Explore New York City.
By Eclipse GroupUpdated
New York City has three major airports: John F. Kennedy International (JFK) and LaGuardia (LGA) in Queens, and Newark Liberty International (EWR) in New Jersey. Getting from any of them to Manhattan means choosing between rail links and roads that often congest. Voyara AI is built to make that choice for each trip and keep flights, cars, hotels and meetings aligned when plans change.
Highlights
- Midtown Manhattan, around Grand Central and Penn Station
- Lower Manhattan and the Financial District

Getting there and getting around
JFK and Newark handle most long-haul international flights; LaGuardia mainly serves domestic routes. AirTrain JFK links the airport’s terminals with Jamaica station, for the Long Island Rail Road and the E, J and Z subway lines, and with Howard Beach for the A train. AirTrain Newark connects the terminals with Newark Liberty International Airport station on NJ Transit and Amtrak. LaGuardia has no rail link; buses such as the Q70 and the M60 Select Bus Service connect it with the subway.
The subway runs around the clock. Penn Station and the adjoining Moynihan Train Hall serve Amtrak, the Long Island Rail Road and NJ Transit; Grand Central serves Metro-North, and the Long Island Rail Road through Grand Central Madison. Road trips to the airports, on the Van Wyck Expressway to JFK or through the Holland or Lincoln Tunnel to Newark, vary widely with the time of day.
What Voyara AI does on a New York trip
Voyara AI is built to pick the airport and the route into the city around where your first meeting is, not only around the fare. It follows the inbound flight and moves the car pickup, or suggests AirTrain and rail instead when the roads are the slower option. If a delay pushes your arrival into the evening, it adjusts the hotel check-in and flags the meetings that no longer fit, so you re-plan once instead of booking by booking.
Frequently asked questions
Which New York airport is best for a meeting in Manhattan?
It depends on where the meeting is and when you land. JFK and Newark carry most international flights and both have AirTrain connections to rail into Manhattan. LaGuardia is mainly for domestic flights and relies on buses and roads. Voyara AI compares the door-to-door options for each trip.
How do I get from JFK to Manhattan by train?
Take AirTrain JFK to Jamaica station, then the Long Island Rail Road to Penn Station or Grand Central Madison, or the E subway line. AirTrain JFK also runs to Howard Beach for the A train.
Does the New York subway run all night?
Yes. The subway runs 24 hours a day, although some lines run less often or take different routes late at night and at weekends.
