  • Bill: Carmel Car Service http://www.carmellimo.com/ 1-866-666-6666 It also gives miles if you book online ;)
  • Depending on the time of the day, From Midtown to LGA can take from 15 minutes to one and a half hour. 15 minutes is excellent time.
  • Bill, I called a car service; $33 plus tip. As usual, the driver gave me a choice of going over a non-fare bridge (the Williamsburg) or taking the faster Midtown Tunnel, for which he'd have added on a toll. I chose the Williamsburg.
    Note that I'm returning to NYC via JFK, and I'll take the train in, because although JFK is much further from Manhattan than LGA, it's also -- as you know -- a helluva lot easier to get to.
  • Now, Ed: how did you get to LGA? Cab? I need more info! Any tricks we can apply to your recipe for travel ease?
  • Greenwich Village to LGA in less than 15 minutes, fast check-in, minimal security line, plug for computer. When did you last have such good luck?
  • I have just posted brand new travel deals for New Year's Eve Times Square travel packages in NYC! Check out our best value: Four Nights New Year's Eve in New York Hotel Package
  • With good reason, Evelyn. hahaa-- yes, Bill 17th at Union Sq.
  • Hey, maybe I'll meet you two at Dogmatic! What street is it on - 17th? Near Union Square?
  • Dana -- Looks like it's you and me for Dogmatic.

    Meryl -- Are you secretly from Chicago? No real New Yorker would recommend a Chicago-style hot dog, even from Shake Shack.
  • Let's walk to Dogmatic, Meryl, and make the comparison!
