    Are there any restaurants outside the security gates in terminal one? I will be waiting to meet a group and I want to have breakfast while I wait. I want to pick up my bags and then find somewhere to have breakfast while I wait

     

    In general, most of the food & drink facilities are located in the pre-security areas of the terminals. Large Airports also have some post-security facilities.

    What is the best, most economical transportation to get us to Jersey City from LaGuardia, any help is appreciated.

     

    Take the 'Tube' to Manhattan's Penn Station. From there board the public bus 'NYC Airporter' (718-777-5111) - you can purchase tickets online at NYCAirporter.com. It runs every 30 mins.

    Hope you folks and the new airline have much success. Also hope for flights to ATL direct that re a little more inexpensive than the current rates. As I look through the airlines, you folk are not any cheaper than ORF right now.

     

  • ground transport to and from airport to

    we have 6 of us that need transport and two of us need car seat and booster seat. any ideas who might provide that service so we do not have to fly with car seats?

     

    Many rental companies do provide for these extras when requesting them upon reservations. It depends on the size of the airport - the larger the airport the more likely you find amenities. My suggestion: Go to the information counter in the arrivals area.

  • International Terminal to Terminal 3

    I arrive to the International Terinal and have a connection flight fom Terminal 3. The time I have for doing thetransit is 2 hours. How long does it take usually he process? I won't have to pick uo or re-check in my lugagge as it will be cabin bagage only. Thank you.

     

    Without the name of your Airport you arrive at I cannot help you. In general, as an international arrival in the U.S. you need to go through passport check, and (since you have no checked bags) hand in your customs form at the customs clearance, then proceed to Terminal 3. Two hours will suffice even at the largest airports.

    We are flying from DCA/Cozumel via Charlotte... our flight leaves DCA@0645,arrives in Charlotte@0816... we then depart @0940 for Charlotte... is this enough time....

     

    Plenty of time for transfer - You can walk from Concourse to Concourse - no shuttle required. Concourse A (Air Canada, AirTran, American, Continental, Delta, United) has gates A1-12 to the left; Concourse B (US Airways) has gates B1-16 southwest; Concourse C (US Airways) has gates C2-19 southeast; Concourse D (Insel Air, JetBlue, Lufthansa, US Airways) has gates D1-13 to the right; Concourse E (US Airways Express) has gates E1-32 northeast.

  • BWI to Amtrak

    I am traveling to BWI airport and need to find Amtrak to get to Fredericksburg, VA . Where do I go from arrival gate to find shuttle to Amtrak? How long does it take to get to Amtrak from BWI?

     

    It's best to call Amtrak - this is what I found: 1. The Amtrak/MARC Station (tel. 410-672-6167) is located on Aviation Blvd, off I-195, while the Light Rail Station makes a stop at Elm Road. To go to Penn Station, exit the train at Mt. Royal Avenue and take the Penn Station Light Rail. There is only one fare for both trains at each way. Free shuttles take you to the MARC Train Station. 2. From Washington, DC--board MARC Trains at Washington's Union Station located at Massachusetts Ave. and First Street, NE. The Union Station ticket office is open daily from 5:30am-10:30pm. To contact the Union Station ticket office, call 202-906-3104. 4. From Baltimore City--board MARC trains at Baltimore's Penn Station located at 1500 North Charles Street. Penn Station is open from 5:30am-9:30pm. To contact Penn Station, call 410-291-4165.

     

  • need an advice for shuttle service

    I have my connecting flight between LGA and Jfk and I am looking for shuttle service from LGA to Jfk, hold period between the flight is 3 hours. I need to know the time period of travelling and area of shuttle service from Terminal C at LGA.

     

    Transport from JFK to LGA: ETS Air Shuttle 718-221-5341; All County Express 914-381-4223; NYC Airporter 718-777-5111. Travel time 45-60 minutes - you can purchase tickets online at NYCAirporter.com. Alternatively, the Welcome Center on the Arrivals level of the Central Terminal at LaGuardia Airport offers transportation information - all transportation arrangements can be made there, including shared rides, private car and limousine service. The Center also provides information on public transit options that require no more than one connection.

    Is there a waiting area that someone can pull into, to wait for the phone call that someone has arrived and has their bags? It's common at most other airports, but I can't find any info online for it.

     

    Which Airport?
