About This Route

LaGuardia's proximity to Manhattan makes it the quickest airport option for Midtown and uptown destinations. Our car service maximizes this advantage with efficient, professional transportation.

LaGuardia Airport sits just 8 miles from Midtown Manhattan—the closest major airport to the heart of the city. Our LaGuardia to Manhattan car service takes full advantage of this proximity, delivering you to your destination faster than from any other NYC airport.

The journey typically takes 25-45 minutes, significantly less than from JFK or Newark. For business travelers especially, LGA's convenience is hard to beat. We know the optimal routes: the Grand Central Parkway to the Triborough Bridge for Upper Manhattan, or through Astoria and the 59th Street Bridge for Midtown.

The newly redesigned LaGuardia terminals offer a vastly improved passenger experience, and our drivers are fully familiar with the new pickup locations and road network. We coordinate by phone as you land to ensure seamless curbside pickup.

For Manhattan-bound travelers, we provide the same professional service features as all our airport transfers: real-time flight tracking, meet and greet options, and fixed pricing. Just faster, because that's what LaGuardia offers.
