New York La Guardia Airport Address

Website

New York LaGuardia Airport (LGA) is located on the waterfront of Flushing Bay in the borough of Queens, New York. Although it is the smallest of New York's three commercial airports, the others being John F. Kennedy International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport, LaGuardia is favored by many travelers due to its proximity to Manhattan, only eight miles to the east. Named after Fiorello LaGuardia, a former mayor of New York, LaGuardia is operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. With four terminals, the airport is a focus city for Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, and US Airways with flights to destinations within the United States, Canada, Aruba, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.
