Depends on where you live. I'm in the upper east side so lga is the easiest

They are all bad with recurring delays ... come with low expectations.

LGA is POS but the closest. JFK is best for international

like

Just accept that they all suck. Don't worry about it.

I'm in Queens so I'm 30 mins from JFK and LGA. Def depends on where you live. If you're downtown, EWR would be easier

like

Depends on a bunch of factors. Airline, your starting location in NYC, your destination, etc... I prefer LGA for Delta, JFK for international, EWR for United/SWA, it goes on and on.

Normally I would say LGA, but with all the construction, probably JFK

like

They all suck, but LGA

like

This summer is going to suck for JFK domestic bc there's a runway under construction. Otherwise it's much more reliable than LGA

like

First year associate here so no airline preference. Location is flexible as I'm still looking for a place. LGA was the preferred airport until all the construction. Leaning towards EWR. How's JFK for domestic flights? Better or worst than EWR or just as bad? Had a few delays the last time I flew out of JFK. 🙏
