Our YouTube channel continues to add new automated live streams, each featuring a camera that shows all the activity at an airport 24 hours a day. The first four streams were from Las Vegas (LAS/KLAS), Sint Maarten (SXM/TNCM), Lanzarote (ACE/GCRR), and New Orleans (MSY/KMSY), which were later joined by streams from Reno (RNO/KRNO) and New York-LaGuardia (LGA/KLGA). For more information about these live streams and how to add a camera in partnership with Flightradar and CamStreamer, you can check this link.
New York’s LaGuardia Airport is one of the city’s main airports. It is located in Queens, just 13 kilometers from Manhattan, making it the closest airport to downtown. It has three terminals (A, B, and C), with more than 70 boarding gates in total.
According to our database, LaGuardia Airport had approximately 6,600 flight movements last week, including 3,300 takeoffs and 3,300 landings. This represents approximately 500 takeoffs and landings per day, with peaks of around 540 for each.
The airport has two runways, each 2,134 meters (7,000 feet) long, with thresholds 04-22 and 13-31. Usually, during the day, takeoffs occur on one runway and landings on the other, with less than a minute between them when takeoffs and landings are consecutive.
The history of New York’s LaGuardia Airport—which operated under different names in its early years—began about a century ago with the opening of Glenn H. Curtiss Airport, formerly a park. Shortly thereafter, Glenn H. Curtiss Airport was renamed North Beach Airport, which it maintained for a few years.
In 1937, New York City proposed a project to expand one of its airports, and North Beach Airport was selected. The new New York City Municipal Airport was opened in 1939 and commenced operations on October 15th of that year. Its first flight arrived on December 2nd, carried out by a Trans World Airlines (TWA) aircraft.
New York Municipal Airport was renamed LaGuardia Airport in 1947, as it has been known ever since.
LaGuardia Airport offers domestic and international flights, with a predominance of routes within the United States, particularly along the East Coast and through the center of the country. Its international services are mainly to Canada, in addition to one flight per week to the Caribbean.
As for airlines operating at the airport, Air Canada (AC/ACA), American Airlines (AA/AAL), Delta Air Lines (DL/DAL), Frontier (F9/FFT), jetBlue (B6/JBU), Porter (PD/POE), Southwest Airlines (WN/SWA), and United Airlines (UA/UAL) provide flights from and to LaGuardia. The main airlines, based on the number of weekly flights, are American Airlines and Delta Air Lines, including their own aircraft as well as those operated by airlines serving flights for them, such as Endeavor Air, Republic Airways, and SkyWest Airlines.
