Alicante–Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC) serves as the main international gateway for Spain’s Costa Blanca, typically handling a mix of leisure and seasonal traffic rather than acting as a major hub. You’ll commonly find low-cost carriers alongside several traditional European airlines operating year-round, so fares can be competitive, especially outside peak summer weeks. The airport is about 9–13 km from Alicante city centre; regular bus services take roughly 20–30 minutes (low single-digit euro fares), while taxis or rideshares are nearer 15–20 minutes at higher cost. Car rental and shuttle options are widely available. Pros: convenient proximity and frequent budget connections; cons: summer crowds and occasional delays during peak season.

John F. Kennedy International (JFK) serves as New York’s primary international gateway and a major global hub, typically handling long-haul and transatlantic carriers alongside domestic flights. You’ll often find full-service airlines and many international alliances here, with fares that can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on route and season. JFK sits about 15 miles (24 km) southeast of Midtown Manhattan; typical transport options include the AirTrain plus subway or Long Island Rail Road (about 35–60 minutes, fares roughly $2.75–$10+), taxis and ride-shares (30–60 minutes, variable tolls), and airport shuttles. Pros: extensive international connections and many amenities; cons: can be busy with longer transfer times and occasional congestion. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) generally operates as New York’s domestic and short-haul airport, commonly serving domestic and near-international flights with a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers. It’s perceived as more convenient for quick domestic hops, though fares can vary widely by carrier and timing. Located in Queens about 8 miles (13 km) from Midtown, travel options include buses and subway connections (roughly 30–50 minutes, fares around $2.75), taxis and ride-shares (20–40 minutes), and shuttle services. Pros: close to Manhattan and often faster for short trips; cons: fewer long-haul options and historically constrained facilities, though renovations have improved passenger experience. Newark Liberty International (EWR) functions as a large international and transatlantic hub serving the New York metro area, commonly used by many full-service carriers and alliances and sometimes offering competitive fares compared with JFK. The airport is situated in New Jersey about 16 miles (25 km) from Midtown Manhattan; common transfers include NJ Transit or Amtrak to Newark Penn Station and then PATH/subway (approximately 30–50 minutes, fares typically $5–$20), AirTrain plus connections, and car/taxi services (30–60 minutes depending on traffic). Pros: strong international schedules and alternate routing; cons: travel times can be affected by bridge/tunnel congestion and additional state-to-state transit steps.
