LaGuardia Airport
Car Service
Fixed Price · Flight Tracked · Driver Waits - Manhattan & All NYC
LaGuardia Airport is the closest airport to Midtown Manhattan — 8 miles by road, typically 20 to 35 minutes in a private car. No other New York airport matches that. After a decade-long, $8 billion reconstruction project, LGA is now one of the most modern domestic airports in the United States, with Terminal B completed in 2022 and Terminal C serving as Delta's rebuilt hub. LaGuardia is domestic-only — no transatlantic or transoceanic flights — which means no passport control, no customs queues, and no 90-minute waits at immigration. When your flight lands, you are typically at the arrivals kerb within 15-20 minutes. NYC Transfer has been running LGA transfers since 2013. Our drivers know the difference between Terminal B (American, Southwest, United) and Terminal C (Delta) — and pick up at the right one.

Book Your Guaranteed LGA TransferWhat About Yellow Cabs and Public Transit?
The yellow taxi flat rate from LGA to Manhattan is $70-but that does not include tolls ($6-$10), the 2025 MTA congestion surcharge ($2.50), peak hour surcharge ($5 weekdays 4-8 PM), or a 15-20% tip. Your actual taxi fare typically reaches $93-$105. You also wait 15-30 minutes in the taxi queue, carry your own luggage, and hope the driver speaks your language.
The AirTrain + NJ Transit to Penn Station costs $13.00 total ($5.50 AirTrain + $7.50 NJ Transit) but requires navigating stairs with luggage, transferring at Grand Central Terminal, and adds 45-60 minutes to your journey-not ideal after an international flight with children and suitcases.
With our LGA airport car service, your all-inclusive flat rate of $152 covers the vehicle, gratuity, all tolls including the NJ Turnpike, Lincoln Tunnel, and NYC congestion pricing, flight tracking, 60-minute complimentary wait, and curbside pickup at arrivals. No hidden fees, no math, no surprises.
