I landed for the first and hopefully the last time at JFK last week. Truthfully I expected more. I couldn't believe the shape the woman's rest room was in...it was truly shameful. So dirty, toilet paper all over the floor, toilets wet with urine and water and two of them not flushed. All I kept thinking was imagine what someone in our country for the first time must be thinking?

Hi,
I have a flight on a Saturday morning leaving from JFK airport at 8AM.
I'm trying to find ways to get from Brooklyn to JFK, can anyone tell me the best way to do this using public transportation?
and how much time before the departure hr should I arrive?

Take the A train to Howard Beach and then the Air Train to your terminal or LIRR from Flatbush Ave. to Jamaica and the Air Train from Jamaica to your terminal. Two hours before departure is the "standard" but you can sometimes breeze through check-in and security in just a few minutes.

The best way is to get a car. if you cant, take a rockaway park or far rockaway bound A train to the station for the Air tran. I believe its howard beach station.
Subway fare will cost 2 dollars and the air tran will cost 5 dollars.

This has to be the worst airport website i have ever been on. Why on earth is the home page full of comments? not information about the airport.... yanks

I completely agree. It's so bad that I wondered if it is a phony site (maybe it is?). This is at a kindergarden-level in web design and content.

Hi,

We are comming to JFK this Saturday and need to know what to do about hiring a car seat for our 2 year old son. Our 6 year old can use the booster seat we will bring with, but the 2 year olds car seat at home is much too heavy to lug about, and getting on the train with all the luggage is just not a good idea.

Please could you suggest what options are available to me at the airport ?

Thanks in advance
