- Marcie KowalskiSeptember 6, 2012The new delta terminal is amazingly beautiful and not rows and rows.of fake leather seats. Beautiful restaurants. Breakfast isn't served in the grab n go spots until after 5am.
Surprisingly better than it used to be. Delta has done a nice job taking a dark space with low ceilings, and making it a place you can spend an hour in between flights. Decent sandwich options.- Megan IrvineNovember 10, 2014The entire terminal is laid out like a restaurant (Empire Tavern), and there's an iPad at every seat. However, the food & beverages are expensive.

ºDamian White ºNovember 30, 2012If you're going to fly, use Delta... They actually invest in the experience which makes your journey that much more enjoyable. Especially when utilizing their new gorgeous terminals.
The new LGA is big so give yourself some extra time. To get to your gates can take up to 15 minutes…and this is AFTER you check in and go through TSA.
TomNovember 25, 2019Decent food in the food hall but $$. Multiple Delta Sky clubs. If you are arriving here, the pick up area is a mess. Ride share has a dedicated area and they are using a wait in line code system.
It’s nice now! I dunno if Foursquare will create a new venue or not, but they should wipe the slate clean of old tips, photos, and ratings!
VernaSeptember 16, 2012The food court has Artichoke pizza. Great way to try it without waiting in the massive line downtown near The Standard.
Mitchell KaplanMarch 21, 2019A bit crammed in security line and boarding space but it worked well enough. With pre-check I dropped off a bag, got help, went through security, bought food, and joined the boarding line in 20mins.- Jacob Rodvelt-GamlieliSeptember 5, 2012If your flight is cancelled or you need something from an airline employee a little coffee or chocolate goes a long way. Be nice.
Beachmom01February 22, 2013Food Court is on your left after you leave the TSA security checkpoint. If you go to your right there's a nice wine bar. If you're in the hopes of finding a last minute gift go to terminal D.
Denise EvansSeptember 8, 2011Lga-ilm always delayed. Bring a change of clothes and flip flops to get comfy during your two hr wait. If u have an Amex platinum card u can get into the usairways club for free. It's worth it!
Adrienne KolotyloJuly 7, 2019The food here is outrageously expensive and the quality is not good - bring snacks or eat before getting here. This is the worst airport for food I’ve ever been to.
Jason BibbJuly 21, 2012Umm if you're staying in Nj while visiting NYC.. Probably best to fly into Newark to avoid a 94 dollar cab ride
StephJune 26, 2012They've got some work to do on terminal C. Workers were very helpful and polite though.
If you have a pre-arranged car service picking you up, make note of whether you're arriving at the new Delta terminal C gates or at terminal D
Jim PellegriniJune 4, 2012Shockingly good coffee from World Coffee. Wait on the hand pour, it's worth the 5 minutes.
It’s spacious, plenty of places to charge your devices.
Tiffany GutshallDecember 17, 2010My carry on was one centimeter top big, so I had to check. TSA and US Airways are in cahoots to charge everyone an arm and a leg!
Rubin StoneOctober 25, 2011Avoid the long security line at the main check-in for USAirways and walk down the terminal to your right (facing the gates) to the security queue for the USAirways Shuttle. Much shorter wait time.
YinzandYangMay 17, 2012Don't forget to bend over before usairways sticks it to you. It's more comforting when you know it's coming.
Don't forget to stop by InMotion Entertainment for all of your headphone, movie, and mobile entertainment needs!
Jenn ClarkSeptember 26, 2012Terminal C is appalling, especially the restrooms. Just walked in and saw a woman with one leg on the sink, wiping her crotch area with a paper towel. You cannot make this shit up!
Iaisha GMay 23, 2010Dunkin Donuts self serve is great for grab and go. Coffee is hot and tasty & the muffins are fresh. (930am)
LuseanaApril 8, 2012There are additional restrooms downstairs if there is a line at the women's room upstairs.
James John (Jay) Cudney IVAugust 4, 2018Looked much nicer. Easy boarding. Long security line but went quickly.
Robert ThompsonMarch 1, 2019Flight at LGA turned into a terminal airport daymare. The never-ending construction seems to cause some much traffic havoc which prolonged me boarding. Leave early this place is behind the times.⏱
Rachel Alfonso-SmithMay 22, 2011Bathrooms at the top of the escalators to baggage claim. More bathrooms at the bottom on your way to baggage claim. Neither are great.
Runxin LiAugust 17, 2019Don’t fly from/to LaGuardia if you can, construction makes it a disaster. Expect 30 minutes in and out.
Molly BrillMarch 22, 2013Not only would I eat before you get here, I'd also recommend going to the bathroom before too -:(
Inessa CollierJune 19, 2013Get here EARLY!!! The security line is excruciatingly slow. And don't kill your phone battery while waiting: there are no charging stations in the waiting area.
Joann LeeJune 8, 2013Delta - loves to throw curve balls and make gate changes to terminal C when you're already waiting at D
Very nice terminal. If only the other airlines learn from them.
LinusJanuary 14, 2012If there is a long line for cabs, go to the taxi stand outside baggage claims 4 and 5. There usually isn't a long line.
Marian VitaleAugust 19, 2013Don't park outside terminal D like I did. Unless you want to walk a mile.
Sue MAugust 3, 2014An iPad at every seat. Not enough seats. Hard chairs not conducive to a long layover or delayed flight.
There's free Starbucks coffee for Delta Shuttle passengers behind a wall by Gate C35.
There's a food court between the Delta side and the US Airways side. Follow the signs that says to Gates 1-10.
Angela W.April 2, 2013Gates C16-C24 smell like bacon due to the new Empire Tavern in this concourse!
