Departing from LaGuardia Airport (LGA) in Queens, New York, is easier when you plan your parking ahead of time. This guide walks you through your options before your trip, so you can choose with a calm head.
Parking close to your terminal
Many travelers choose a lot near the airport and ride a shuttle to the terminal. Start with your terminal, then read how each lot gets you there. Look at where the shuttle meets you, how long the ride takes and what the lot says about its hours. A lot closer to your terminal is not always the better fit, so read what each one lists.
Lots near the airport: read the listing first
Just beyond the airport, lots are run by their own companies. Each one lists its own shuttle details, hours and extras. Because these lots differ, the most helpful habit is reading each listing all the way through. Look at when the shuttle runs, how you are picked up, and what the lot says about its services. If a detail matters to you and it is not listed, ask the lot before you book.
