|---|---|---|---|---|
| LaGuardia Airport | LGA | 17 km (11 mi) | 7,002 ft | 21 ft |
| John F. Kennedy International Airport | JFK | 34 km (21 mi) | 14,511 ft | 13 ft |

Runway length is a practical tell: at 7,002 ft, LGA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 21 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
