| Service day / direction | Official timepoints to use | First and late service pattern | Approximate ride time | Best rider advice |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Weekdays to LaGuardia Airport | Broadway / W 106 St → E 125 St / Lexington Av → LaGuardia Airport Terminal B | The weekday table begins shortly after midnight and continues through late evening. Because the PDF uses bold for p.m. hours, always open the official schedule for exact AM/PM reading. | Around 40–60 minutes from Broadway / W 106 St to Terminal B, depending on traffic, direction, and time of day. | Arrive 5–10 minutes early; use 10–15 minutes with luggage or when catching a flight. |
| Weekdays to Morningside Heights | LGA Terminal B → Hoyt Av / 31 St → W 106 St / Broadway | The westbound weekday table also begins around midnight and continues through late evening with timepoint-based trips. | Around 40–55 minutes from Terminal B to W 106 St / Broadway under typical scheduled conditions. | At LaGuardia, add walking time from baggage claim or terminal exit to the MTA bus stop. |
| Saturday service | Separate Saturday tables are published in both directions. | Saturday service starts after midnight and continues through the day; spacing changes between overnight, morning, daytime, and late evening periods. | Usually similar to weekday scheduled running time, but traffic and airport congestion can change the ride. | Check Bus Time on the same day because weekend events can affect 125th Street and airport roads. |
| Sunday service | Separate Sunday tables are published in both directions. | Sunday trips are listed from early overnight periods through late evening, with wider spacing at some times. | Allow 40–60 minutes for full Manhattan-to-LGA trips, then add airport walking/check-in buffer. | For Sunday flights, check the exact terminal and live arrival before leaving your hotel or subway transfer. |
