Best Routes
Hi,
we are a family of 5 flying into JFK on July 25th arrive at 9am. Our connecting flight to Copenhagen is at 7pm. We would like to take a taxi to Statue of Liberty and after that take another taxi to Empire State Building. Can you please advise, cost and best route and if this is advisable time wise. On another subject I would assume these 2 places would be the best places to visit being our first time in New York. Thanks

We are a 4 people family, i need to go from JFK and Madison Avenue, Larchmont 10538, which is the average fare for this trip? Thanks
flat fate of $50.50.
flat fate of $50.50.
re:family of 5 flying into JFK
You will be able to take a private car from JFK(since an yellow cab won't accomodate 5 people); arrange at Ground transportation(Welcome Center) at any terminal. The price will be flat - around $55-$60 for the whole car. To go to the Statue of Liberty the car has to drop you off at Battery Park(the most southern tip of Manhattan) where you will take a boat ride to the Statue of Liberty.
