And LaGuardia landed the sixth slot on the roster with 26.5% of its ascensions being held up for one reason or another.

Investigators with Upgraded Points, a perks maximizing site, found that jet-setters leaving out of LaGaurdia are frequently forced to spend a maddening 23 minutes in holding patterns on the tarmac, anxiously awaiting takeoff.
The analysts attributed the abnormally long taxying time to “limited runway space, which requires more time for planes to maneuver in tighter quarters.”
