSA! Leave 40min just for security line on Tuesdays for flights departing before 9a from Term D
DanJanuary 21, 2015Taxi's are always waiting if you go all the way to the end of baggage claim and just after you turn the corner. Facing the doors turn right and walk all the way to the end.
Aaron GelbmanFebruary 25, 2017If you were coming out here from Long Island make sure you do not bring your own car. Instead book round trip service with Aaron Limousines Ltd

First time flying for business in a while. I hear the new LGA is incredible. Looking forward to seeing what they have done to the place.
The taxi queue at Terminal B is ridiculously long. Order a Lyft or Uber as soon as you step off the plane.
Nov 2016 until further notice, add an addition 30min to 1 hour for your travel plans here. The construction will be a headache (and a missed flight) for the uninitiated.
Omar LoggiaAugust 16, 2016There's a MetroCard vending machine right where you catch the M-60 bus (Manhattan-LaGuardia bus). From baggage claim level, follow signs to "buses to Manhattan." also buy at the convenience stores
Current construction makes parking and entering the airport a challenge. Allow yourself a bit more time.

Carlos NunezSeptember 16, 2018Flying Delta? You will love LGA. Flying anything else? You will hate LGA. If you’re in Terminal B, there is another food court to the right of United’s check-in counters.
