Despite its low cost, there are no direct subway lines from the airport. It will not only save you money even on one use but will also save time on your commute. Book a trained, English-speaking taxi driver to pick you up at the same price as a regular cab from the line. If you feel more relaxed knowing that somebody is waiting for you, you may as well book a Welcome Pickups transfer. As soon as you arrive at the airport you will be greeted by your driver. He will be waiting for you at the terminal of your arrival with a sign that has your name on it.
Your driver will help you out with your luggage and together you will make your way to the vehicle. While he is driving you to your accommodation, the driver can give you some tips and recommendations on what to do during your holidays in New york. Our drivers are hand-picked and speak fluent English. No need to worry about miscommunication issues that you may face with the local taxi drivers regarding your destination.
Thanks for reading, Dave. Yes, the M60 can be a good way to go. The entire bus route can take about 50 minutes without traffic. Your post says to take the 1 to and transfer. Is a better chance of a seat? Sorry about that! I could swear I wrote th st. Yes, gives you the best chance to get a seat. Forget it! It was horrible.
Really horrible. Thanks so much for sharing this information. I arrive on a Wednesday at pm and am staying near Lincoln Center. I tried to look online for information about construction. Very thankful for such a useful and informative post. Thank you for your response!
At that hour, I would look to schedule a return on Go Airlink and you should get to LGA super fast given the early departure. Mostly for speed purposes as those lines are still considered off-hours at that time. You could try an NYC yellow taxi but that means waving one down essentially in the middle of the night. Could you tell me the best way for us to get to Hotel Wales Madison Ave? You can book this online in advance which is advisable if you choose this option.
Hope this helps!! We have to return the car tomorrow before noon to the airport to follow our 5 days stay in Manhattan Hilton times square. Do you think is a good idea to return the car in La Guardia or JFK because then we need to figure how to go Manhattan.
I Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading! Just want to confirm, are you looking to get back into Manhattan from either LGA or Manhattan after you drop off the rental car?
If so, LGA is closer to Manhattan where you can take either a shuttle or public transportation. The one difference on public transportation is you can take a train directly from JFK into Manhattan. Also, from each airport, you can book a Go Airlink reservation to take you directly to a hotel located in times square.
Hi Jackie, Thank you for sharing all this useful info! I will be traveling with my family 4 people total from La Guardia to Manhattan for the first time! Could I simply rent a car from La Guardia and drive myself? If I can, any suggestions on where and how to rent a car?
Thanks for reading, Lily. Laguardia does have car rental counters at the airport to rent a car. Not to mention, a lot of time can be wasted figuring out where to go and what to do with the car. Public transportation is the cheapest way to go. It would likely work out to be just about the same as the GoAirlink shuttle but you would have the taxi all to yourself.
Reserved car services will be similarly priced into Manhattan. Thank you for all of this helpful information! Yes, a very quick trip! Thank you in advance! Thanks for reading, Peter. I would recommend using the GoAirlink Shuttle for an affordable transfer. For the return trip, I would leave by 3pm so you can get to LGA by 2 hours before flight without stressing out on the way.
Thanks so much for your effort, help and advice, Jackie! I understand your point and this has been extremely helpful! First time in New York. Thanks for reading, Shondreka. Get off the E train at 53rd and Lexington. Then walk Southwest to your hotel on 49th and Lexington. Arriving at LaGuardia at We will be wanting to get to the hotel asap and wondering if we are we better off taking a taxi or car service at that time of day?
This would be the most informative site I have seen thank you. Thanks so much for reading, Les. At on a Tuesday, most of the morning rush should have worked itself out exception being the Tuesday after Labor Day because traffic on that day in the city can be bad all day.
Just carry-on luggage. Hotel is Refinery — 63 West 38th St. What is our best bet to get to hotel asap? Are we past subway rush hour? What would be our best bet for return and what time would be best bet to leave midtown? Thanks for reading, Albert. Appreciate the kind words. This will be at Roosevelt Ave and 74th Street. The quicker you can get to a subway, the better. You will then bypass any and all traffic.
If you plan to use public transportation on the return, be mindful the bus will run less often on Sunday evenings. Good luck and thanks again for reading! Thanks a bunch for your reply Jackie! Quick follow-up question…. Of the F, M or 7 trains into Manhattan, is there one that is quicker to Bryant Park stop than the others? Much appreciated, Albert. No problem, Albert. Second trip to midtown from LGA was late night, so we took taxi.
Going back to LGA we took taxi both times. Trip times were half hour and 45 minutes via taxi. Just an FYI, due to construction, if taking taxi from LGA to anywhere, you have to take shuttle bus from there to taxi stop off airport. This is time consuming, but once in taxi, there is no airport navigation to contend with.
Thanks again for your help, Albert. Thanks for sharing your experiences, Albert. It will be helpful for others who are planning their airport transfer.
Glad everything worked out for you! Hi Jackie! Thanks so much for all of this info! Thanks for reading, Tammy. From there, you can take several trains to Manhattan. From there, your hotel is just a couple blocks away on 44th St. You can certainly do this in reverse on the way back. You want to give yourself a minimum of an hour to return…with minutes being even better to avoid any stress.
Thanks so much for reading, Pam. Thank you so much for all this great information. I am traveling to NYC with a group of friends, and it is all our first times going there.
We are staying at the Holiday Inn at 8th Ave. Would you be able to tell me my best route from LaGuardia, as well as the best way for when we fly back home? From your information, getting to the hotel we will take the M60 to Astoria Blvd, then get on the N or W? And which stop for our hotel? Thanks for reading, Josey. Transfer to the E train towards Manhattan and then get off at 42nd St. Walk south numbered streets going down on 8th Avenue for about 3 blocks to reach your address.
Thanks so much for this great information in your article! My friends and I always take a taxi from LaGuardia into Manhattan when we visit. As a recently retired teacher, every bit saved is more to spend on the trip! Thanks again! My mom,five year old, and I will be traveling to New York for the first time this November. We are staying at the Holiday Inn at LaGuardia Airport, but want to know how to get to Manhattan as that is where all of the touristy sites are.
What do you recommend as best way to get there? Thanks for reading, Victoria. The 7 subway train is just a couple of blocks from the hotel. Take the train into Manhattan. Along the way in Manhattan, there are numerous other subway lines that all connect with the 7 train. Enjoy NYC! We fly into LaGuardia on Monday 3pm. Is it very difficult to go on public transportation from LaGuardia to W. Or should I arrange a shuttle?
And return to LaGuardia on Saturday. Flight departs at 3pm. What do you recommend? Thanks for reading, Liza. NYC for Thanksgiving will be so fun!
If the 4 of you each can manage your luggage on your own i. Otherwise, the shuttle would absolutely be your best bet at that time of day on Monday of a holiday week over a taxi or a car. The traffic will be heavy. Thanks Jackie for your reply! Getting excited our trip is this month already! What about the return? What mode of transportation is mostly recommended?
