Forget taxi, Sicklerville is
Forget taxi, Sicklerville is in southern NJ, southeast of Philly so taxi would be hundreds of $$. Take Amtrak train from Penn Station Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica station, transfer to E subway or LIRR to Penn Station) to Philadelphia and local transportation from there to Sicklerville.

Q
I want to ask, how much will cost me taxi from JFK to Sea Isle City
JFK to LA GUARDIA
Hi,
I will be landing at JFK at 2 pm and my connecting flight is from LA GUARDIA at 6:30 pm.
I have two Qs:
(1) Is the time sufficient to travel between the 2 air ports; I mean I have just 4.5 hours to come out of JFK and then reaching LA GUARDIA and then boarding the flight there at 6:30pm. So are 4.5 hours sufficient for the whole transition?
(2) What is the cheapest way to travel from JFK to LA GUARDIA after taking the 4.5 hours time span into consideration? Means I will have just few hours [probably 2-2.5 hours] for transiting between the 2 airports, so what is the cheapest way of doing that?
Thanks.

query
I am arriving on 31st may at jfk nairport at 6am by AI-101. I need a taxi for two to philadelphia at 9am.Are taxis available and how much would be the cost.
Local NYC taxis will
Local NYC taxis will probably not take you to Philadelphia and it would be very expensive. The best would be Megabus (stop is at 31st St.) or Amtrak train both from Penn Station. You can get to Penn Station by taking the NYAS bus from your terminal or Airtrain to Jamaica Station, transfer to LIRR or E subway to Penn Station. Amtrak has frequent departures to DC which stops in Philly. You can also check at the Ground Transportation counter when you arrive for possible shuttle service.
hi
hi how much would it cost from JFK to Best Western Riverview Inn & Suites Rahway, NJ, US
Hello. I´ll be arriving at
Hello. I´ll be arriving at with LAN at JFK T4 on May 31st at 8:35am. I have a connecting flight from T7 about 12 hours later. Do I have enough time to go sightseeing or shopping in Manhattan? How much is a taxi ride to Manhattan from JFK and how long does it take to get there? Or will I be better off waiting at the airport while waiting for my connection?
You will be tight for time
You will be tight for time but can certainly get to Manhattan and back. The quickest way is to take the Air Train from terminal 4 to Jamica station and then connect to the E subway line from which you can exit in midtown Manhattan. Buy a metro card which is good for both and you can do the whole round trip for around $15 US. Total time about 75 mins one way which is faster and more reliable than a cab. Make sure that you have enough time to reclear security which can take up to one hour during peak times. Suggest that you arrive at JFK 2 hours before your outbound flight.
Best way for transport
Hello,
I'm arriving on JFK on 7th June around 14:30 pm with 3 adults. We stay at West 57th Street New York City. Can anyone advise which transportation is available.
I'm thinking of a shuttlebus or a taxi, but don't know which one is most advisable and for which costs.
Can anyone advise.
Thx
Lost Stroller
Hello,
I flew into JFK last Friday 5/21/10 and took a taxi from the airport out to Levittown, Long Island. The driver was very nice but when we were packing the taxi we realized that my 2 year old son's stroller would not fit in the back so the driver told us we could leave it up front in the passenger seat. To make a long story short, he left with the stroller (purely accidental). I didnt realize it was missing until tonight (2 days later). Any advice on the steps I can take or a number to call to retrieve it? I dont have the taxi number or the drivers madallion number. Please help.
