What's y'all's best way to get from LGA to Manhattan (Times Sq specifically)? For work, but I've heard lga is a shit show to leave.

I guess any tips from TS to JFK as well, flying out from there.

The bus to the taxis is only 15 min and then there’s no waiting once you’re there. Uber is a disaster. Sounds like maybe it’s not so bad at terminals A/B but at C/D it was awful. Maybe it’s changed in the past week or so, though.

Get an Uber and expense it if for work

There’s no subway From LGA, you have to take a bus and transfer from the bus to the subway to get to midtown. Takes about an hour and 15.

To get to jfk, take the E train towards queens and get off at Jamaica center and then take the Airtrain to the terminals. Or take the A toward Brooklyn to the JFK stop and get on the air train to the terminals (this way is slower)

Taxi is way better than Uber right now because Uber’s are all funneled into a single area with a bottleneck, so it’ll take 30 min for the Uber to get to you and then you’ll sit in traffic for another 30 min trying to exit. Taxi you have to take a bus, but that only takes 15 min and then you’re home free.

I'm flying Delta and coming in Wednesday evening... so I'm fucked lol

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it.

It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
