Luggage Storage LaGuardia Airport (LGA)

About LaGuardia Airport

Queens has a reputation for being the largest and the busiest of New York's boroughs. So, it's no surprise that LaGuardia Airport is just as big and busy as the rest of Queens. Currently, the LaGuardia Airport clocks in around 680 acres. Travelers from all around the world have often found themselves exploring this expansive airport the moment they touch down in NY. Just like the rest of New York, LaGuardia Airport also has a fascinating history. The area where the airport was built used to be the Gala Amusement Park and First Lady Eleanor Rosevelt used to frequent LaGuardia back in the day. LaGuardia is a convenient airport for travelers headed to Midtown and Upper Manhattan. It also has the designation of being the country's busiest airport that does not offer nonstop service to Europe.

Fun fact: LaGuardia Airport was built after former New York City Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia insisted that the city have its own major airport, instead of relying solely on Newark Airport in New Jersey.
