Andrew Cuomo are set to announce bold changes for LaGuardia Airport Monday. The leaders will be speaking at the luncheon for the Association for a Better New York at the Times Square Sheraton and make an infrastructure announcement for the airport. Biden likened LaGuardia to a "third world country" last year and a few months later, Cuomo proposed a design competition seeking proposals to modernize the airport. The Port Authority, which manages LaGuardia, declined to comment about the announcement.
