As someone who was stuck here overnight trying to get home to Canada, I found the airport to be clean, comfortable (as comfy as an airport can be), and felt safe, which I believe is the most important when you’re stuck overnight.
Good, now start working on the subway
Give up already
@@SkyBear0509 doomer loser
NEBER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣 This whole country's infrastructure is falling apart.@@SkyBear0509
Add runways first.
@@starventure not much space I’m afraid to add more runways unless they shut down rykers and do some land reclamation
I agree.. the renovation was a grand slam!
You’re joking right? 15 mins of extra walking to get to your gate? 1 crowded security checkpoint that’s never more than half open. Give me the old airport any day. Not to mention huge fees on taxis (which is the only way to get there), and they charge airline 3x higher landing fee vs JFK
@@lukethompson5558 take the bus lol
@@lukethompson5558 that’s a little price to pay to travel through a beautiful airport and that New Yorkers can be proud of.
@@JeanClaudeCOCO The whole point of LGA was you didn’t have to arrive 3 hours prior to your flight
2:13 ngl, the LaGuardia link is lowkey nice
Tell me you're gen z
Scraping a train and still bus to airport terminals? That is a stupid change.
Just extended the N W trains to LaGuardia airport and get it over with
The N W trains runs under neath the Amtrak and the CXS fraigt trains 🚃 runs. The N W elevated lines has more than enough room to exstend the N W trains to LaGuardia airport where the bus terminal is at and they could definitely make it concrete structures just like the Air trains. Every Airport terminals they have is trains and Air trains. Except for LaGuardia airport. Governor Cathy hucko wants this N W trains to be extended to LaGuardia airport. What's the problem?.
It was a good idea to scrap the air train to LGA. The best option would be to simply extend the N and W train line to LGA. This way it's no additional fare.
Frustrating they abandon the plan to have a ramp from terminal B to C/D.
I was wondering what happened to that
Awesome, I love the new LGA and is beautiful. They need to have a subway close to the airport 😊
Bus do that instead "LaGuardia Link" Pathetic. Meanwhile JFK wasted a ton of money with their monorail.
@@42luke93so a bus is “pathetic”, and a train is a “waste of a ton of money”
So what do you propose?
@@42luke93 yes, the bus does that but is annoying it will be better to have one transportation that takes you there instead of two. True about the JFK monorail and the maze they created with the construction 😤😠😡
@@A350flyernyc I would’ve proposed something either to connect to LaGuardia airport from JFK just in case people have to do transfers for planes. Or focus more on connecting it to the subway at the Guardia instead of JFK, which already had the A train.
The N W trains could definitely be extended to LaGuardia airport.
LaGuardia is the best for NY - its so close and easy to get into the city from.
Ever since the new upgrades, LGA became one of the best regional airports in the US so far. It's definitely the best hub of American Airlines.
Best airport for people trying to move out of NYC.
TOO EXPENSIVE FOR ME
CANT EVEN AFFORD IT
2:13 Busses can work for LGA. Prague just inaugurated an extended-length electric trolley bus that runs under a catenary wire. It runs at subway frequencies, and takes 10 minutes.
The LaGuardia Link is already really good. It’s free, takes 15 minutes, runs every 10 minutes or less, has space for luggage, and serves five subway lines and the LIRR. The traffic on the highway segment the bus runs on is pretty good too. If the MTA just built a designated bus ROW for the route (which they’re planning on building), built new elevators and escalators for pax with luggage at Woodside and Jackson Heights, and electrified and lengthened the buses, it would be a really strong transit service for LGA. Just because it’s a bus doesn’t automatically mean it’s a bad service.
When did Prague debut this? I was just there back in September of last year and had to catch the bus to the nearest subway station that got stuck in so much traffic. Plus, space on the bus was pretty limited.
