we are on the same flight...i hope taht we will be able to leave before storms really hits...

hey, i am a student coming over to New York for a few weeks and i am on a budget so trying to waste too much money on taxis and such like. is there any public transport that takes for New york John F Kennedy airport to Manhattan or around Loews Regency Hotel? thanks so much for any help, Danni.

Take the Air Train (sings everywhere in the airport) direction Jamaica Station. At Jamaica Station take the elevators to get downstairs to the Subway station. Once there take the "E" subway direction Manhattan/ World Trade Center. Ask at the subway booth where you should get off or transfer subways. You buy the ticket for the Air Train once you GET OFF the train at the Jamaica station. Price Air Train: $7. You can buy at the same time the subway ticket $2.25 per ride. Good luck!

Take the quick and easy AirTrain. Begin by walking

Go to JFK Terminal 5-6 Station (takes about 7 mins)

Light rail- AirTrain - Jamaica Station - JFK Airport - Direction: Jamaica
Service runs every 10 mins

Leave from JFK Terminal 5-6 Station

Arrive at Jamaica Station - Sutphin Boulevard

Subway - E - Direction: World Trade Center Station
18 mins to make transfer
Service run by NYC Transit

Leave from Sutphin Blvd - Archer Ave Station

Arrive at Queens Plaza Station

Subway - R - Direction: 95th St - Bay Ridge Station
1 min to make transfer

Leave from Queens Plaza Station

Arrive at Lexington Ave - 59th St Station

Walk

Go to 540 Park Avenue (takes about 3 mins)

Take the SkyTrain to the subway station, then take a train into Manhattan. It'll take longer, but it'll cost hardly anything!

Hi,
My aunt is an old,handicapped lady, using a walker to move around.
She's coming on a flight from Florida and needs help in moving the luggage, pass customs and get to the flight in another terminal.
What service exists in JFK for people like her?

Whenever I travel with my Mom who is 89 years old and walks slowly with a cane, I tell the stewardess when I get on the plane that I will need a wheelchair when we arrive at the designated airport. They have a person waiting that will push her in the wheelchair to where ever we need to go. You just tip the person pushing the chair. The same goes for when you arrive at the airport there are wheelchairs and people that will push them in the main terminal where you check in. They will take you through security and to your gate.

You need to make the wheelchair accomidations ahead of time. If you call your airline you can let them know ahead of time that you need wheelchair assistance. When you arrive at the airport make sure you check in and verify that you have wheelchair assistance booked for your entire trip. You can ask the flight attendants to make sure it is on the paperwork for your arrival city. But please, coming from a flight attendant, do not just assume that by asking us that it will be taken care of for your whole trip. It really needs to be added on, BEFORE you fly, to your reservation.

Can someone please help. I want to get to the Hilton Garden Inn 63 West 35th Street from JFK airport. How do I do this? Can I get a an Air train and subway. What am I looking for and How do I get there.

Cheers

Get the Air Train to Jamaica station and from there the "E" line subway Manhattan direction. Get off at 34th Street/ Penn Station.

go to hopstop and get directions. you need to know the bourough your hotel is in but that website will give you very clear directions on how to get to your destination from the airport. Good luck!

You can get to your hotel via airtrain and subway--you'll get off the subway at 32nd st. and walk a quick couple of blocks. A great tool is www.hopstop.com, will show you exactly what to do/what trains to take.

You might also want to consider a Super Shuttle van. It's about $15 one way, it's door-to-door, and if you're lugging any luggage, it's much easier. (If the subways are crowded, it will be hard for you to shove your luggage on--subways are not equipped to handle luggage.)

Cheers and enjoy!

I did this last weekend - really easy.

Take the air train that goes to Federal Circle station (the one I took was described as a "Howard Beach" train) At Federal Circle go down stairs and out the doors. Turn right and follow walkway under tent/awning to where the Hotel Shuttle buses pick up. The Sheraton bus also goes to Hilton Garden (check with driver to be sure) as the hotels are next door to each other.

I have been doing this for several weeks..very easy: Take the JFK Airtrain to Jamaica Station (the station after Federal Circle). Airtrain $5 charge. After going thru the exit go straight to the Long Island Railway door (LIRR) and there is a monitor in front of you. Find next train to Penn Station (every 10 min or so) - it will probably leave from Track 2. $5.75 off peak (4pm till about 8pm) or $8 peak - buy ticket from the machine or pay more on the train. Go all the way to Penn Station. Find the 34th Street/7th Ave exit and go up the escalator and turn right - you will be heading east on 34th...walk 1 long block to Broadway then turn left and go 1 block to 35th. Turn right and you will see your hotel.

is this possible to get from JFK airport terminal 8 to the Park Avenue, Manhattan at Satuday afternoon by using common transport?
