Need a Meeting Place at Westchester County Airport

My husband is flying into Westchester County airport. He will be renting a car from National Car Rental. His arrival time will be Thursday, 2/4 at 9:33 a.m.

Where can he meet our son at or close by the airport? He (son) will be driving in to meet his father from CT, but my husband will be headed south toward NY with the rental car. I've read that there is limited parking as well as no waiting parking spaces.

I would appreciate some help.

The Rye Courtyard is located about a mile from the Playland Amusement Park and approximately 25 miles La Guardia International Airport. Greenwich and White Plains are five miles away, Palisades Mall is 13 miles, Bronx Zoo is 20 miles, and New York City is 30 miles from the hotel.Every morning, a reasonably priced breakfast buffet is served in the Courtyard Cafe (dinner and room service are also available). Hotel amenities include cocktail lounge, pool, whirlpool, solarium, complimentary parking, and laundryroom. All rooms have cable TV, work desks, two-line phones, voicemail, dataports, weekday newspaper delivery, complimentary in-room coffee, irons and ironing boards, and hairdryers.

Meet for ?? Breakfast, or to talk or to have coffee or ??

There are lots of places, depending on what they are meeting for and time they need together. Your son will either come down the Merritt to the Hutch, or 684 to 287 or I 95 to 287. It would help if you knew which route he is planning to take. There are places where 95 and 287 meet in Port Chester.

What route will you husband take into NYC - Hutch or 95? That will impact answer too.

I will find out the answers to all the above questions in the morning.

I am assuming there is no where on the airport grounds to meet and no where to park for a short stay (1/2 hr.). The limos must wait somewhere...right?

For only 30 minutes--> how about your son wait in the Cell Phone waiting area; your husband gets his rental car and drives to the Cell Phone Waiting area:

There is short term parking, but it could be full:

For just a quick passing hello the cell phone waiting lot is what you want. It's located at these GPS coordinates. 41.077618,-73.710001

You can plug those #'s into google maps and see the exact location.
