Since this is company-paid trip, I don't mind a little fare difference, but I'm curious for future travel. Do AA transfer my bags and provide complimentary shuttle voucher between LGA and JFK? Or I need to take my bags at LGA and pay extra for shuttle to JFK? If AA's not providing baggage and passenger transfer, some people not taking much care on this kind of airport transfer can be caught with the cheap price ifself.
AA provides nothing for LGA-JFK connections. You have to claim your bags and schlep them yourself to the other airport in a taxi (reasonable) or bus (even cheaper). Buyer beware.
