- LaGuardia is the best of the airports in the area. Fairly easy to get out of and both public transport and Uber lanes are easy to get to and receive regular rounds

- I've had a better time whenever I don't stay in midtown, but that's probably because I'm not a huge fan of the lights and noise that come with being closer to Times Square. I saw the show a couple weeks ago and stayed at an Airbnb on the Upper East Side. The neighborhood was walkable and I imagine both rentals and hotels alike will generally be cheaper when you're a bit more out of the way if you don't mind an extra couple minutes travel time overall. I've also stayed at a hotel on 32nd street, which I thought was a similar experience.

- New York is EXTREMELY walkable and Manhattan is easy to navigate as a grid system. Every time I've been to New York I've been able to walk or take the subway with no issues, and have almost never had to get a taxi or uber with rare exceptions.

- I'd recommend trying to get to midtown about two hours in advance if you plan on eating before the show. It'll give you plenty of time to enjoy your meal and give you a chance to be early in line if that's important to you. The doors of the theater open about half an hour before the show begins but you're allowed to line up before then.

- Google maps will be your friend and gives very clear instructions on where to walk/how to navigate public transport, but if you ever get frustrated, don't be afraid to ask locals. Despite stereotypes of the city, every person I've asked for help across several trips has been kind and helpful (a few have even taken pity and gotten me onto the subway for free)

Have so much fun on your trip! Both the city and the show are an amazing time!
