SWF or HPN, Which is Better?

HPN is more busy than SWF?

Yes, however the majority of the operations at HPN are bizjets, not airline flights.

I've never had to wait on a long line at HPN in the past few years. When I took TRS from HPN to MCO for the NBAA convention in October, I went through security in less than 5 minutes and the flight was right on time, we even landed 15 minutes early.

That is true however they do have more commercial flights then SWF does.

Correct. I believe a few carriers are trying to make SWF the "4th major NYC airport" but I don't currently know the status of that goal.

I have used both and amazingly live in Patterson NY !!!! Depends if you need a hire car or not. I think HPN has a better service on that side but if you are getting picked -up then I think it would be hard to chose between either. Probably just depend on your schedule compared with the timetables.
