I have to agree. I'd like to leave from ISP, but there is never a nonstop unless it is southwest, and never cheap flights....I always am going during peak. Sheesh. But...the new southwest terminal is beautiful....
I'm in Brooklyn, 2 minutes from the Belt Pkway I'm flying with Spirit out of LGA. It was cheaper than Jet Blue at the time. Next time, I'd like to go with JB out of JFK, it's closer to me.
