John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s largest international gateway and typically serves long-haul and premium carriers alongside many global alliances, making it the primary choice for intercontinental travel. Located about 16 miles (25 km) southeast of Manhattan, it can take 40–70 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic (fares often range widely), while the AirTrain plus subway or Long Island Rail Road offers a usually faster and cheaper option (30–60 minutes, modest connector fees). Pros: wide flight selection and full-service amenities; cons: can be busy and subject to heavy traffic or longer security times. LaGuardia (LGA) functions mainly as a domestic and short-haul hub favored by many U.S. and low-cost carriers, so it’s often chosen for short trips and regional flights. Roughly 8 miles (13 km) from Midtown Manhattan, typical road times are 20–40 minutes by taxi/rideshare (costs vary with traffic), and limited public transit connections via bus plus subway can take 35–60 minutes for a budget-friendly option. Pros: closest to the city center and good for quick connections; cons: smaller terminals and fewer international services. Newark Liberty International (EWR) sits in New Jersey and commonly serves as another major international and transatlantic hub for several legacy and international airlines, often competing with JFK on price and schedules. About 16 miles (26 km) southwest of Midtown Manhattan, travel times are typically 30–60 minutes by car depending on traffic, while the AirTrain with NJ Transit or Amtrak provides a direct rail link to Penn Station (around 30–45 minutes, with separate fares). Pros: strong international route network and rail access; cons: location across state lines can mean extra logistics for some travelers.

King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED) is Jeddah’s main international gateway and typically functions as a major hub for full-service carriers, especially Saudia, alongside frequent regional and low-cost flights. It sits about 20–25 km north of the city center, with road transfers usually taking 20–40 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hailing services are common and can be moderately priced, while airport express buses provide a cheaper albeit slower option. The airport offers a modern terminal complex with varied dining and prayer facilities, making it comfortable for transits, though congestion and queueing can be an issue at peak times. Overall it balances wide connectivity with occasional delays and a range of transport choices to suit different budgets.
