Hailing a ride to and from LaGuardia Airport just got cheaper. Uber on Tuesday launched a new $18 shuttle service with two routes connecting Midtown Manhattan and LaGuardia Airport, operating daily every 30 minutes from 5 a.m. to 10:45 p.m. Stopping at Port Authority, Grand Central Terminal, and Penn Station, the passenger vans can carry up to 14 passengers with each rider allowed one personal item and one piece of luggage.
For the first month, riders who choose the Shuttle option will receive a 50 percent discount, reducing the fare to $9.
Shuttle routes from Midtown to LaGuardia:
- Route one stops:
- Port Authority Terminal (340 West 42nd Street, New York)
- Grand Central Terminal (106-110 East 42nd Street, New York)
- LGA Airport Terminal C Arrival level curbside
- LGA Airport Terminal B Arrival level one – Pillar five
- Route two stops:
- Penn Station (214 West 34th Street)
- LGA Airport Terminal B Arrival level one – Pillar five
- LGA Airport Terminal C Arrival level curbside
To book a shuttle on Uber, enter your pick-up and drop-off locations, then select the “Shuttle” option. After viewing the fare and pickup time, tap “Request” to complete your reservation. You can reserve up to four seats, with reservations available up to seven days in advance.
LaGuardia is served by five different MTA bus routes, including the free Q70, which travels from Roosevelt Avenue and 61st Avenue, and the M60 route, which connects the Upper West Side and the airport. The Q47, Q72, and Q48 also have stops at the airport.
