Hello,
I'm travelling to N.Y. on Sunday November 14th, 2010 arriving at JFK at 16.00.
My hotel is Courtyard by Marriott
631 Midland Avenue
Rye, NY 10580
Can you please help me about the trains and generally about my transport from Airport to the hotel?
Thank you in advance

You can inquire about shuttle services to Rye at Ground Transportation. By train you can take the MTA-Metro North/New Haven line train from Grand Central Station to Rye and local transportation from there to hotel. NYAS express bus to Grand Central is also located at Ground Transportation. Or by subway take AirTrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to E subway to Lexington/53rd St, transfer to the downtown #6 subway to 42nd St/Grand Central.

I will be arriving at JFK via AA on December 12th at 10:40pm and need to go to NJ, 2600 TONNELLE AVENUENORTH BERGEN, NUEVA JERSEY 07047 . Public transportation (underground) seems like the cheapest for the long ride. I will be carrying a small luggage.

Could someone please tell me which line to take from JFK and where to connect. We need to go to The Best Western Convention Centre.

Take AirTrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to inbound E subway to 42nd St, walk south on 8th Ave to 38th St and turn right, hotel is between 10th & 11th Aves.

Hello I will be travelling next week arriving late to JFK i need to get into Englewood NJ WHATS the best transportation option can't afford to spend a fortune on taxi

Take the air train then connect to the E train...take E train and then get off at 42nd street...on the same blue line take the A uptown to GWB/Port Authority Stop (which is at 181st and then get off and walk up starts to take the bus (NJ Transit) over the bridge to Englewood...
There are a couple that go to different place, the one you probably want is the one that goes to the monument on Palisades Ave

Hello , I will arrive at JFK on Nov. 17th at 3:30 pm how to reach to Path train to Pavonia stattion at New Jeresy.

Thanks,

Take AirTrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to either LIRR (faster than subway and trains have overhead luggage racks) or E subway to Penn Station, walk to PATH station at 6th Ave/33rd St, take the PATH-Yellow train to Pavonia.

I'm arriving to JFK Terminal 4, I have 3 and half hours to do my papers pick my luggage and head to terminal 3, is this enugh time? and what is the fastest way to do so?

You should have plenty of time. Go to third floor of T4 and take AirTrain on track 2 one stop to T3.

HAVE 4 AND 7 YEAR OLD IS THERE A CHARGE TO RIDE AIRTRAN

No charge to ride AirTrain between terminals, rental cars and long term parking. $5 per person to Howard Beach or Jamaica.

I am landing at JFK on December and wondering the best way to get to Washington,DC (by bus and how to get the bus to Washington DC from JFK)

Boltbus and Megabus depart from outside Penn Station to DC. You can take the NYAS express bus from all terminals to Penn Station or AirTrain from terminal to JFK and either LIRR or E subway to Penn Station.
