How much does taxi + subway cost?
The NYC subway costs the same no matter where you take it. The regular fare is $2.25 per ride. A taxi between LGA and Jackson Heights or Astoria should cost about $12 or less (determined by the meter). A livery cab from Jackson Heights to LGA should be $12 (as of summer 2006), which is negotiated between the driver and passenger before starting out (see below).
