35-40 minute layover at LaGuardia - Possible?

35-40 minute layover at LaGuardia - Possible? - Black Round Analog Wall Clock On Black Background

I'm planning a flight in October, and one of my options for a layover will get me there much earlier in the day, but it involves a short layover that seems risky for me. It's all domestic, with a 35 minute layover on a Thursday morning (7-8am), through Delta. I'm completely unfamiliar with LGA, and I'm not sure whether it's reasonable to make (I've heard basically that you want an hour layover minimum for JFK/EWR), or whether I should just wait for a later flight in the day. I will also have no checked baggage, so no worries about that not making it either.

I'm mainly wondering if Delta's flights are all clustered at the same few gates, or if I'll have to race across to another terminal.

How long of a layover do I need at Laguardia airport?

For domestic flights the airlines ask you to show up 2 hours ahead of time. You should have a minimum of 2.5 or 3 hours in between flights, imo.

Is a 35 minute layover too short?

The recommended layover time for international flights is generally longer, as you will have to go through customs and immigration before boarding your next flight. In most cases, a 30-minute layover for domestic flights and an hour for international flights is considered a minimum, or short, layover.

Is 35 minutes enough time to connect flights?

Consider allowing at least 60 to 90 minutes for a U.S. domestic connection, and at least two hours for an international connection. Airlines usually allow you four hours or more maximum connecting time.

Can you make a 45 minute layover?

Security-clearance programs are available at select U.S. and international airports. As a rule of thumb, on domestic routes, you need a minimum of 45 minutes between flights. That's because you don't have to go through security, customs, and immigration.
