Flying out of NYC some weeks from now. I'll be living in Manhattan. Is it easier to fly out of LGA or EWR?

It’d be easier to walk than fly out of LGA.

like

You can take a $13 train from Penn Station to get to EWR. You never have to deal with NY traffic.

Depends west / east side of Manhattan, and airline. LGA is undergoing massive construction and Terminal B is a mess. My personal preference is EWR because I’m in UWS

like

Uber to LGA is $45 and EWR is $90

Lga is awful but if you’re loyal to delta, it’s your best option

like

LGA if you’re in the UES, JFK if you’re in Midtown/LES, EWR everywhere else. If you’re leaving in the evening during rush hour, trains out of Manhattan are more reliable than driving across bridges or tunnels.

I'm assuming he/she can expense the Uber so shouldn't impact decision. I live in West side. Definitely EWR

like

Ewr. I live in manhattan and it is far easier getting in and out of Newark than it is lga

True about the train, but if you are going to Uber it’s LGA

I fly in/out of LGA every week and I work/stay in midtown. Never takes more than 40 minutes each way by Uber

If they are early flights, e.g. 7am, LGA is fine for flying out. Coming in is a different story, LGA on thurs and fri during peak times is a bear, but after 9pm is just fine

Wow. EWR wins by an overwhelming majority. Thanks for the input, fam.

Sanity check here - I lateraled to a big firm last summer, and since then I’ve noticed a few red flags.

The top partners do not treat associates or staff well and I had a brutal “last straw” situation last week. I’m burnt out (pacing at 2200) and anxious all the time, I hit a wall mentally/physically/emotionally. Is it worth it to look elsewhere or is this just big firm life? 🥴
