LGA to JFK on July 4th – should I rebook?

Hey folks, I’m flying on July 4th and getting a bit anxious about my connection in New York. Here’s what I’ve got booked: * 3:00 pm: St. John’s to Toronto * 6:49 pm: Toronto to LaGuardia (arrives 8:31 pm) * 11:50 pm: JFK to Lima So yeah, that gives me just over 3 hours to get from LGA to JFK, on a holiday. I know traffic can be insane on the 4th of July and I’m not sure if this was a dumb idea. Is this doable or should I rebook now while I still have time? Also, if I don’t make it, does Delta usually help out in this kind of situation or would I just be stuck paying for a new flight? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. --- **Post Details:** - **Subreddit:** r/travelhacks - **Author:** u/Competitive-Jump1146 - **Score:** 5 upvotes - **Upvote Ratio:** 65.0% - **Comments:** 37 - **Posted:** 7/4/2025 - **URL:** https://reddit.com/r/TravelHacks/comments/1lr56p0/lga_to_jfk_on_july_4th_should_i_rebook/
