Wondering if this will be worth it. Would you take an Uber from Manhattan to LaGuardia for $18, if you had to share a 14-person van with strangers to get there? It'll also only be available from three spots in the city. I think it might be easier to just take a hotel shuttle or something at that point.

Sounds like Via from back in the day

Nope. I'll pay the extra $20-$40 bucks to not share a van with other people for what should be twenty minutes but will probably end up being at least 40+. I don't travel often enough for that to be even a little bit enticing

Taking the F/M to LGA is so so easy from Manhattan. This would be much more worth it for JFK.

LIRR to Airtrain is ridiculously easy and way better than the subway

If you’re looking to save money, you might as well do the 7 train and free bus combo, especially from midtown

I’d definitely take it. It’s like 40-70$ depending on time of day otherwise.

Maybe if I’m traveling personally and I have checked bags; otherwise, I’d just do public transit

Only if I lived right in front of one of those three spots.

This is literally just a more expensive bus or airtrain

I’d definitely do it. My Uber was $100 from
JFK last week and $75 from LGA the week prior

I’d take it. It’s a shuttle with specific meeting spots.

Individual Uber to the airport is $100.

Lol no

I've been taking dollar vans in NYC since the early 90s yo. This ain't nothin new.
