3 adults travelling from Sheraton Tribeca to JFK. Is it correct to take the A line subway from Canal St to Howard beach station and change for the A-train to Terminal 7?

How long will this take? Need to check in 16.45.

Do you know with the subway at Canal St A-line and changing at Howard beach station is it difficult with large bags, up/down stairs, through turnstyles?

Arriving in JFK next week...I need to get to Penn Station. From the map it looks like I take AirTrain to the Jamaica Station. Then take the LIRR to Penn Station.

I want to confirm travel is correct. Also, how much does the LIRR cost to Penn Station?

Thanks in advance.
