John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s primary international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers like American, Delta and international airlines, while also serving some low-cost long-haul operators. Fares from JFK can be competitive on premium long-haul routes but may be higher than secondary airports for domestic travel. Located about 16 miles (25 km) from Midtown Manhattan, typical options to the city include the AirTrain plus Long Island Rail Road (30–45 minutes, moderate fare), subway via AirTrain (45–60 minutes, low fare), taxis or app rides (30–60 minutes, variable tolls). Pros: many long-haul connections and full-service facilities; cons: busy terminals and potentially long security and transfer times. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is primarily a domestic and short-haul regional airport favored by business travelers and low-cost carriers, with airlines such as Delta, American and several budget carriers operating frequent flights. LGA tends to be perceived as economical for short hops but can be pricier than out-of-town options during peak times. It sits roughly 8 miles (13 km) from Midtown Manhattan; travel choices include taxi or ride-share (20–40 minutes, fare varies with congestion), public buses and subway connections (40–60+ minutes, low fare), or shuttle services. Pros: close to Manhattan and quick for regional trips; cons: limited international service and occasional congestion. Newark Liberty International (EWR), located in New Jersey, functions as a major international and domestic hub—especially for United Airlines—and typically handles a mix of full-service and some low-cost carriers. Flight prices to EWR can sometimes be lower for transatlantic and connecting itineraries, though ground transit costs and time should be considered. It lies about 16 miles (26 km) southwest of Midtown Manhattan; common transfers include NJ Transit or Amtrak via the AirTrain and train (30–45 minutes, moderate fare), express buses (40–60 minutes, low–moderate fare), or taxis/rideshares (30–60 minutes, variable). Pros: strong international connectivity and often good connection options; cons: across-state logistics and varying commute times depending on traffic.
