It seems like the Lyft/Uber is averaging from 25-29 one way. I’ll try Juno on my next trip and report back.

Personally I am not a huge fan of using the metro but will as a last resort. But it probably would come out cheaper in the long run.

Kew Gardens Cab (technically a "car service" not a taxi) was $18 a few months ago. They pick up at the airport, or your crash pad.
718-846-6666

Debora Cab, car service like Kew Gardens, about the same pricing.
718-803-1920

Ester at JFK Car Service was highly recommended by another crew member, but never used them personally.
347-803-9818

The Kew Runner has regular service between both LGA/JFK and Kew Gardens, run by Kew Gardens cab, but slightly cheaper. To get from airport to airport, you will have to change cars in Kew Gardens.
718-846-4900.

Every time I compared prices, Lyft was cheaper than Uber, by quite a bit.

Just be glad you don't have to do EWR.

Exactly what I thought..... it takes longer but much cheaper than a $24 Uber pool ride.

Well, here's the scoop, fresh and hot from the bowels of the NYC reserve list:

LGA-JFK transfers.

Between 11 AM and 7 PM, the NYC express bus/van runs hourly, $13.60 one way with discount code "CREW." Install their app and Google their pickup spots, usually inside the terminal at the ground transportation desk. Talk to the person standing in the appointed spot in the hi-viz vest and let them scan your phone boarding pass and give you a printed ticket. This is apparently the successor of the NYC Airporter people have talked about.

You can also use the Kew Runner. Apparently 24 hours. The number the other guy posted is good for them. They're $18.50 direct to either airport, or $14.00 if you have the time, are coming from the airport itself, and are willing to sit in Kew Gardens to change vehicles.

Yellow Cabs are $55 flat rate between the airports generally. Uber & Lyft around $30 but varies, I've personally seen it as low as $17 (Lyft) and as high as $90 (Uber).

For someone living in NYC, would Envoy’s reserve and work rules be ok? I’m trying to decide which regional to favor.

In certain cases, Envoy's reserve rules are actually better than most other regionals. Living in base and getting paid to sit at home w/ a clean uniform around and not day drink is one of them. Not that you'd necessarily want to do that.

For Envoy, is LGA a co-base with JFK like at Endeavor?
