Hey guys, many people are telling us about the pronounciation mistake of LaGuardia in this video, it was a tiny mistake, which i understand might be bugging some people, i am extremely sorry for that, but i hope you guys will understand and judge the video on the basis of information, because it takes a lot of effort to make videos like this.

LaGuardia opened in December 1939 not 1929.

The one that stuck out to me was your pronunciation of "Teterboro" which should be pronounced with a long E like in "tee".

[@edwardstarkman1250]

@@YHDiamond Yes, Glenn Curtiss and North Beach predated LaGuardia. That does not negate the fact that LaGuardia opened on December 2, 1939. In fact, it opened as New York Municipal Airport in 1939 and was not officially named LaGuardia Airport until 1947.

I've used Terminal 5 at JFK twice for JetBlue flights to Las Vegas and San Juan and can confirm that it is the best terminal there. And it got even better with the addition of the TWA Hotel. The TWA Flight Center next to Terminal 5 was thankfully spared from demolition unlike Pan Am's Worldport, and instead of just sitting there, the historic head house designed by Eero Saarinen (who also designed Dulles outside DC and St Louis' famous Gateway Arch) was incorporated into a new hotel. The only hotel within JFK's boundaries, and it's an aviation geek's paradise with a cocktail lounge inside a freakin' Lockheed L-1649 Starliner from the late 50s (the last of the Lockheed Constellation lineup), the preserved retro look of the head house full of TWA nostalgia, as well as a rooftop pool bar with incredible views of takeoffs and landings. I know people don't like it when historic places change, but this was a change done right.

Twice in the last 6 months I had overnight layovers at JFK with literally no place to go. All the nearby hotels were sold out and I couldn't even wait in any of the terminals. The TWA lobby saved me. There was food, clean restrooms, and outlets for charging. The music was like a drug and the clicking of the boards lulled me to sleep. I didn't even need a room.

2 international and 1 major domestic. LaGuardia doesn’t have customs and immigration facilities and therefore cannot be legally considered international although it can *exceptionally* receive pre-cleared flights from Canada and the Caribbean.

1:33 Regarding Dubai, you showed Dubai International which isn't new. The airport has been on that site since 1960, and it received its first big jets in 1965. They only expanded what was on that site. The new airport they built that you're thinking of is Al Maktoum International which opened in 2010 in Jebel Ali. 1:57 JFK has a far bigger flight map than this, this is completely missing South America, Eastern Europe, China, Korea, Southeast Asia, and Africa which you can take flights from JFK to.

IDK that I'd consider LaGuardia Airport international, as they only have pre-cleared flights from Canada (i.e., inbound passengers from Canada don't need U.S. Customs and Border Protection screening at LaGuardia, let alone CBP having no facilities at LGA). Granted, CBP does screen those passengers in Canada, but nowadays, no one in the United States considers Canadian inbound/outbound flights as international flights.

The problem is the history and corruption of nyc.. at one one all the companies that managed the trains were are Manhattan centric and they focused on all the trains being able to go there vs anywhere else .. also , they never really cared for the areas around LaGuardia and JFK.

I’ve was born in NY and had flown in the NY area for 40 years. The best thing for New York would be a regional international hub located at McGuire Air Force Base with new road and high-speed railroad infrastructure servicing New York and Philadelphia, PA.

Great video, but here's one thing Newark Airport is more of an airport for the state of New Jersey than for NYC. Yes, our airport is close to NYC, but it mainly serves NJ since it's the only Major airport in the state.

[@glyphics1943]

I’m a New Yorker who now lives in New Jersey and I can tell you that a lot of New Yorkers prefer EWR to JFK. Also, the Port Authority should have expanded PATH train service to EWR decades ago but Federal funding has made Sky Train and AirTrain links the only alternatives to cars and busses. AMTRAK’s Northeast Corridor rail line (also used by NJ Transit) passes within a stone’s throw of EWR with only the AirTrain connecting the two.

Slight correction JFK is not the airfreight gateway in the country Anchorage is

I would argue DC has a similar setup, though BWI is owned by the state, not MWAA, and has far fewer international flights.

[@Broadvay]

Look DC has 2 airports IAD and DCA out of which IAD is international and DCA is domestic. In nyc's case, there are 3 airports serving domestic and international flights and not to mention the other small airdields and private airports.

In 2026 Sydney Australia will have 2 international airports as well and join the club 😀

[@reonsylvester719]

Very soon New Delhi ( IGIA and Jewar Intl airport) and Mumbai ( CSMIA and Navi Mumbai Int'l airport) will have 2 airports.

[@Broadvay]

yeah, that will be really big, those 2 airports will for sure be the best ones in India

[@gizzinhereye]

You forgot Westchester airport they have 2 domestic airports
