Morning or evening flight on ROC–LGA?

Operators schedule evening departures around 18:05 from ROC. Earlier flights typically land before destination-airport delays accumulate later in the day; check the LGA delay card to confirm conditions when you'd arrive.

How long is the flight from ROC to LGA?
