AIRPORT CONDITIONS · QUEENS, NEW YORK
Check LaGuardia Conditions & Security Waits
LGA publishes real-time General and TSA PreCheck waits by terminal. Confirm Terminal A, B or C, then check advisories, your airline and FAA status.
LGA’s passenger terminals are not connected by an airside train. The All Terminals Shuttle is landside, so changing terminals may require another security screening.
BEFORE YOU GO
Five checks in the right order
- Confirm the operating airline and terminal.
- Read the current General or TSA PreCheck time for that terminal.
- Add the terminal’s published walk time from security to your gate area.
- Check LGA advisories and your operating airline.
- Review FAA NAS Status for LGA-wide traffic-management delays.
