There are no emergency-specific fees. Whether Newark (I think it was EWR, not LGA) would assess a normal landing fee is probably not a consideration for the pilot, especially back then.

Landing fees are quite reasonable. Off peak, the landing fee would be $25 now. On peak, it would be $125.

Wow that's surprisingly low! I was imagining the fee was thousands of dollars.

Where they'll get you (for normal operations) is things like parking fees. At Newark, for an aircraft less than 100,000lbs that is $45/8 hrs.

It depends on your aircraft weight basically
