    They're on the right track. (giggle)…read more So glad they offer this service. Super easy to get to other terminals, car rentals, or hotel shuttles. And, if you are trying to get to the city, the Air Train is more reliable, faster, and predictable than taxis and rideshare at a fraction of the cost (and sometime more spacious or comfortable). Plus, it's luggage friendly and accessible. And they don't need to know your name. If you're confused, you need to take the smooth, magnetic Air Train to exit the airport to either Howard Beach to catch the A train or to Jamaica for the E, J, or Z train (or the Long Island Rail Road direct to Grand Central or Penn Station for $5.25-$7.25). To get directions in reverse back to the airport, just hold this review up to a mirror. Ideally, it would be great to have a direct link from airport to city, like Chicago, Atlanta, DC, San Francisco, Cleveland, Salt Lake City, St. Louis, and Minneapolis and Portland (and Seattle if you walk 1000 feet), but I still appreciate the "two-seat" system because the signage is super easy. You can jump off your plane and follow the yellow signs straight to the air train, pay at the turnstile, and be on a train within 15 minutes anytime of the day. As of June 2026, it's $8.75 for the Air Train, and $3 for the subway. Pro Tip: If you are heading to Terminal 8 from the city, get off the train at Terminal 1, walk across the platform, and catch the clockwise "All Terminals" to catch it in 1 (not 5) stops.

    When I travel by myself and have a small suitcase or bag I refuse to pay a king's ransom for a trip…read moreback home to Manhattan from JFK. For $8.50 this a terrific alternative, plus the $3 cost of a subway ride, over a cab or Uber charging a ridiculous amount. Good signage and easy directions, along with screens showing the train schedule which runs 8-10 minutes or so. Staff is here to assist with any problems or questions. Pay by credit card, OMNY, or mobile app. Easy peasy. Also, it's free travel from terminal to terminal in case you have time to kill and want to use one of the lounges in a different one than which you're flying out of.

I'm not too knowledgeable on this system but I tapped my credit or debit card and paid the fare, a transfer is added on for a one way continuous ride. I think you can pay with your phone as well. Back in the days, in my youth, I could travel underground blindfolded nowadays , assistance with navigating is needed. Heck do you know how long I've been above ground or driving. Try 1993 when I moved out of NYC. When I came back a decade later I was driving. So I looked around and saw a whole heap of stairs and an escalater coming up. "Say my man, is there an elevator." I had to use my street vernacular, I still got it! He directed me across the street. I'm now in the train station , I confidently hopped on the first escalator, I went down to the wrong level and had to come back up to the second level. Of course asking for assistance. Okay, we're on the train and the train has left the station, NEXT! Bryant Park, my stop. Inspire more,Yelp more!

Kennedy International Airport, but the commute connected me to downtown Manhattan itself which was a relief and money saver from catching a Lyft. If you are looking for an easy way to get around New York, it is a convenient subway station with several stops in between. Located in Jamaica, Queens New York, it was Google Maps that guided me from MTA Jamaica Center - Parsons/ Archer Subway on my transit to Manhattan. And later transit from Manhattan where I was able to connect to AirTrain JFK, and John F. Kennedy International Airport. My pleasant experiences with MTA Jamaica Center - Parsons/ Archer Subway Station plays a key part in my anticipation to return to New York now that I have an idea how to navigate. ~Have courage.
