The airport was formally dedicated as New York International Airport on July 31, 1948. It was re-dedicated on December 24, 1963 as John F.

Greyhound bus station
I am planning to go from JFK to Bangor, ME taking a bus. Is there a Greyhound Bus station at the airport, how to get to?
If there is not, how can I get to the nearest Greyhound station from which the buses take Bangor destination?
Thanks
Darya
You will need to go to Port
You will need to go to Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan. From the airport you can take a taxi (about $50 plus tip), NYAS bus or public transportation by taking the Airtrain to Jamaica Station and E subway to 42nd St./Port Authority station ($7.25). Check the Greyhound website for schedules from NY to Bangor.
