re:I need to go from JFK to Yale Campus at New Haven, CT
There is a shuttle going from each terminal to the campus - it is called "Prime Time". Book it with the agents at Ground Transportation(Welcome Center) counter. They also have(if I am not mistaken) another shuttle going there, just ask for all the options.
By train , you have to take Airtrain to Jamaica, subway E to Lexington Ave stop, subway 6(going downtown) to Grand Central and from there Metro-North train to New Haven.

4 3/4 Hour Layover in September
We have a 4.75 hour layover in September (Friday the 10th), arriving from Seattle at 2:45 p.m. and going on to Budapest, both on Delta. Do we have time to go into Manhattan or anyplace away from the airport for a good meal or a scenic view, particularly taking into account that it will be the Friday rush coming back to the airport? We are in business class on frequent flier miles and will be able to use the priority lanes for security. Thanks for any suggestions.
re:4 3/4 Hour Layover in September
See this comment which will go pretty much for your situation.

Question
I need to go to 28 Allen St. at Chinatown. I need to take a Bus to Philadelphia. Wich is the cheapest way to go? And could you explain me, how to go there?
re:I need to go to 28 Allen St. at Chinatown
The cheapest way to go there is the Airtrain + subway. It will cost you $7.15/passenger.
Take Airtrain from any terminal on track 1 to Jamaica Station( be careful - on that track there are two alternating trains going to different routes; check the sign above the doors as the train arrives; the red colored sign is Jamaica one). Then take subway line Z to Delancey street/Essex street stop. Walk west on Delancey three blocks and turn left on Allen Street; walk another three blocks down on Allen street to your address(right after you cross Hester street).
