Route
Which route does the car take from Midtown to LaGuardia?
From Midtown, the fastest legal route is the Queens-Midtown Tunnel or the RFK Bridge, depending on traffic at departure. Our commercial-plated Suburban and Escalade ESV never use parkways. The FDR Drive, Harlem River Drive and Grand Central Parkway are all closed to commercial plates under New York State rules. The SUVs take the Queens-Midtown Tunnel to the I-495 Long Island Expressway and the I-278 Brooklyn-Queens Expressway. From there they take Astoria Boulevard to 94th Street and the terminals. When avenues move better, they go up First or Second Avenue to the RFK Bridge and on to Astoria Boulevard. MTA tolls at the tunnel and bridge are $7.46 with E-ZPass, and both are included in your fare. The Executive Sedan and S-Class / 7 Series are commercial-plated too and follow the same highway routes.
