transport from boston, New Orleans, La Guardia airports

Thanks for your advice and we%26#39;re going to all of the above!





Would now like to know how to get from the airports to the hotels, as cheaply - but easily too- bearing in mind that we %26#39;ve never been to USA before and don%26#39;t know how things work.





Boston airport to Boston St, Boston,





New Orleans airport to Rue dauphine in the French Quarter,





La Guardia to W32nd St, Manhattan





Thanks



Phil



transport from boston, New Orleans, La Guardia airports


From LGA (La Guardia) to Manhattan, most people take a taxi since it%26#39;s not so well connected by public transport. It%26#39;s not far. The cost is $25-35 depending on traffic. You could take an Express Airport bus for $$12/person but if there are 2 of you, a taxi is almost the same price. Here%26#39;s the page for the buses. The stop at Penn Station would be closest to your hotel.

For the other directions, be sure to post your question on the Boston and New Orleans forums.




From LGAm, you can take the bus and transfer to the subway, $2.00 per person, though a cab is easier.





Boston there is a shuttle bus to their subway (the T).





New Orleans, I%26#39;ve always taken a cab, it%26#39;s a set rate, though there may be bus transportation available. There is no subway in New Orleans





I would go to the respective airport web sites, they will list all the transportation options available




The airport in N.O. is in Kenner a (suburb) and public transit into the city will be a nighmare as it is not as developed as in other cities. I would take either a shuttle or a taxi from the airport.




ive always done the shuttle from NO airport to the French Quarter.



for transportation in NYC, go to NYC overview at the top left of this page, it gives you all options and info. (didnt know this until last week)




phil38...re: New Orleans ground transportation...go to http://www.airportshuttleneworleans.com/ for shuttle info.





Taxi is a flat $28 for 1-2 people, extra charge (I think it%26#39;s $12) for additional passengers. Taxis are on the ground floor of the airport, just outside the baggage pickup area.

Glad you are coming to visit!




From Logan Airport to Downtown Boston,there is a shuttle bus to the T(subway) which goes into Downtown Boston. I don%26#39;t know where Boston Street is but you can go to Government Center and change.





New Orleans airport,take the shuttle to your hotel-I think it%26#39;s around $12 each wawy or if there are 3 or 4 of you,take a cab. The public bus doesn%26#39;t go to the French Quarter,it goes downtown and it is a long walk.





LGA,there is a shuttle,$12,which goes to Port Authority on 42nd Street and you can get the subway. Or you can take the Q33 to Roosevelt Station in Queens or the Q60 bus into Manhattan from



LGA and get the subway. Buy a Metrocard at a newstand in the airport,it%26#39;ll cost $2 each
