Great alternative to flying out of LGA or JFK. Small airport, short lines and few delays
Emme KimJune 20, 2014After the security line to the far right there's a little food cafe and drink stand
The cell phone waiting lot has a flight information screen, you'll have up to the minute information while you wait.
Once you pass through security the only food option is a little convenance store.
Michael DaigneaultMarch 14, 2012Taxi's are not waiting outside...you first need to check in at Taxi desk inside the airport - rates for most surrounding communities posted on wall - nice touch.
Rich DiGirolamoOctober 30, 2011I have been in third world country airports that provide a more pleasant experience. HPN blows!
Chuck GreinerMay 2, 2013Easy airport to fly from. Wish there were more flights out of here to more places.!- Lisa RaeJuly 28, 2012Don't think cause this is a small airport you'll breeze through. It was a "cluster" today. 1 security line in entire airport for all airlines.
Rental car drivers: there are no gas stations near the airport. Make sure you fill up before you get too close!
David MontoApril 24, 2013You better hope the parking garage is open. Otherwise you have to park off site and take a shuttle.
Faster getting in and out of this airport but I agree tsa not too friendly!
For cheapest parking, use Purchase Park 2 Fly. Easy to use and save a lot. www.PP2F.org
There are very large "secret" bathrooms on the second floor before you go through security. The 1st floor bathrooms are nasty.
Remember once you go through security there are only a couple of vending machines and a small deli with premade food.
Michelle ZhouMay 18, 2012perhaps the most convenient airport in the tri-state area especially if you live near white plains.
Doug RiggsApril 11, 2014If you have a rental car and need to fill up, look for a service station 10 miles out. There is nothing close to the airport.
Easiest airport to get to! About 5 minutes to check in and get through security.
Robert BreretonJune 16, 2011Virtually no long term parking. HPN's flights are usually cheaper than JFK or LGA. Go up a flight to sit. It's usually empty. Go to the gate ONLY when you have to as there is only ONE overcrowded gate
Eric DOctober 29, 2010This is such an easy airport to leave from. 2 gates and 1 baggage claim. So small an fast I love it.
Alicia ArenasJuly 21, 2012This is a tiny airport w limited seating while you wait for your flight. Get food before you come here. They only gave sandwiches & are cash only.
Joan HicksSeptember 21, 2012Not enough seating. A power outlet is rare. No gas stations near. Getting around the standing room only crowd to board is like participating in an obstacle course.
Tom AndersonJanuary 13, 2012My choice except in the winter. Too often they close during snow and you end up having to take a cab to JFK
Sonja GuthrieApril 5, 2012Yellow cab or shuttle car - either way it will cost you $25 to or from Metro North train.
Katie NugentAugust 6, 2012Very convenient to get to. Buy books and food before you get in, there is just a "cash only" food counter. Oh, and basically no outlets.
Long term parking is steep. Park downtown and catch a cab. Or try out Stewart Newburgh airport. Fewer flights but much less hassle and cost.
Eric PelliniOctober 27, 2011Super easy to navigate in and out of this place. Got through bags and security check in 10 minutes.
- Park at La Quinta Armonk for $15 a day instead. Or Purchase College has a parking gig too.
Eric StegemannMay 26, 2011May be the most annoying announcement system in any airport. Gate agents just hit a button on phone every time to make an announcement. Bring ear plugs.
Easy trip from Ridgefield, CT. -Parking can be questionable.
Don't leave anything on the plane or the cleaning crew will steal it.- Chantal BlantonDecember 20, 2011The snack bar is cash only. Check-in online if possible. Delta kiosk check-in only.
Stoph'sMay 6, 2011Bar upstairs. Best poor in the tristate area- Pony up! Chicken fingers and burger good stuff.
christine torinoAugust 7, 2011If possible fly out of hpn. It might cost little more but it's worth it
KatJuly 1, 2013Fast, no lines, but small and crowded. Much less hassle than JFK. Don't arrive too early--entire security to gate process takes less than ten minutes.
Save time at security by leaving your belt on. Mine never sets off the metal detector and they never ask me to take it off.- The Cloud Cafe snack bar inside security is cash only... Be prepared!
Adam SchraderDecember 10, 2013The representative for US Airways was extremely rude and unhelpful. I highly recommend using a different airline. The airport is clean & fast- but I will never come through here again with US Airways.
Not many food options in the terminal. Arrive a little early if you want to enjoy some Dunkin' Donuts before going through security.
