I need to go from JFK to
I need to go from JFK to Greenpoint Avenue, Brooklyn. Thanks
One end of Greenpoint Avenue
One end of Greenpoint Avenue is served by the Greenpoint Avenue station on the "G" line; the other end is served by the 46th Street station on the #7 line. On weekdays, the B24 bus runs along Greenpoint Avenue, connecting one end to the other.
From JFK, take the AirTrain to Jamaica, and then take a Manhattan-bound "E" train to Roosevelt Avenue/Jackson Heights station for the transfer to the #7; or take the "E" to Court Square/23rd Street station for the transfer to the "G". If you use a Metrocard to enter the subway at Jamaica, you will automatically get a free transfer to the B24 bus, if needed.
Is it possible to meet my
Is it possible to meet my friend who is arriving at at terminal 4 JFK?. I was hoping to get off the airtrain and wait for her at the T4 station
Yes, it's possible, but you
Yes, it's possible, but you would probably be more comfortable waiting inside the terminal itself. Perhaps you could agree to meet at the Travelers Aid desk -- or some other landmark -- inside Terminal 4.
I want to go from JFK to W
I want to go from JFK to W 63rd St/Brodway near Columbus Circle. What connection is the best and how long will it take me to get there?
The easiest way is to take
The easiest way is to take the AirTrain to Howard Beach, and then board a Manhattan-bound "A" subway to Columbus Circle station.
The alternative -- which will probably be a few minutes faster but will involve an additional transfer -- is to take the AirTrain to Jamaica, and then board a Manhattan-bound "E" subway. At Seventh Avenue/53rd Street station, transfer from the "E" to an uptown "B" or "D" subway (on the lower level of the station) for the one-stop ride to Columbus Circle.
AirTrain and "A" subway should take a little over one hour; AirTrain and "E" subway, with a transfer to the "B" or "D" at Seventh Avenue station, should take just under an hour.

I need to get from terminal
I need to get from terminal 3 to Lefferts Blvd on Liberty ave. I assume the route would be - Airtrain to Howard beach - A train up to Rockaway blvd, then change to Lefferts blvd branch. Is this correct?
Taking the Q10 (or Q10
Taking the Q10 (or Q10 Limited) bus from Terminal 4 -- as suggested by B2G -- will not only be cheaper than the AirTrain/subway combination, but it will almost certainly be faster. From Terminal 4 to Lefferts and Liberty, the trip time is about 25 minutes, and the buses run frequently. You can get from Terminal 3 to Terminal 4 for free by riding a Jamaica- or Howard Beach-bound AirTrain one stop. (There is no charge for AirTrain travel wholly within the airport.)
Yes by AirTrain/subway
Yes by AirTrain/subway ($7.25)or you can take the Q10 bus from T4 to Lefferts Blvd for $2.25.

Take AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to LIRR or E subway to Penn Station. AirTrain fare is $5, LIRR fare is $6.75/$8.25 but faster than subway which costs $2.25.
