Hi, I am flying in from JFK at 21:00 on 3/14/12. I need to get to Quality Inn Woodside Queens Hotel, 5305 Queens Boulevard. What would be the easiest and cheapest way to get there from JFK International Airport? Thank`s!

Easiest is by NYC taxi, around $40. Cheapest is by public transportation, $7.25: take AirTrain from terminal on track 1 to Jamaica Station ($5), transfer to inbound E subway ($2.25), at Roosevelt Ave/Jackson Hgts transfer to the inbound #7 subway and go three stops to 52nd St, walk down 52nd St one block to Queens Blvd and turn left, hotel is about a block and a half.

I am flying out of terminal 8 with AB at 5.30pm Wednesday. I will be coming down from Hudson with Amtrak, but my times for that are flexible. How long should I allow to get to the airport (LIRR+AirTrain), and when should I latest be at terminal 8?

When it snows, how can you get your car out of long term parking? Are there people you can hire with shovels to help?

Hi,

I will be arriving jfk terminal 4 from heathro london @ 17:50 hours on 19 Jan 2012 .Do I have enough time to catch my Delta flight from terminal 3 @ 20:00 hours departing to Boston ?

If you arrive on time from London you should be ok. After you clear customs in T4 go to the 3rd floor and take AirTrain on track 2 one stop to T3.
