Flights from Toronto to New York: the best tips from KAYAK users' own experiences

Insights shared by verified travelers who flew the route from Toronto to New York 
VishanFlew with Porter Airlines-Jun 2026
If you’re flying through New York, LaGuardia Airport is night and day compared to many older airports. It’s clean, spacious, and has plenty of food and beverage options. I also found both drop-off and pick-up to be very easy and efficient, making the overall travel experience much smoother.
EireneFlew with United Airlines-May 2026
EWR has been renovated and is now much more pleasant and less confusing to get from gate to gate. Our afternoon YYZ-EWR is a shuttle between these cities so reliability is better. Many passengers use this to connect to onward flights to Europe so gates are arranged closer by. It’s a good itinerary to take.
TommyFlew with United Airlines-Nov 2025
Get to the gate early as they tend to board very quickly if you need over head bin space
AshleyFlew with Delta-May 2025
Pick the airport closest to where you want to stay - choose LGA, JFK or Newark. Remember to account for traffic when choosing!
