Hi,
Please can you advise if there are any companies that offer airside assistance from international flights, example, meet the passenger from the flight, help thru immigration and boarder control and collect luggage and out of the airport?
Many thanks
hi can anyone please help, How do I go from East Rutherford to JFK airport by public transport?
Take the NJ Transit bus to Port Authority. Then the subway to JFK.
Subway - Port Authority: the A and the E will take you to Queens from where you can take the Airtrain to the right terminal.
So A to FarRockway (don't take the one to Laeffert's Blvd) and then the airtrain
Or
E to Jamaica, Queens and Airtrain to JFK.
The whole trip might take you a little under 2 hrs.

I want to get from Jfk to the Strand Hotel 33 West 37 Street. NYC. I have no idea what to expect when I get there! What is the most cost effective and simplest way of getting there? Thanks for any help.
I will be coming into JFK tomorrow morning and I would like to know how do I get to our hotel, The Moderne, which is located at 243 W 55th st?? The nearest subway station is 55th St-7th Av Station-N/Q/R/W trains...but how do I get there??? Thanks!!
is there an address for the long term parking lot?
also, is the long term parking lot self park or valet?
Try Lefferts Blvd at intersection of Pan Am Way if you want ot put it in GPS. LT is self-park only.
My son will be arriving at 4:30pm from overseas at JFK. He has reserved seating on the AMTRAK to Providence at 8PM. How much will a taxi cost from JFK to Penn station and is that the fastest way to get to Penn station??
With tip and toll, a taxi will cost about $60. At that hour, the taxi ride could easily take more than one hour. If I were not carrying a lot of luggage, I would opt for the AirTrain to Jamaica Station ($5.00), and then the Long Island Rail Road from Jamaica to Penn Station ($6.25 on weekdays; $3.75 on weekends if one selects the "City Ticket" option on the LIRR ticket-vending machine). Total travel time should be 50-60 minutes.
What are alternative ways to get between JFK and EWR conveniently and inexpensively ?
Olympic Airporter offers hourly scheduled service between the two airports. The trip takes about 90 minutes, and costs $30 per person. (There might be an extra charge if you have a lot of luggage.) Details can be found at:
http://olympic-limo.com/schedule-airport%20transfer-ewr%20jfk.html
1)State Shuttle has service between airports for around $35. Inquire at Ground Transportation for schedule.
2)By train: take AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Jamaica Station ($5), transfer to LIRR to Penn Station ($8.75/$6.25 off peak), transfer to NJ Transit train to EWR rail station ($12.50 includes EWR AirTrain fare), transfer to EWR AirTrain to terminals.
remark for 1. - Most of the Ground Transportation counters have been transformed into Welcome Centers at JFK.
With the pending construction at JFK are the driving directions/signs cleary label for passanger drop off at terminal 3.
Do Delta flights to MBJ depart from terminal 3
Dear Sirs, I'll land at JFK-Terminal 1 next Saturday and have to reach the Hotel in East Broadway.
It will by my first time in N.Y. so any advice on how to get from JFK to East Broadway will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Take AirTrain on track 1 to Howard Beach Station, transfer to the inbound A subway to Jay St/Borough Hall, transfer to the inbound F subway to East Broadway.
New York, West Side of 9th Ave between 31st St and 33rd St MEGA BUS station how to get there from jfk????
walking or train
AirTrain to Jamaica Station; then, either Manhattan-bound "E" subway or Long Island Rail Road to Penn Station. (The LIRR will be faster; the subway will be cheaper.) Exit Penn Station (or the subway) on the 8th Avenue side, and walk west one block -- on either 31st or 33rd Street -- to 9th Avenue. If you're hungry and arrive in Manhattan before 9:00 PM, you can get an excellent slice of pizza at Pizza Suprema, on 8th Avenue between 30th and 31st streets.
What is the cheapest way (via public transit) from JFK to ALOFT Hotel in Brooklyn (216 Duffield St.- what station does one get off on ?) I was thinking of getting to the JFK subway station via parking shuttle to the long term parking lot then hopping onto the the subway system. Is there a better way ?? Thanks
Take AirTrain on track 1 from terminal to Howard Beach Station ($5), transfer to the A subway ($2.25) to Hoyt-Schermerhorn, exit to Hoyt St. and walk north on Hoyt to Fulton Mall, turn right one block and then left to Duffield St.
Should I stop by immigration office when I will leave US for departure recorded?
I will arrive in NYC at JFK airport on July 2 and i would like to know how can i do to to go at 891 Amsterdam Av at West 103rd. What kind of public transport (bus, subway...)cheapest can i get? How much 1 will pay for each one? This address is far from JFK?Thanck you very much.
Cheapest is by AirTrain ($5) to subway ($2.25): take AirTrain from terminal to Jamaica Station, transfer to inbound E subway to 50th St, transfer to the uptown C subway one stop to 59th St, transfer to the uptown #1 subway to 103rd St, walk one block east from station at 103rd/Broadway to Amsterdam Ave.
This is bad advice for two reasons: 1. There is no transfer available from the downtown side at 50th Street/8th Avenue Station to the uptown side. 2. Even if there were, it would still be easier to transfer from the E to an uptown D train at 7th Avenue Station, and take the D to Columbus Circle for the #1.
And taking the AirTrain to the subway is NOT the cheapest way. Taking the Q10 bus to the subway from Terminal 4 is cheaper -- but it will take longer.
If going by AirTrain, I would take the AirTrain to Howard Beach station, and then take the A train all the way to Columbus Circle, and make just one transfer there to the uptown #1 train. The cheaper alternative is to take the Q10 or Q10 Limited bus from JFK Terminal 4 to the A train terminal at Liberty Avenue and Lefferts Boulevard, and then ride the A train from there to Columbus Circle, where the transfer to the uptown #1 train can be made.
hihi jb i will be arriving jfk 6am what time the bus leaves jfk to 42street port Atouratie and what time the 107 leaves for newark nj
I plan to drive into JFK (from Nebraska) to pick up a family flying in on Aeroflot (term 1). Will they be at term 1, or do they have to clear customs at term 4? Is it possible to wait in the cell phone parking are for them to call me, then pick them up curbside at whatever terminal? Are the driving directions given on this site the best for coming in on I-80?
Thanks,
Redtop
Take either Megabus or Boltbus, they both depart near Penn Station. You can also take Amtrak train from Penn Station to Boston but will cost you much more than the bus.

Hi JFK airport team, I NEED HELP I will arrive into JFK on may 23 at 03.35PM terminal 8, is it a direct bus from JFK to Boston? is it sure that Megabus &Boltbus to Boston I need to take from Penn Station or is some another stations? And from terminal 8 wich Airport bus I need to take to get there ,how long will take? It is the fastest way (except taxi)?
Thank you in advance
No bus from JFK to Boston that I know of.
Take either Megabus or Boltbus, they both depart near Penn Station.
You will be better off taking the JFK Airtrain to Howard Beach Station ($5), then take the A train (blue circle sign/northbound) to Penn Station/34 St.($2.25)
It should take you about 70 to 90 minutes, cheaper and much better than being stuck in traffic.
You can also take Amtrak from Penn Station to Boston but will cost you much more.
Hope it helps. :P
I arrive at JFK at 4:00 on Monday and need to get from JFK to Chesea District (10th Ave near 21st)
