Apartments for Rent Near JFK Airport
First up on our tour of travel-ready rentals is this 2-bedroom Forest Hills home. Gorgeous wood floors span the entirety of the apartment, and cute butter yellow cabinets in the kitchen provide a plethora of storage. Modern ceiling light fixtures and large windows illuminate the sheer amount of space available in both bedrooms. A very reasonable rent of $2300 per month includes all utilities. And it’s only around a 20 minute drive — or 45 minute ride via public transit — to JFK.
Next, we’re headed to Jamaica to check out this renovated 1-bedroom residence. Oversized exposures shine light on the updated kitchen, complete with brand-new appliances and a quartz-top breakfast bar. An expansive living area is made even bigger by the private balcony. $2526 per month gets you access to a host of building amenities, such as a fully equipped gym and rooftop lounge. But the best perk of all is that the apartment is just a 15 minute drive to JFK. If you prefer to take public transit, it’s only 30 minutes to the airport.
Quaint Queens living for under $2000 per month? Yes, please! This Forest Hills 1-bedroom is ready for immediate move-in, so act fast. It’s got multiple closets for convenient storage, brand new tile in the bathroom, and a dishwasher in the large kitchen. It’s also just a few blocks away from the massive Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. Better yet, it’s only 17 minutes to JFK by car, and 50 minutes by NYC trains and buses.

This Astoria apartment is a quick 7-minute drive, or 25-minute public transit trip, to the recently renovated LaGuardia Airport. Located on the top floor of the building, the unit has a spacious, traditional layout made up of fully separate rooms. The bathroom boasts all-new tiling and a bathtub for optimal relaxation. And for $2350 per month, you get access to a sunny bedroom big enough for a queen-size bed and multiple furnishings.
Last up on our list of travel-convenient rentals is this gem of an Astoria studio. For $2400 per month, you get access to an open-concept kitchen featuring exposed wood cabinets and chic brown backsplash. The stylish touches continue in the bathroom, which boasts moody gray tiling and designer lighting.
