Getting to JFK
Hi,
I will be arriving by Megabus at 7th Ave & 28th St. New York on Jan. 5th bound to JFK to pick my wife who is expected to land at 5:30pm that day. Once I receive my wife, we have to rush back to catch the megabus at 9th Ave between 31st St and 33rd St. We are complete strangers to New York. Could anyone help us finding out the most economical yet speedy commuting options for these two routes? Thanks in advance! Best, Ron

How do I get from Bus stop to Terminal 1?
Hello,
I will take the Bus from Boston to New York and get to 7th/28th street on Dec 22 at 11:15am. Will you please tell me the best way to get to JFK Airport, Terminal 1 to catch my flight at 3:35pm? I am not familiar at all with public transportation in New York City so your help is very appreciated.
Thank you very much!
The cheapest way is to walk
The cheapest way is to walk up Seventh Avenue to 32nd Street, and then walk one block east to Sixth Avenue (Greeley Square). Enter the subway, buy a Metrocard for $4.50, and board a Queens-bound F train. Get off at Kew Gardens/Union Turnpike (about a 30-minute ride), and then board a JFK-bound Q10 Limited bus, which will get you to JFK Terminal 4 in about 35 minutes. You can then ride the "All Terminals" AirTrain free of charge for the five-minute ride to Terminal 1. You will get a free transfer from the F train to the Q10 Limited, so you will have $2.25 left on the Metrocard for future use.
A faster, but more expensive, route would be to walk up to 31st Street, enter Penn Station, and take a 20-minute ride on the Long Island Rail Road ($6.25) to Jamaica. At Jamaica, board the AirTrain ($5.00) for the 10-minute ride to Terminal 1.
As long as your bus from Boston is more or less on time, the cheaper subway-bus route should get you to Terminal 1 by about 1:00 PM.
Thank you so much!!!
