Tolls
Tolls enroute to destinations within New York City are the responsibility of the passenger. On all trips within the New York City, any bridge and tunnel tolls to the destination shall be paid by the passenger, who shall be informed before the start of the trip.
On all trips within the City of New York, return tolls shall not be charged except for trips over the Cross Bay Veterans, Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial, and Verrazano Narrows Bridges.
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.

going TO JFK
We have to go to Terminal 1 tomorrow, June, 28 from East Harlem. We should be at the airport around 3 p.m.
Is public transport advisable, what does it cost and how is the itinerary?
Is there a flat rate for taxis going out of town to JFK also or does this only work the other way round?
Thank you very much for helping with advice,
Bettina

Yellow cab would not be able
Yellow cab would not be able to fit 5 people. You have to order a so called private car(like Carmel or Dial 7), which can accommodate 5 people. I think, you can order one of these cars at Ground transportation desk(it was mentioned in earlier posts). The price will be not much different than a yellow cab one - around $30 for the whole car.
