There is no charge to ride the AirTrain between any terminal and Federal Circle station. The $5.00 AirTrain fare is collected only when entering or leaving the AirTrain system at either of its two terminals: Howard Beach or Jamaica.

it is free

From JFK to Federal Circle is free. Alight at federal circle and follow signs for shuttle buses.

Are there restrooms at the Airtrain
Federal Circle Station ?
Thanks

Yes.

My son flies with Jet Blue into terminal 5 next month. He will need to collect his baggage and make his way to Singapore Airlines (terminal 4). Can you please give me specific directions from Jet Blue baggage claim to the Air Train to Terminal 4?

Follow the signs to the air train and have him take an air train on track 2 from terminal 5 to terminal 4.

I have to take the Airtrain to Howard Beach Station and I'm arriving in terminal 7, where can I find that train and where can I buy a ticket?

From Howard Beach Station I have to take the A train to W 125th street, where do I have to buy a ticket for that train?

Thank you!

Follow the signs in Terminal 7 for the AirTrain station. Board a Howard Beach AirTrain. Upon arrival at Howard Beach, you will have to purchase a Metrocard to pay the $5.00 AirTrain fares. The Metrocard vending machines will give you the option of purchasing a $7.25 Metrocard, which would cover your AirTrain and subway fare; a Metrocard for a greater amount, if you plan on taking additional subway or bus rides during your stay; or a $5.00 Metrocard for AirTrain, and an unlimited Metrocard, if you will be riding the subway or buses a lot during your stay.

Hi

I will arrive on Delta from Ireland on Sun 17 Jul and need to get to Penn station. How do I get there and how long will it take me? Thanks.

1)taxi is $45+tolls+tip, about 45 minutes to one hour depending on traffic.
2)NYAirports bus is $15, about one hour.
3)AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Jamaica Station ($5) then transfer to LIRR to Penn Station ($3.50 "City Ticket" fare on weekends only from Jamaica to Penn Station or Atlantic Terminal-Brooklyn), about 45 minutes to one hour depending on frequency of trains.

With the third option, is that 45 minutes to one hour TOTAL, or from the time you get on the LIRR? Thank you!
