John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s primary international gateway and a major hub for long-haul and premium carriers, typically handling most transatlantic and transpacific services as well as major U.S. airlines. It sits about 16 miles southeast of Manhattan; travel time to the city center can be roughly 45–75 minutes by car depending on traffic, or 35–60 minutes by public transit using the AirTrain plus subway or Long Island Rail Road, with fares usually in the moderate range. JFK offers extensive amenities and many international connections, but busy terminals and occasional congestion can make transfers less straightforward.
LaGuardia Airport (LGA) acts mainly as the region’s short-haul and domestic airport, commonly serving budget and full-service U.S. carriers on coastal and regional routes. Located about 8 miles from Midtown Manhattan, road travel often takes 20–40 minutes without heavy traffic; public buses and shared-ride services link to subway stations with fares typically low to moderate. LGA can be more convenient for quick domestic hops due to proximity, though its older terminals historically meant fewer long-haul amenities and sometimes tighter connections compared with larger international hubs.
Newark Liberty International (EWR) functions as another major international and domestic hub for the New York metro area, frequently used by both legacy carriers and global airlines for cross-country and transatlantic flights. It lies roughly 16 miles southwest of Manhattan in New Jersey, with drive times typically 30–60 minutes by car; the AirTrain plus NJ Transit to Penn Station or PATH connections can take about 30–50 minutes, with fares usually moderate. Newark often provides competitive pricing and strong international connectivity, but it can be less convenient for Manhattan access than airports on the city’s east side depending on your destination and traffic.
Tucson International Airport (TIA) is the main gateway for southern Arizona, serving a mix of domestic leisure and regional business travelers rather than acting as a major international hub. Carriers typically include full-service and low-cost U.S. airlines offering direct and connecting flights to western and central U.S. cities; fares can be competitive compared with larger hubs. The airport sits about 8–12 miles (20–30 minutes) from downtown Tucson; transport options include rental cars, taxi and rideshare services (roughly $20–40), and public Sun Tran bus routes with longer journeys and lower fares. Pros: compact terminal and short walk times make connections easy; cons: fewer nonstop long-haul options and limited late-night service compared with major hubs.
