Getting around New York with a group

  • John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). The airport says terminal curbsides are for active pick-ups and drop-offs only, with no parking or leaving vehicles unattended; early arrivals can wait in a free on-airport wait lot (Lefferts Boulevard, reachable by AirTrain) or the free Cell Phone Lot near Terminals 5, 7 and 8. It also notes pick-ups and drop-offs can take longer during construction.[1]
  • LaGuardia Airport (LGA). The airport says terminal curbsides are for active pick-ups and drop-offs only and unattended vehicles are towed; drivers waiting for passengers should use the free Cell Phone Lot on 94th Street between 23rd Avenue and Ditmars Boulevard (open 7:00 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. ET).[2]
  • JFK states that terminal curbs are for active loading only and unattended vehicles are towed, and that pick-ups and drop-offs may run longer during airport construction, so build in extra time.[1]
  • The National Park Service advises that parking near the Battery ferry terminal is limited and expensive and recommends public transportation; visitors using Liberty State Park in New Jersey find driving and parking easier.[3]
  • At the Statue of Liberty, the ferry ticket time is the time to join the security-screening queue, and the NPS says waits can reach an hour or more in summer, on weekends and on holidays.[4]
