On trips beyond the City of New York, all necessary tolls to and from the destination shall be paid by the passenger.
Flat Fare from JFK Airport:
The Taxi & Limousine Commission is conducting a Flat Fare program for trips between (to and from) the Manhattan and JFK International Airport.
The flat fare is $45.00 plus any tolls. The meter will not be turned on and the night surcharge will not be added.
If passengers request multiple stops, the flat rate of $45.00 will be collected at the first stop in either Manhattan or John F. Kennedy Airport, and the meter will be turned on for the remainder of the trip. The metered fare should be collected at the last stop, from the last passenger.

Request of information
Hello
We will arrive at JFK next week could you please tell us the options of transport and wich one is better and faster to Hampton Inn Manhattan/Times Square South
337 West 39th Street, New York?
Thanks
Pedro Silva
re: arrive at JFK next week could you please tell us the options
1. Taxi(~40minutes)
Yellow cab (from JFK to any point to Manhattan) costs flat rate of $45 + bridge toll($5.50). The price is for the whole taxi, not per passenger.
2. Public(~1hr-1:15hrs)
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 E to 42nd street stop. Cost-$7.25/passenger.
3. Shuttle(~1hr-1:30hrs)
There is shuttle(look for it at Ground transportation
counter or Welcome Center) that goes to any hotel in Manhattan for $18.50 per passenger.
4. Express Bus(50min-1hr.)
NYAS(New York Airport Service) bus will take you express to Times Square for $15/passenger. The bus leaves every 20 min in front of each JFK terminal. You can buy tickets on the bus or from their representative in front of the terminal.

From JFK to Jersey City (Greene Street)
Hi,
I would like to know the tariff for Taxis from JFK Airport to Jersey City, Greene Street. We would be arriving on 12 June at 03 pm. We are 2 people having 4 luggage, 2 standard, 2 small.
1. Is there any standard rate from Airport (with authorized operators/providers)
2. Is there any outlet available in the Airport who will sell Pre-paid GSM Sim. And if so, what documents are required?
Thanks a lot for your help.
re:Taxis from JFK Airport to Jersey City, Greene Street
The yellow cab will take you there and will charge you on the meter(no flat fee, exp.~$70-$90).
There are private cars at the airport that will give you a set fare at the time of arrangement.

Give yourself at least 40 min for customs/immigration formalities.
On yellow cab there is no other rate(to Manhattan) but flat one - $50.50.

Hi! I will be landing in JFK
Hi!
I will be landing in JFK tomorrow and have to go to Lebanon, New Jersey. How much will the taxi cost and how long will it take approx.?
If I take a taxi from NY city to NJ, will every taxi take me to NJ or are there limits regarding distance and they might just refuse to take me to NJ?
THANK YOU!!!!
re: have to go to Lebanon, New Jersey.
Taxi will be expensive, not that they won't take you .
Check out the Trans-Bridge bus . It goes from JFK to Allentown,PA and it stops in Clinton,NJ and I am sure it basses by Lebanon,NJ.
