- Roads/Routes: Major routes include I-10 E from East Los Angeles to the airport, and then from Albany Airport via I-90 W to Gloversville.
Pro Tip: If travelling with extra luggage, consider checking Southwest Airlines’ policy on checked bags, as they allow two free checked bags, which can save costs.
For this journey, I recommend booking a one-way flight to Albany International Airport (ALB) with Southwest Airlines. After landing, rent a car from Enterprise to drive to Gloversville, which is about a 4-hour drive. Enjoy the scenic routes as you pass through the beautiful landscapes of New York State!
