  • Heading to New York City and nervous about getting from JFK Airport to Midtown Manhattan on public transit?
    As an ex-New Yorker, I've taken NYC public transit a ton, meaning I'm a bit of an expert.
    Come with me as I land at JFK, make my way through baggage claim to the Airtrain, buy a metro ticket, and finally head into the subway to hop a train to my hotel in Times Square.
    For written instructions to use during your journey, head to my article outlining everything you need to know to get from JFK into Manhattan!

    Do i have to pay for each companion that is traveling with me in the airtrain? Or can i just pay the 8.75$ for two people

    • @allytravels

      Yes, everyone needs to pay to ride the train.

    Is the AirTrain free? It is from Newark APO to the NJ Transit stop. Thanks!

      This video is for JFK to Manhattan. That AirTrain is $8.25 on top of your subway or railroad fare - at Newark Airport you just have to hop on NJ Transit it’s about $16 a person I think

    If traveling with around a 20kg luggage, and hand luggage, is a taxi the best option for me

      If it were me traveling with that much, I’d say it’s worth it, especially if it’s after a long-haul flight. If it’s after a short flight, or I’m on a budget then I’d prob take public transit (just make sure to use the elevators to avoid having to carry your bags up and down the steps)

    Take an E subway may be a suitable ride during daytime. Typically you don't want to take the subway at 2 am due to weird people around. A subway ride I don't think proper when the cars are packed. A LIRR ride is better service; no strange people, an overhead rack for your luggage is always there.

      @@allytravels I have seen too many people taking subway with luggage that they have to have the luggage going over the turnstiles while they can just first slide the luggage under the bar before swiping the Metrocard for yourself 🤔

      E train goes to forest hills and kew gardens, which are some of the richest neighborhoods in New York.
      Of course, if you have lots of luggage that is a different story.

    Worst connection from international airport to the city. Only taxi can help. But it's expensive

    • @allytravels
      @allytravels  8 місяців тому

      Sounds like you had a bad experience. It’s def not the easiest, but it’s way more affordable than a cab, and compared to other places I’ve traveled, it’s not the worst 🤷‍♀️
