For those of you flying in ✈️ there are three major airports to choose from: John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), LaGuardia Airport (LGA), and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). While Uber/Lyft and taxis are widely available, public transport can be a faster option:

LaGuardia
In addition to taxis, Lyft, and regular Uber, there is Uber Shuttle which is a cost effective service that runs on fixed routes and schedules between designated pickup and dropoff locations. Read more.
There are also buses from LGA to the city (all accept GPay or Apple Pay). We recommend checking Google Maps to plan your trip.
