Westchester County Airport

Westchester County Airport (HPN), opened in the 1940s, is a compact, convenient regional airport serving White Plains and lower Westchester County with a single main terminal and a handful of gates that handle short-haul flights into and out of the New York metro area. As an important reliever to JFK and LaGuardia, HPN is a popular choice for business travelers from Westchester and nearby Fairfield County — about a 30–45 minute drive to Manhattan — with shuttle, taxi, rental car and regional bus links; the nearest Metro-North station is a short ride away. HPN is not a major airline hub but hosts regular service from carriers such as JetBlue, American Eagle and Delta Connection; fares are often mid-range and can be slightly higher for the convenience, though occasional low-cost deals make it a solid pick for affordable flights into the northern suburbs of NYC.
