Trick question, none of the above.

Newark all the way if you fly out of Terminal C

(United terminal)

Definitely air tran from EWR. LGA is hot trash and JFK is in long island

like

it's what we in the biz call hyperbole

Avoid LGA for next 2+ years. There is no good time as traffic changes are unpredictable.

like

LGA. JFK is so far away and traffic is typically worse from NJ to Manhattan than from Queens to Manhattan, so LGA over EWR.

like

Lol it’s definitely not an hour

LGA is an absolute nightmare. I always do EWR when I can because the train is so efficient. Drops you right at Penn Station.

like

Ewr because nj transit goes straight to penn. never jfk. Belt parkway is no joke

like

HPN.

like

Fly into LGA if you're getting in late and there's no traffic. Otherwise, EWR.

Fly out of Newark Terminal C pretty much anytime. Most every other airport terminal in NYC is a dump.

like

HPN + Uber or EWR + Uber or Train
LGA is a mess with the construction right now, and even when it’s done it will still be a mess. JFK is super far away.

Lga

Where in the city and when? Probably not EWR

If you’re in west village or Chelsea I think ewr is better.

LGA

Depends on where in the city. EWR is the easiest in terms of getting an Uber and depending on the time of the day not hard with getting into Manhattan.

Reference: Live in Newark, fly out of Newark and always take Ubers in and out of Manhattan when I’m too tired to take the train.

Midtown on a Monday morning or potentially a Sunday night.

Agree. Sunday night traffic will be fine. Monday morning and you'd be better off taking the train or a bus (bus lane) in, which isn't worth it.

EWR!!!!

HPN is usually a lot more expensive, and is a low priority airport if traffic gets backed due to storms. But very easy in and out.
