ShaneApril 30, 2014Hanging out at the Gate? Download Songza and drift away with an expertly curated playlist 💂
Take an Uber to the East Village for around $20. Don’t even bother with the busses and trains from here.
Kamphol SrisamutngamAugust 18, 2014Chane ur seats at the gate instead at check in counters, free better seatings in Eco-Plus area.
Yuka カストロ♡January 28, 2013Funny how I was reading that everything's always delayed at this place, and on my plane they just announced that we have to sit here to 30 minutes until we can make it into the gate. Fun times (｡-_-｡)
ºDamian White ºAugust 18, 2012Be sure to get your flight crew some chocolates, they'll treat you right when you treat them right...
If you're flying Spirit Airlines stop and reexamine all of your life choices that led to this horrific decision...
Tsa pre and delta? Don't get in the tA pre line. The sky priority line right next to it is way faster and you can still jump to the tsa pre security check.
MelindaMarch 11, 2013Free wifi on the iPads in the Delta terminal. You can also order food and drink that is brought to you.
If someone is picking you up, I recommend they come get you at the departures/passenger drop off rather than arrivals. Traffic is a nightmare and if you have to go around again, it'll take forever.
You can check in online, check bags and the drop them off at the curb outside. You don't need to do it inside. Saved us about 20min of wait time just by doing that.
Go Jet Blue!!! We flew up the Hudson, due to air traffic. It was gorgeous!!! A great way to end my trip. TY
Coming in late night Friday or Saturday? Don't bother with the M-60. You'll wait 5 busses and get crammed in. Splurge on a cab or other mode for the night.
Route B and Route A run the same loop, except Route A runs out to the Marine Air Terminal, where all Delta flights to/from BOS, DCA, and ORD originate.
The rock playlist at delta gates C15 to C24 is surprisingly good. All day and all night.
KatherineAugust 10, 2014The best way to get into the city, no matter your final destination, is the Airport Flyer. Takes you from LGA to Grand Central for $13.
Delta terminal is actually pretty nice, iPads galore is a cool touch and some decent food options.
FairleighNovember 6, 2012Significantly grosser than JFK but marginally better when it comes to crowds. Also the commute to Manhattan is shorter and less trafficky.
Brooklyn people...highly recommend avoiding Yellow Cabs for return home... Best to find local town car driver you like and reserve pickup at departure level (avoid lower level congestion)...home faste
Bloomberg TVJuly 25, 2012You may not see the pope, but at 680 acres in size, LaGuardia is big enough to fit SIX Vatican Cities.
Andrew ShoemakerDecember 23, 2011If you're traveling during the holidays, be sure to prepare your body months in advance. It's like the Thunderdome in here.
The new remodel is beautiful, but who thought it was a good idea to put carpet everywhere?
Rebecca AdlerSeptember 27, 2014If you're unfortunate enough to arrive here early, make sure to eat before going through security. There is almost nothing to eat or look at once you get through security.
TSA @ Terminal B are the f'in best! lost my wallet before security check and dude was super sympathetic, waited with me, gave me direct line to L&F operator.
If you have an Amex card check out the Centurion Lounge. Full bar and meals, Complimentary if you have a Platinum card.
Get Southern Burger and Buffalo bites at La Freida Beef, so goooood.
Foodandcrits CKDecember 3, 2014Good to be here , finally arrive , a big place with relatively large variety of facilities
Laguardia is the easiest airport to get in and out of in all of NYC!!! believe me: I've flown them all and laguardia beats the hoers hands down!!!!
Dylan RicoMarch 16, 2013Much better than JFK. Tinier, easier to get in and out, and just all around more convenient.
LaGuardia Airport (LGA)December 9, 2015Traveling through #LGA Terminal B? Look out for the #LGASnowBros, surprising passengers with free gifts!!
Taxi: don't wait in the main line which can take 30 minutes. Walk 350 ft further to American Airlines building and hop in the cab of your choice - no line!
Crunch GymSeptember 17, 2010Air travel can be tough on the knees and joints so while in flight, rotate the ankles in a circular motion one at a time. Then, sit back, relax and enjoy your flight.
Terminal B is a hellhole vortex of rude a-holes, from normally-friendly Southwest check-in agents to security-line personnel and travelers who put their bags all over seats at the gate.
Gregg DelpinoJune 22, 2014Great idea but not user friendly.... Always need to confirm order with human first. Second time should be easier
Peter BeckerJune 13, 2014Is it even possible to get out of NYC on time? I doubt it. There's always some cloud in the air anywhere. Don't book a connecting flight!
James TrivlisDecember 4, 2011Since your at LaGuardia Airport (LGA): For $2.25 or one Metrocard swipe, you can get downtown via the MTA M60 bus which connects to the N/R Train, also goes across bridge to 125th . Faster then a cab
Dottie LouMay 18, 2017Probably the ugliest airport I've been in this year. But hey! If you're there, you're leaving, so there's that.
Love Crust by Delta domestic C15, great omelets and frittatas.
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
Don't expect your flight to leave on time and bring a backup phone battery because plugs are nearly nonexistent.
The women's bathroom at the far end of baggage claim is hardly ever crowded, as opposed to the ones throughout the terminals.
Natasha IfillMay 28, 2013Make sure you charge your phones before you get here. They have limited towers with only 5 outlets in the center of the room.
First time experiencing TSA pre boarding! I got to keep my shoes on!! I was very confused when the swabbed my hand lol
Christina HolyfieldMay 17, 2014A very unfortunate place to have to fly from. Long lines and skinny isles. Always wear socks
They just added nice booths with individual outlets and upgraded the food in the Delta section. So nice now!
Kyle V.August 16, 2011There's a nice quiet, rarely used waiting area to the right of gate C14. Open power outlet and good views.
Go to D8 to the Sam Adams stand and ask Manny for a dog with onions made fresh! Best Dog Ever!!
