JFK to a few destinations
Hi I am flying in on a Friday morning and would like to visit NYC for the day and then somehow get to the Poconos the same night. What would be the cheapest way to get from JFK (Northwest Airlines) to see (not necessarily in this order) 1. Statue of Liberty 2. Empire State Building 3. Times Square 4. Central Park 5. Colombia Presbyterian Hospital and then to the Poconos? I know that is asking a lot- at least it would be cool to know which stop is the closest from the airport- I can start there.

Where in NJ are you going?
Where in NJ are you going? First you need to get to Penn Station for NJ Transit or Amtrak train service. Take Airtrain from your terminal to Jamaica Station and either E subway or LIRR to Penn Station, or you can take the NYAS express bus from your terminal to Penn Station. Check www.njtransit.com for schedules and fares to your NJ destination.

getting to Weehawken, NJ
Question please, need to get from JFK to Weehawken NJ. Advice please on the cheapest way to get there, thanx.
Cheapest is by public
Cheapest is by public transportation which includes subway/ferry OR subway/PATH train. Here you go: by ferry-take Airtrain from your terminal to Howard Beach Station. Take A subway to Chambers St. Walk west on Chambers towards World Financial Center/Battery Park City (located on the west side of the WTC site). The NY Waterway ferry terminal is at Vesey St. (south of Chambers), take the ferry there to Port Imperial/Weehawken. Ferry only runs AM from 6am to 9am and PM from 3:30pm to 8pm, trip takes 15 minutes. Airtrain/subway is $7.25 and ferry is $12. OR take Airtrain to Jamaica Station and take E subway to 34th St./Penn Station. From there take PATH train to Exchange Pl. and local transportation to Weehawken. PATH fare is $1.75.
JFK to Queens
Im going to JFK next week and i want to know how is the cheapest/fastest way to go from JFK to Queens (Astoria BLVD and 31 street) Hope someone help me.
Take Airtrain from terminal
Take Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, take E subway to Jackson Hgts/Roosevelt Ave. and transfer to the Manhattan-bound #7 subway. At Queensboro Plaza transfer to the Astoria-bound N subway and get off at Astoria Blvd. Total cost of Airtrain/subway is $7.25. Taxi is faster but will cost about $40.
Question
I'm traveling from JFK to Manhatten.
I plan to take the airtrain to jamaica station and then the E line subway to downtown. I know that the air train is $5, and needs to be paid with a single use metrocard. I also heard that the metrocard has free transfers. Will that single card work for the airtrain and subway too?
