Transfers between terminals?
Can a NY local please confirm if 1 of the trains on the Airtrain network at JFK goes in the opposite direction to the other? Need to transfer from Terminal 4 to Terminal 3 and don't want to go the whole way round if I can help it? Many thanks!
That is exactly what happens
That is exactly what happens at the following stops-T1,T2/T3,T4,T5/T6,T7 and T8 - the trains on track 1 are moving in opposite direction to the trains on track 2.
For you to get from T4 to T3, you have to take the train on track 2 ONLY.
