The Far Rockaway or Rockaway Park-bound A train always stops at Howard Beach. The Lefferts Blvd.-bound A train does NOT stop at Howard Beach. Be sure you take the correct train to get to JFK!

How can i get to jfk from 168th Street and St. Nicholas Avenue ?

Take the downtown C subway from 168th St. to 50th St., transfer to the Jamaica bound E subway to Sutphin Blvd/JFK, transfer to Airtrain to all terminals.

The hotel is located next to Teterboro Airport on Route 17. Cheapest is by train; take Airtrain ($5) from your terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer there to either the E subway ($2.25) or LIRR ($8 peak/$5.75 off peak) to Penn Station, then take any NJ Transit train to Secaucus, go to the lower level and take NJ Transit-Pascack Valley line train towards Spring Valley which stops at Teterboro station ($6.25 from Penn Sta.), then local taxi from there or call the hotel to see if the shuttle bus will get you.

I need to get from JFK to West 75 Street. Can you tell me what it would cost me and my 3 friends with luggage to take a taxi there? Or is it easy and more economical to take the trains? Thanks

Taxi for all of you would be $45+tolls+tip. Airtrain/subway is $7.25 each.

I,d like to know the best way to go from JFK to Tribeca. Thank you.

Take Airtrain from terminal to Howard Beach Station, transfer to the Manhattan-bound A subway to Chambers St.

how can we get to Driggs Avenue / South 5th in Williamsburg Brooklyn NY 11211 on a Monday at 2.30 or 3 pm?

Taxi is on the meter, probably around $40-50. You can also take public transportation; Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, J subway to Marcy Ave. Walk up Broadway towards the Williamsburg Bridge to Driggs Ave., turn right, walk under the bridge to S. 5th St.

Hi, I need to get to JFK from Greenwich, CT by public transport and would prefer not to go all the way into NYC. What do you recommend?

Go to the Ground Transportation counter for transportation options, such as Super Shuttle which is a shared ride service, and other shuttle service to Greenwich.

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!