I just don’t understand why they don’t put a bus lane in
@@carson9903Prague unveiled this 2 days ago
@@digitalhenThat’s the MTA’s plan. Hoping to start construction soon
Long overdue, but well done. Congrats. They need a train connection, though. Hopefully, it gets done in a few years.
Does anyone know what the rest of the rankings are? I want to see the list for myself
How? They just canceled the rail link into the city🤦♂️
That was a big F but the bus system can work if expanded and given a dedicated right or way
@@portcybertryx222 I don’t want an expanded dedicated bus system. I want a train
@@conrad1478 it will offer the same capacity. But yeah the transfer will suck but ahh well it should cost less.
@@portcybertryx222 I guess what we can both agree on is that we want fast and efficient service to Manhattan from LaGuardia
I always go to Newark Airport less problems and easier traffic wise.
Where does Kansas City airport rank now?
Doesnt talk about the delays once you get on the plane landing and taking off. These airlines owe me a lot of money based on all the delays recently
You need to take a trip to Asia ....
China, Korea , Japan , Singapore . Pick one and learn what is "good"
Absolutely! From an absolute hole of garbage to actually a pleasant experience. Clean , engaged staff , alternate parking, even baggage handlers were great . You can say negative things but from the days of “ LaGuardia “ the shithole , not even close , slam dunk !👍👏
How is it the best airport when one of their terminals still floods?? Idk yet if I fly into A or B for this upcoming trip but if it's the former I won't even get to see the new upgrades, so what's really changed?
I’ve flown in and out of the new LGA while visiting and I have to agree. It is one of the most beautiful and modern airports I have been to in the US
Haven’t flown into LGA in years but congrats going from what reminded me of a cramped mall like Penn Station. Congratulations New York.
Penn Station is also really nice now too!
@@anthonydpearson yes! Heard they use a portion of the old Post Office on Eighth after the late Senator Daniel Moynihan. Have they improved the old grease pit station or now completely in Farley PO? Thanks.
Portions. The Lirr Concourse is brand new now and more spacious. Speaking of Lirr, they also opened Grand Central Madison to (somewhat) reduce congestion at Penn.
@@aqua2poweros699 thanks for update. Did they redo main Seventh Avenue side where main stairs to terminal were? I remember being hit with hot dog grease.
Are they ever going to do anything about Terminal A tho?!?! I agree about the rest of the airport reno is beautiful
I can’t believe they don’t make it international it’s a big airport
4 billion? That's a cost of over $100 per person for the entire country..for a mid-size airport. Who pays for it?
Any airport that LACKS PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION (and just has a bus) isn’t an airport that I even consider at all. Basically without air trains and public rail transport the airport is just meh
Clearly that's a flawed survey. Sky high food prices, chaos on the airport roadways leading to the terminals and once you make it to your flight, your plane is number 25 in the takeoff line. That does not qualify as the best airport.
What would Fiorello think?
Still with no fixed public transport or even any bus lanes!
Part of it should go to the HOK and HP team who did the renovations.
I have no issues with the buses but everyone knows if you extend the N to LaGuardia the renovations would be a grand slam. Hell you could even go further with that and extend the N past LaGuardia into the Bronx.
LaGuardia is better, but parking at Terminal C is now a disaster. The garage is too small and much of the time, even if you make a reservation especially during the holidays you are diverted to Terminal A and the long term lot to try to find parking. When you ask for a refund they will give it to you once you show proof, but parking at LaGuardia is worse than ever. Now they are working to redo JFK which is a mess this summer. Just don't fly out of Terminal 1 if you can help it as it is disconnected from the Airtrain while they build a brand new Terminal A to replace the 1980s terminal.
I agree! From 3rd world to one of the best in the world.... I love the new airport, hated the old one! Bravo LGA!!! ❤
How did they get the money to pay for the renovations?
If NYC was a country, it would be the 16th richest country in the world. We have plenty of money.
@@anthonydpearson If that's true then why not use the money to better help the poor and homeless.
