UConn to LaGuardia
what to expect.

UConn's main campus is in Storrs, in eastern Connecticut. From Storrs, Route 195 leads to I-84 west — the start of the long run toward Hartford and the New York airports.

Leaving UConn, the car heads out Route 195 to I-84 west. From there to LGA it's I-95 or I-84/I-91 across Connecticut, the Hutchinson and the Whitestone Bridge. It's about 115 mi. With light traffic you're there in about 2 hr 8 min; on a busy day plan on 2 hr 28 min, mostly because of the Whitestone Bridge approach.

LaGuardia isn't the nearest airport to UConn — that's HPN, about 1 hr 37 min away — but it's often the one with the right flight. Enter the address above for the fixed fare from UConn — tolls included.

Pickup time
for LGA.

LaGuardia flights are almost all domestic — that puts your UConn pickup about 4 hr 30 min before take-off.

Most LaGuardia flights are domestic — 2 hours at the airport is enough — but the Grand Central Parkway backs up at rush hour. Tell us the flight number and we'll suggest the pickup time when we confirm.

Break travel
from UConn.

Break weeks fill up fast. If several friends from UConn are flying out of LGA the same day, a Premium Black SUV takes up to 6 with bags. If the school changes the break dates or your flight moves, just tell us — changing the pickup time is free.

At LaGuardia
and back to UConn.

Tell us the airline and your chauffeur goes straight to the right LaGuardia terminal — C for Delta, B for most others. After you land, your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals pickup area of your terminal. LaGuardia's curbs are tight, so we time the pickup to your bags, not just your landing.

For the return, your chauffeur follows the flight, so a delay doesn't cost you anything — the free hour of waiting starts at landing. LaGuardia guide →

Train, bus
or car?

There's no station in town — the nearest is Hartford Union Station on the Hartford Line, so the train trip already starts with a drive. From Hartford Union Station, ride the Hartford Line to Harlem–125th Street (changing at New Haven) and take the M60 bus to the terminals — the bus is the only transit link to LaGuardia.

Compare that with a car: one seat, your bags in the trunk, 2 hr 8 min – 2 hr 28 min to the curb.
