Newark Liberty International (EWR) serves as a major international and transatlantic gateway for the New York metro, commonly used by legacy carriers and several global alliances. Located in Newark, New Jersey, it’s roughly 16–20 km from Manhattan; travel to the city center can take about 20–45 minutes by NJ Transit or Amtrak rail (fares typically range from modest to moderate), or 30–60 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic and tolls. The airport is often perceived as a full-service hub with extensive long-haul connections; it can be convenient for international transfers but may feel busy and spread out for short domestic hops. John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is usually the principal international airport for New York City, handling most long-haul and intercontinental flights and hosting many full-service and international carriers. Situated in southeastern Queens about 20–25 km from Midtown Manhattan, transit options include the AirTrain plus subway or LIRR (total trip around 35–60 minutes, fares vary by service), plus taxis and app-based services that can take longer in peak traffic. JFK is typically favored for direct overseas routes and premium lounges, though navigating terminals and transfer times can be less straightforward for first-time visitors. LaGuardia Airport (LGA) typically functions as the city’s primary short-haul and domestic airport, favored by many US domestic and low-cost carriers for frequent regional connections. Located in northern Queens roughly 8–13 km from Midtown, it’s often the quickest to reach — about 15–35 minutes by taxi or rideshare in normal conditions, and about 30–50 minutes using bus-plus-subway links with lower fares. LaGuardia is usually perceived as more convenient for short trips and business travelers due to proximity, but its smaller terminals and ongoing upgrades can mean limited international options and variable comfort compared with larger hubs.

Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) is the region’s main international and domestic gateway, serving a mix of legacy carriers and several low-cost airlines; it typically handles a significant share of transatlantic and domestic connections. Located about 7 miles southwest of downtown Philadelphia, the airport can be reached by SEPTA regional rail in roughly 25–30 minutes (fares usually moderate), by airport shuttle or rideshare in 20–35 minutes depending on traffic, or by taxi for a higher flat or metered fare. PHL usually offers comprehensive passenger facilities and frequent flights, though peak-hour security lines and occasional traffic congestion can add time. For budget travelers, some low-cost options can make fares competitive, while business travelers often value the airport’s schedule depth and international links.
