Are You Looking for A Cheap Trip?
From JFK to Manhattan
JFK is one of biggest International Airport in the world. It is located in New York which is
one of famous city in the world. You want to see the New York? You must go to Manhattan.
Here I will explain the cheapest way to get to Manhattan from JFK.
We have many ways to travel from JFK to Manhattan. For example, Limousine, Yellow cab,
Limousine
bus, Airtrain + subway. Limousine will cost you $60 - $100. Yellow Cab
has flat rate $52+toll+tax+tip. Limousine bus cost $15. I will tell
you cheapest way with $2.75 if you don't care how much time you spend and enjoy the way to go.
First of all, we need METRO CARD before hand since no bending machine is available in JFK.
New
York Subway&bus is available with 1 flat rate with $2.75(April
2015) no matter how far you go.One time transit is ok from the bus to
the subway, the subway to the bus, and the bus to the bus,
if you have a metro card. We
can pay the fare with coins and in the bus and get transfer card but
the transfer card is only for the another bus which goes different
directions and it doesn't work for the subway. So, for this trip from
JFK to Manhattan you need a metro card since you will transfer from
the bus to the subway.
You need to go to Terminal 5 with the airtrain. In JFK moving around in-between terminal is free.
We need to pay only you exit from airtrain station at Jamaica or Howard Beach. So, this ride is free.
And then, walk toward terminal 5. After you see the road for cars under the bridge aisle, you will find
3 elevator on your left. Take one of them to the ground level, walk to right, you will find bus stops
for Q10, B15, Q3. All 3 buses will take you to different subway station but I will talk about only
Q10 and B15 since Q3 will take you to the station only local subway stops.
With Q10 bus, you can go to Lefferts Blvd station for A train or Kew Garden station for E&F train.
E
train will take you to the Lexington Av/53 St. station in Midtown,
Manhattan. It is the first station in Manhattan with E train. You can go
further with E train where you wish to go.
It will go through 5A/53rd St, 7Av, 50St, 42nd St/Port Authority Bus Terminal, 34 St/Penn Station,
23rd St, 14St, W4 St/Wash Sq, Canal St, Chambers St, Fulton St, and then go to Brooklyn.
F
train will take you to the Lexington Av/63rd station in uptown
Manhattan. Again, it is the first station in Manhattan with F train and
you can go further. It will go through 57 St(on 6 Av),47-50 St
(on
6 Av), 42 St(on 6 Av), 34 St(on 6 Av), 23 St(on 6 Av), 14 St(on 6 Av),
W4 Wash Sq, B'way-Lafayette St, 2 Av, Delancey St, East Broadway, and
then go to Brooklyn.
With B15 bus, you can go to New Lots Av station for 3(Red) train. 3 train will take you to the
Wall St station in downtown Manhattan. Again this is the first station in Manhattan with 3 train.
You can go further where you wish to go. It will go through Fulton St, Park Place, Chambers St, 14st,
34 St, Times Sq-42 St, 59 St/Columbus Circle, 72 St(B'way),96 St,and then go to Bronx.
