Default NYC travel Q

Q: Can I get from 335 Madison (Midtown) at 5PM to LaGuardia in time to make a 7:45PM flight or is it too tight? Haven't booked it yet.

What day? and where is the flight to?

Directions are good, I would give myself an extra 30 min at least.

Potentially tomorrow. I was supposed to be there today but my oldest had to go to ER for bad Croup. I'm gonna check on other flight possibilities.

I don't mean to scare you but if there is an option for a later flight I would take it. I haven't been out of LaGuardia in a few years, Islip and JFK have always worked out better. However I would say if you going to shoot for tomorrow it may work out with the weather. Supposed to rain later in the afternoon, maybe you'll catch some minutes there and with no crowds on a Wednesday you will pass thru security a bit faster than usual.