@@razaabbas7212 Because that’s not how budgets work. You can pay for more than one thing, and something like an airport is usually funded from different sources than a social services budget. But nice try baiting.
Sure.
I am from ATL, it’s good news.
👏👏👏👏 good job love that airport
I never been there. Looks calm and clean.
detroit's airport is what i imagine heaven to look like
All for notoriety and reputation to get more cash flow.
Okay
Best at:
Making me wait outside in the cold for 20 minutes for an airport terminal shuttle, just so I can wait another 20 minutes for a Q60 bus that has an overdosed person dead in the back with a needle in his arm.
Nahhh fam.
Get an air train.
Defiantly the best iv used.
Good airport I like It even tho iam surprise terminal A gets flooded
Ayyoooo from the bottom to the top, it only cost us $8B.
It was worth it. Airports say a lot of the city or country upon arrival.
@@JeanClaudeCOCO 💯 especially after renovating Penn Station, now taking the train into the city doesn’t seem so sad.
It is not one of the best airports in the USA, rather, it is JFK Int’l Airport. LaGuardia is typically a domestic airport.
If LaGuardia is ranked the best airport, what makes Hartsfield-Jackson, which is my airport, ranked at?
I dunno. Do you not know how about a thing called google search, or are you just that lazy?
crazy cause not long ago it was like the worst
THE COMEDY IS GETTING GOOD ON NBC AGAIN! 🤣
Sure but the delays because of two cross runways remain as bad as ever.
Agree 👍 I love LGA
and yet no direct flights past Denver
Blame the laws in place
Subway lol port authority will never allow it …. And there are no lines that go there … and it did get better …
Wow what a 360. It was once a shithole and now one of the best. And I've been using it for the past 10 years every year so I saw the transformation💯‼️
Want more money? Make a designated area for PLANESPOTTING!
I love LGA looks. But taking a bus to Manhattan 😢 subway pls
The buses are fine. They usually run well anyways but yeah we need a subway connection.
You gotta be kidding 🤣🤣🤣🤣. As soon as you get off Terminal you have a free sardine shuttle from MTA to woodside station.
Thats a good transportation link….. dont ya think
It is. It’s served me well
Q70 is godly. Also you have the M60 and other local buses which help you to get to your destination
Ooooooh very indeed
Won't be long before it's trashed
Good, now fix the traffic and the road around it.
1:55
Thank you Governor Cuomo for this
Nice to see President Biden when he was vice president
kidding right? this place where car parking is not possible
Yeah Newark Airport is the best, less problems BQE traffic and nowhere to park at LaGuarida. JFK I see has a lot of third party parking.
USA airports are soo boring, i think Asian airports are way better
Who said they weren’t?
Realy?
Standards in the US are pretty low.
LMAO seriously?? I remember just a few years ago people dreaded LGA
Yeah. Look at LGA now.
No no LGA with those short runways that lead to steep take offs , no way i don't vote for them .Pass
RLY? LaGuardia has NEVER been the best airport. In the years that mom and I used to travel. So what did they do fix it up?
Beautiful is nice, but what about everything else?
LaGuardia was so grimey.
I feel like it is the airport you avoid at all costs. Newark much better.
TSA checkout are much faster. My only complaint is how long it takes to get in the runway but that’s more of a design flaw from the airport runways. It’s still a good airport now.
@@aqua2poweros699 Good to know. I do remember when they were fixing it up. But after awhile I lost track. I think I have been there but I guess when you're so used to the bad you don't realize anything changed.
FOREIGN AIRPORTS ARE FAR BETTER
SINGAPORE INTL HAS FLOWERS AND PALM TREES ALL OVER
BIGGEST ONE IS IN SAUDI ARABIA
30 SQ MILES BIG
HUGE!
are u kidding me?
😂😂😂😂
Have you been to MSP?
April fools two weeks away...
La Guardia may be the best but NYC is not 😂, Mexicans for Trump!
