Transportation

Three airports service New York: John F. Kennedy International Airport, LaGuardia Airport, and Newark International Airport. Transportation options range from shuttles to taxis to limos. From JFK, taxi fare typically is approximately US$40; from LaGuardia, US$40; and from Newark, US$75. There is not a rental car facility at the Marriott Marquis, but the concierge can assist you with nearby rental cars.

Weather

New York weather in April is usually between 45°F (7°C) and 60°F (16°C), and rain can be a factor. Yet late April should be warmer weather. Be ready for cool, warm, clear, and rain.

Bring a spouse or guest

Share your business trip to New York with a spouse or guest. INMA has put together a special Partners Programme designed to give them a flavour of New York during the day and accompany you to the important social functions in the evening. See more information about the Partner's Programme here.
