Cheap Flights from New York to Chisinau — $253

John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s largest international gateway and typically serves long-haul carriers and major global airlines, often positioning it as the city’s premium international hub. It sits about 16 miles southeast of Midtown Manhattan; travel by AirTrain plus subway or LIRR usually takes 40–60 minutes and can cost roughly $8–$25, while taxis and rideshares commonly run longer and more variable. Expect full-service amenities and multiple lounges, though peak-hour crowds and occasional delays can affect comfort and transfer times. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is traditionally New York’s primary short-haul and domestic airport, frequently used by legacy and low-cost U.S. carriers for business and regional flights. Located around 8 miles from Midtown Queens/Manhattan, surface transit options include buses and the Q70/Q48 shuttles linking to subway/rail in about 25–40 minutes for modest fares, with taxis and rideshares faster but costlier. Renovations have improved terminals and passenger experience, yet LGA can still be busier at peak times and has fewer long-haul connections. Newark Liberty International (EWR), technically in New Jersey, often functions as a major international and domestic hub for several full-service carriers and can be perceived as competitively priced compared with JFK for some itineraries. It lies roughly 16–20 miles from Midtown Manhattan; the AirTrain-plus-NJ Transit or Amtrak route generally takes 30–50 minutes and fares vary moderately, while taxis and rideshares are convenient but subject to tolls. EWR typically offers robust intercontinental connections and extensive ground transport, though transfers into Manhattan can be longer depending on traffic.

Chisinau International (KIV) is Moldova’s main international gateway and typically serves a mix of full-service and regional carriers, with low-cost operators appearing on some routes. It functions as the country’s primary hub for international travel rather than a major connecting center. The airport sits about 10–12 km southeast of central Chisinau; taxi rides usually take 15–25 minutes depending on traffic, with fares commonly in a modest local range, while shared shuttles and occasional local buses can be cheaper but slower. Pros include straightforward layout and relatively short transfer times to the city; cons can be limited late-night services and fewer long-haul amenities compared with larger European hubs.
