Cheap Flights from New York to Cincinnati Starting at $47

John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s primary international gateway, serving many full-service carriers and long-haul routes alongside some low-cost operators. It’s about 16 miles southeast of Midtown Manhattan; typical travel options include the AirTrain plus Long Island Rail Road or subway (35–60 minutes, fares roughly $10–20), taxis and ride-shares (30–60 minutes, metered fare or surge pricing). Pros: extensive international connectivity, wide range of lounges and services. Cons: can be busy with longer security or transfer times and generally higher on-airport prices. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) functions mainly as a domestic and short-haul regional hub and is popular with legacy and low-cost carriers for Northeast routes. Located in Queens just 8 miles from Midtown, it’s accessible by bus, shuttle, taxi or ride-share; transit times are typically 20–40 minutes via bus + subway or 15–35 minutes by car depending on traffic, with fares generally modest for public transit. Pros: close to Manhattan and convenient for short trips. Cons: fewer international flights, limited long-haul amenities and can experience congestion during peak hours. Newark Liberty International (EWR), technically in New Jersey, operates as a major international and domestic hub with a heavy presence of legacy airlines and many transatlantic flights. It’s roughly 16 miles southwest of Midtown Manhattan; common connections are the AirTrain to NJ Transit or Amtrak (30–50 minutes, fares about $15–25), as well as taxis and ride-shares (30–60 minutes). Pros: extensive flight choices and efficient rail links to New York and New Jersey. Cons: slightly further from Manhattan for some neighborhoods and can be perceived as pricier for ground transport during peak periods.

Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) serves as the region’s primary commercial gateway and can act as both a domestic connector and a growing low-cost and cargo hub. Major carriers and several budget airlines typically operate here, so fares can sometimes be more competitive than at nearby larger airports. CVG sits about 13–15 miles south of downtown Cincinnati; travel time by car is usually 20–30 minutes depending on traffic. Ground options include taxis and rideshares (fares vary by provider), airport shuttle services, and regional buses that take a bit longer but cost less. Pros: generally easier parking and shorter security lines than larger hubs. Cons: fewer nonstop long-haul options and limited late-night public transit.
