I can get a non-stop flight from Columbus to New York on Wed that will get me there at 10:30 a.m. It's the same price for LaGuardia and JFK. Which airport is easier and faster to take the airtrain from? Which airport do you guys prefer? I read that LaGuardia is smaller, but I also read that someone lost their luggage there. Any suggestions?

JFK is the only one with an AirTrain. But it's not a direct link into the city! You still have that interminable ride on the subway. I think LaGuardia is the way to go if everything else is equal. You'll save a lot of time (and money) by not checking luggage. Unless you are going overseas or traveling for over a week, you really shouldn't need to check luggage, IMHO.

True. I'm only staying one night so I'll just have a carry on. So are you saying I can get a direct ride from LaGuardia to Webster?

You can get a direct ride from anywhere to anywhere... if you are willing to pay for it (taxi, limo, livery, etc.). But if you are using public transportation, the answer is "no."

Don't you want to drop your stuff off at the hotel first?

I wouldn't be carrying too much stuff, honestly. And if Dani and I stay at St. Marks, then it's just a few blocks walk from Webster. Most check ins around here aren't until 3 p.m.( and I'm assuming that's how it is there) so if my flight comes in at 10:30 a.m. I'd kind of have to just go hang out around the venue.

I'm just looking for the cheapest transportation possible, but I'm trying for something easy since I'm going by myself. Public transportation is kind of foreign in Ohio lol.

Even if you don't want to/can't check into your room, you can ask the hotel will hold your luggage for you. And most hotels nowadays try to accommodate you if you show up early. Guess it all depends on how busy the hotel is at that time.

I'd pick LGA over JFK in your circumstance too. You can probably find people to share a cab with so it would only cost you maybe 1/2 to 1/3 the going rate. I don't know if they organize that at all for you, but i'm sure many other people on your flight will be heading downtown.

Good luck!

Fly to LGA

get to the hotel and either have front desk hold your luggage or maybe they will check you in early

then take the walk to webster,

this way you will not be schlepping around w excess baggage, and you will be familiar with where the hotel is when you have to walk back late at night
