JFK to Greenport, NY

You can take Airtrain from
You can take Airtrain from your terminal to Jamaica Station and then LIRR to Greenport. There are only two trains on Saturday to Greenport so the next available train that day is the 2:38pm departure from Jamaica to Ronkonkoma where you transfer for the train to Greenport and arrive at 5:05pm. Cost for Airtrain and LIRR is about $20. Since Greenport is way out at the end of the North Fork of Long Island taxi and shuttle van would be pretty expensive, over $100. Take the train!
