Seattle is served primarily by Seattle–Tacoma International Airport (SEA), the region’s main international hub handling a wide mix of full-service and low-cost carriers — notably Alaska Airlines and Delta alongside several budget operators. Located about 14 miles (22 km) south of downtown, travel to the city center typically takes 20–35 minutes by Link light rail or 20–45 minutes by car depending on traffic; fares for public transit are usually modest, while ride-hailing and taxis can cost more. SEA offers extensive connections and amenities, making it convenient for long-haul and connecting travel, though peak-hour road congestion and occasional security queues can add time and stress.
John F. Kennedy International (JFK) is New York’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for carriers like Delta, American and JetBlue, alongside numerous global airlines. Flights here can be pricier on average than secondary airports but often offer the widest route selection. JFK sits about 15–20 miles from Midtown Manhattan; typical options to the city include the AirTrain plus subway (around 45–60 minutes, low-to-moderate fares), airport shuttles or express buses (45–75 minutes), and taxis or rideshares (35–60 minutes with metered or variable fares). Pros: extensive international connections and full amenities; cons: sizable terminals and potential for longer lines and transfer times.
LaGuardia (LGA) is primarily a domestic and short-haul airport serving many U.S. carriers and low-cost operators, often used for quicker city access and short-hop itineraries. Fares can be competitive, especially for regional flights, though limited long-haul options mean fewer international bargains. LaGuardia lies roughly 8–10 miles from Midtown Manhattan; ground transport includes buses plus subway or direct shuttle services (30–60 minutes, low fares), taxis and rideshares (20–40 minutes, variable cost), and some private transfers. Pros: proximity and faster transfers for domestic travelers; cons: fewer international routes and more constrained terminal space compared with larger hubs.
Newark Liberty International (EWR), located in New Jersey, functions as a major transatlantic and domestic hub with a strong presence of United Airlines and multiple international carriers. It can be competitively priced versus JFK for certain routes and often handles heavy business and international traffic. Newark is about 16–20 miles from Midtown Manhattan; travelers commonly use the AirTrain to NJ Transit or Amtrak (30–50 minutes, moderate fares), express buses, and taxis or rideshares (30–60 minutes, variable fares). Pros: robust international network and efficient rail link to Manhattan; cons: can require longer ground transfers depending on traffic and terminal location.
