July 29, 2015: Never to be at a loss for words or descriptives, US Vice President Joe Biden has described New York’s La Guardia as “third world”! Well he certainly got that right!
LGA, also honored as one of the worst airports in America, is a mish-mash of terminals, confusing entry and exit for both passengers and ground traffic, and operational nightmare with its extremely short over water and neighborhood runways.
LGA is slated for a 4 billion dollar upgrade that will finish in 2021 — if both the folks who run the place — Port of New York and New Jersey — can agree?
The TC’s suggestion is that you avoid the place for the next few years and put up with the longer cab rides or public transit options to JFK or Newark — at least you have some options there if your travel plans go astray!!!!
