LAGUARDIA AIRPORT
LaGuardia Airport Car Service
Chauffeured transfers to and from LGA, with the pickup point for your terminal confirmed before you land. Flight tracked, rate agreed in advance.
The Easier of the Two City Airports
LaGuardia came out the other side of its rebuild with terminals that are genuinely pleasant to use and, more usefully for anyone being collected, pickup arrangements that are clear and stay put. After the moving target that JFK has become, that is worth something.
It is also closer to Manhattan than JFK by a reasonable margin. What it does not have is a rail connection, so every arriving passenger is leaving by road. That concentrates traffic on the Grand Central Parkway and the approach roadways in a way the distance alone does not predict, particularly in the early evening.
We track your flight, send the pickup point for your terminal before you land, and on the outbound side plan against the hour rather than the mileage.

ARRIVALS
Where Your Car Meets You
LaGuardia's three terminals each handle car service pickup differently, and the difference is worth knowing before you walk out.
| Terminal | Car service pickup |
|---|---|
| Terminal A | Directly across the street from the terminal |
| Terminal B | Level 2 of the Terminal B parking garage |
| Terminal C | The arrivals inner lane |
Follow the signs marked for car services rather than the signs for taxis, which route to a different area. Your chauffeur confirms the exact spot once your flight is on the ground, so you are not interpreting signage with a suitcase in one hand.
Meet and greet — $30 plus parking.
Your chauffeur parks, comes inside and meets you with a name sign. Domestic arrivals are met at baggage claim; international arrivals outside customs. Worth booking when someone unfamiliar with the airport is arriving, or when there are children or a lot of luggage involved.
How Long Your Chauffeur Waits
| Arrival type | Complimentary waiting |
|---|---|
| International flight arrival | 60 minutes from landing |
| Domestic flight arrival | 45 minutes from landing |
| Local pickup | 15 minutes |
Waiting is measured from actual touchdown rather than your booked pickup time, so a delay does not eat into it. Beyond the complimentary period it is billed in fifteen-minute intervals at $1.50 per minute for a sedan, $2 for a full-size SUV and $3 for a Sprinter van. If you are held up, call 844-441-0003 and we will keep the vehicle in place.
Heading To LaGuardia
On the outbound side the Grand Central Parkway is the variable, and it is a less forgiving road than its length suggests. The early evening is the worst of it, which unfortunately coincides with a heavy departure bank.
Tell us your airline and terminal when you book. LaGuardia's terminal assignments settled after the rebuild, but confirming still beats assuming, and knowing the terminal means we drop you at the right departures level rather than the nearest one.
From New Jersey, an LGA run crosses the whole city. It is a longer and more variable trip than most people expect from an airport that looks close on a map, and we will give you an honest departure window rather than a flattering one.
Choosing a Vehicle
On airport runs the bag count decides the vehicle more often than the passenger count does. An executive sedan takes 3 passengers and 2 checked bags. A full-size SUV takes 6 and 5. A Mercedes-Benz Sprinter takes 14 passengers and 10 bags. Tell us both numbers when you book and we will recommend a class rather than have you discover the problem at the kerb.

Where does my driver meet me at LaGuardia?
It depends on your terminal. Terminal A pickup is directly across the street from the terminal. Terminal B is on Level 2 of the Terminal B parking garage. Terminal C is the arrivals inner lane. Follow the car service signs rather than the taxi signs, and your chauffeur will confirm the exact spot once you land.
Is LaGuardia easier than JFK for a pickup?
Generally yes, at the moment. LaGuardia's pickup arrangements are settled and clearly signed. JFK is partway through a redevelopment and its pickup points have moved more than once, with Terminals 5 and 7 now routing car service passengers to a lot reached by AirTrain.
How long will my driver wait?
Forty-five minutes from landing for domestic arrivals and sixty for international, measured from actual touchdown. Beyond that it is billed in fifteen-minute intervals at a rate confirmed when you book.
What if my flight is delayed?
We track it and move the pickup automatically. A delay does not change your quoted rate, and your waiting window still begins when the aircraft actually lands.
Is there a train to LaGuardia?
No rail connection serves the airport directly, which is why every arriving passenger leaves by road and why the approach roadways carry more traffic than the distance suggests. Building a little extra time into a departure is sensible.
How early should I leave for a flight out of LGA?
That depends on where you are starting and the hour — the Grand Central Parkway in the early evening is a different proposition from the same road at six in the morning. Give us your flight time when you book and we will recommend a pickup.
Can you do LaGuardia from New Jersey?
Yes, though it crosses the whole city and takes longer than the map suggests. We will give you a realistic window rather than an optimistic one.
