omg this is way too late to leave!!! and I prefer Lyft

I live in Midtown East and I leave 60-90 minutes before departure for the first flights (6am). The lines can be super long for a 8/9AM flight so 2 hours would be fine.

Leave 7:45 assuming you have clear and pre check. Yellow cab.

But then how do you get loaded on drinks at the lounge bar

Aren’t Ubers more expensive than yellow cabs now, no? Maybe check local car service to see if it’s more expensive than Uber. I know if I called car service from my area in Brooklyn, it’ll be cheaper than Uber by like 20 dollars

Port authority to LgA this morning was $55 flat + 14 tip = 70. Gas is higher
Uber was $85+ tip.

Ride share...Uber or Lyft
Btw...are you checking bags? You're cutting it close to catch your flight during rush hour

You can also use the curb app (prob uber app now too though I haven't tried) to schedule a cab to pick you up within a specific time window

I think yellow cabs MIGHT offer a flat rate? To JFK for sure but not too sure about LGA

Def only jfk, no flat rate to lga

If you schedule the ride it might be cheaper

Had this same exact scenario only flight was a little earlier. Ended up going with a taxi- the price was almost exactly the same but had the added stress of trying to hail the taxi.

If it’s expensed uber 100%, can leave by 7:15/30 if you have Clear and PreCheck. If you’re going to sweat the extra $20-30 then yellow cab but leave at 7 to give enough time to call one

I'm trying to compare the perks and benefits of leadership positions at the four big CRE firms; JLL, Cushman Wakefield, CBRE and Colliers.
