Cheapest way to get from Grand Central to LGA Airport that's not the subway? Are there shuttles? Thank you!

I've taken an LGA shuttle from GCT/Pershing Square in the past for $17. Not sure if it's still around. Maybe just Google lga shuttle

If it isn't there, the cheapest option is frankly the yellow cab. They have a fixed tarriff

The fare to LGA is not fixed, it’s the fare to JFK that’s a flat price. A cab to LGA is cheap at off hours, but when there’s traffic it can run up quickly. There are some car services that have coupons that make them a little cheaper than cabs - I used to use Carmel.

Subway. Take the 7 to Jackson Height or whatever stop that is. Take a bus after. Faster than traffic and it’s $3.

No subway at all? Or just not all the way there? The M60 bus goes there, but you need to catch it at Lex/125th.

Subway/bus or Uber

If you have the patience... there are MTA buses at the LGA ground transportation terminal..... but really, would recommend you take JFK next time... LGA is an overpriced airport trying to recover the billions it wasted on things New Yorkers didn't ask for.

It takes twice as long to get to JFK from Grand Central than it takes to get to LGA.
