New
York Airport – JFK Airport provides
top-notch service to 100 airlines and 35,000,000 people
annually. It is a great airport where travellers are
treated well in state of the art surroundings. You
can be assured the airport has everything you need
to have a safe and enjoyable trip.
LaGuardia Airport is located 8 miles
from Manhattan and the Newark Airport is approximately
12 miles from midtown Manhattan. Both of these airports
offer a large selection of flights and are just as
busy as JFK airport. So many people from all over
the world travel through theses airports to visit
this most affluent city.
Getting
back and forth to the airport is never a problem on
the subway or you can take a shuttle from your hotel.
Most of the hotels in the area offer a shuttle service
to and from the airport. One advice, driving through
traffic in New York City is always
a wait. Be sure you leave yourself ample driving time
and then some and then some more so you can get to
the airport in time for your flight. Just a little
word of caution-traffic can be a nightmare. But, what’s
that when you have everything you ever wanted in a
city right outside your door?
The shuttle service to and from JFK Airport
takes over 90 minutes but will often bring you right
to your hotel, especially if it is in downtown or
midtown. Cabs from the airports are plentiful and
operate a set fare but on the way back to the airport
you’ll have to cut your own deal.
The new AirTrain from JFK Airport
has entered service and will bring you to an A line
station (Howard Beach) or to Sutphin Boulevard subway
station ( E, J and Z subway lines). The AirTrain also
serves LIRR’s Jamaica Station.
Arriving in JFK Airport you need
a $5 ticket to link to the subway and then you need
a subway ticket $2 to take you into central New York.
On the way to JFK, some airlines will check you in
and take your luggage at Jamaica Station before you
get on the AirTrain.
