Recommendation
For the most efficient and practical option, I recommend taking a direct flight from Long Island MacArthur Airport (ISP) to Tampa International Airport (TPA) with either Delta Airlines or JetBlue Airways. While ground transportation is possible, the long duration and transfers can be cumbersome. If you're looking for cost-effective options, booking the flight in advance can yield better pricing and there are often promotional fares available.
