re: need to get to JFK from Greenwich, CT by public transport
At Ground transportation (Welcome Center) counter you can book either "CT Limo" or "Prime Time" shuttles which will take you to Greenwich ,CT. "Prime Time" has also door-to-door service shared ride van which is a little bit more expensive.

Traveling to Jamaica via AJ from Hoboken, NJ - need help please
Good afternoon,
My family and I (three of us) will be traveling to Jamaica soon. Our flight is through Air Jamaica. We depart at 6AM. We live in Hoboken, NJ. We are thinking of either grabbing a taxi to the airport, taking train/shuttle, or driving and parking in long term parking. Can you please provide information for each in terms of time, cost, convenience? We typically travel out of Newark (EWR); however, wanted a non stop flight to Montego Bay so needed to fly out of JFK.
Also, what time should we arrive at the airport since our flight is at 6AM (on a Thursday)?
We really appreciate your help, thank you!
By train you can take the
By train you can take the PATH from Hoboken to 33rd St./Penn Station, then LIRR to Jamaica and Airtrain from there to your terminal. Per person, PATH is $1.75, LIRR $5.25 and Airtrain $5. Considering your flight leaves at 6am and you'd ideally need to be at JFK by 4am taxi or driving might be your fastest and easiest mode of transportation. Long term parking is $18 per day and you can take Airtrain from the lot to all terminals. Taxi would probably cost $80+. Travel time at that hour by car or taxi is about one hour, double that by train as PATH and LIRR runs every 30 minutes late night and Airtrain is 10-15 minutes from Jamaica to terminals.
How do I get to Cambridge,Ny from JFK
I need direction about how to get to cambridge,NY from JFK.I'm flying to USA for the first time from Turkey and I have 1 big luggage.I'm going to turnpike road in Cambridge to be exact. Please I need direction and how to go about transportation. Thanks in advance.
By train: go to Penn
By train: go to Penn Station (Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica Station and either LIRR or E subway to Penn Station) and take the Amtrak-Adirondack train to Saratoga Springs and then local transportation from there to Cambridge. This train runs northbound from NY only once a day leaving at 8:15am and arrives in Saratoga Springs around 12noon. By bus: go to Port Authority Bus Terminal (Airtrain to Jamaica and E subway to 42nd St./Port Authority or NYAS express bus from terminal to Port Authority). Greyhound/Adirondack Trailways has bus service with a stop in Saratoga Springs (no transfer) or Greyhound to Saratoga Springs with a transfer in Albany. Check www.greyhound.com for schedules and fares.
form JFK to Penn station
Hey guys I´m arriving to JFK at 1am on saturday and need to get to Penn station by 6am. could you please tell me the easiest, cheaper and safer way to get there?
Thanks a bunch!
Since there's no shuttle bus
Since there's no shuttle bus at that hour, a taxi will cost you $50+tip but is safe, the safest public transportation route is Airtrain from your terminal to Jamaica Station and then LIRR to Penn Station. Trains to Penn from Jamaica run about every half hour even in the middle of the night ($10.25 w/Airtrain). The E subway also runs from Jamaica to Penn but some folks wouldn't ride the subway in the middle of the night and it's tough if you have luggage ($7.25 w/Airtrain). LIRR trains have overhead racks.
From JFK to East Brunswick, nj

Getting to and from JFK
My family and I (4 people) are looking for best way to get to Madison Avenue hotel from JFK on 15th Aug AND best way then to get to La Guardia from hotel on 17th Aug.
Has anyone any good suggestions please?
Also any idea of costs?
We will each have a large suitcase!!
The best way for four people
The best way for four people with luggage is to take a taxi(yellow cab) - it will cost you flat fare of $50.50 for all four of you(from JFK to the hotel in Manhattan).
From the hotel to LGA the taxi will charge you on the meter - expect to pay between $35-$45.
