Getting ready for New York's LaGuardia Airport (LGA).

Sensory help, in LGA's words

“There is a sensory room located in Terminal C, post-security on level 3. To access the sensory room, you may find any Delta agent in the terminal. Delta Red Coat agents are stationed near the sensory room and throughout Terminal C.”

“Sensory spaces are designed to create a quiet, low‑stimulation setting for travelers who may find the airport environment overwhelming.”

“We are proud to offer sensory bags in Terminal B to help travelers with sensory needs. These sensory bags include noise-cancelling headphones, fidget-tools, sunglasses, and visual cue cards and communication aids.”

“LGA provides Hidden Disabilities Sunflower lanyards to support travelers with non-visible disabilities, including autism, PTSD, hearing loss, and chronic conditions. The lanyard serves as a discreet signal to airport staff that you may require extra assistance, patience, or time while navigating the airport.”

• Terminal B has a meditation room ("a peaceful space to relax, reflect, and recharge before your flight"), family restrooms and nursing rooms, and children's play spaces. Its water feature is a show of cascading water with lights, music and video. From security, it's 4 to 6 minutes' walk to Gates 11 to 31 and 6 to 9 minutes to Gates 40 to 59. In Terminal B, free Sunflower lanyards are at the pre-security Guest Services Desks.
• Wearing a Sunflower lanyard is your family's choice, and LGA names autism among the non-visible disabilities it's for.
• Terminal B is run by LaGuardia Gateway Partners, which brought in the sensory bags with KultureCity; the bags can be found at the GX Desk (Level 3) or on the concourse, on request, and the KultureCity App explains what to expect from curbside to gate.

Four things to know

1. A sensory room in Terminal C, after security on Level 3: find any Delta agent in the terminal to get in; Delta Red Coat agents are stationed near the room.
2. Sensory bags in Terminal B (noise-cancelling headphones, fidget tools, sunglasses, visual cue cards and communication aids), daily from 4:30 am to 10 pm ET at the Guest Service Desks at Departures (Level 3), Gates 11 to 31 and Gates 40 to 59.
3. Free Sunflower lanyards at the Information Centers in Terminals A and C (arrivals) and in Terminal B at the Guest Experience desk and the Level 1 Information Center.
4. To get a lanyard by mail, ask at least 14 days before you travel, with LGA's request form or by emailing aviada@panynj.gov your full name, address and flight details. It mails to domestic addresses only, and LGA can't guarantee it arrives in time.
