When I had an office in NYC, this station was my starting point for the commute to the NY City because they had the most options available for trains heading to Peen Station.

Had a quick stop in Hicksville on my way to Plainview. This is actually my first time visiting this…read morestation. Here's some facts: 'Hicksville is a commuter rail station on the Main Line and Port Jefferson Branch of the Long Island Rail Road, located in Hicksville, New York. It is the busiest station east of Jamaica, Penn Station, and Grand Central Madison by combined weekday/weekend ridership. ' My commute from Atlantic Terminal to Jamaica to connect to Ronkonkoma line was seamless. The ride took @15 minutes to get to Hicksville. When I arrived, there are eight buses to connect to other parts of Nassau County, which is extremely useful. The taxi stand looked deserted thus unsure if it is viable. I walked across the road to a nearby Dunkin Donuts to order an Uber to get to my destination. The train station was clean and there's of course an information booth to assist with connections. There are restaurants and stores around ten minutes away via bus or Uber. Commuting home there was a bit of delay heading to Penn Station; it was a Friday late afternoon. Thus, expect a crowded train during the summer with beachgoers, events happening at Madison Square Garden {,Penn Station stop) travelers making Jamaica connections to JFK airport.

I use this station quite often and it's very convenient…read more There's an indoor waiting area on street level, where there's a manned ticket booth as well as ticket machines. You should definitely get your ticket before you board your train. They also have restrooms here but they are closed off hours. There also a small convenience store here as well. Drinks, newspapers, smokes, lotto etc There's an escalator that takes you up to the train platforms. There's also elevators as well. Getting down is stairs and elevators only. They also have indoor waiting areas(heated in the winter) on the train platform as well. These are only open during "regular" hours though. There's plenty of parking here and a Dunkin Donuts as well.

I called from my NJ cell number (I am responsible for my aunt) and the dispatcher answered, yelling ARRR, ARRR, like a pirate, as I tried to interrupt. I hung up and called back, because I get it. He probably thought I was a spam or robo call, but they don't call back. Same thing, yelling, pirate stuff, and I did say hello, I'm calling for a taxi, this isn't a scam call, I need a cab for my 96 year old aunt. He tells me still in pirate voice she has to call for herself on her own cell phone. SHE'S 96. SHE DOESN'T HAVE ONE. I finally gave up but he was so loud and just awful I hope no one ever calls with a non LI number, because that's the horrible treatment you'll get. Incidentally, Woodbury Taxi? Owned by same folks, because pirate jerk answered there too. Glad it was a nice day so my aunt was at least waiting in good weather.

They never showed up. When I called to check (with only 15 minutes before my appointment), the dispatcher claimed the driver had arrived, honked multiple times, and called me. None of that happened--I was downstairs the entire time and have no missed calls or messages. There was no apology, just indifference. I ended up having to scramble for another ride. I won't be using this service again. At similar prices, I'd recommend using Uber or Lyft, which at least show up and provide tracking.

His explanation didn't make sense if you use flight tracker any changes in arrival time will be recorded. We had checked baggage so with the delay in getting the bags he was still 30 minnute late. If we had carryon bags he would've been 55 min late. We found out the actual reason for his lateness was picking up another fare going to JFK.

You get what you pay for. STAY AWAY…read more Two of the worst driver experiences ever. For the trip to the airport, Lawrence E. showed up early and was rushing us the whole time. When we got to the car, instead of saying hi or being professional, he rudely told us we were making him late because he had to go to Smithtown after us. Then, he drove us to the WRONG AIRPORT. For the trip back, I got a text from Damian Smith when we landed, telling us he was running late. I appreciated the heads-up. He said it would be about 35 minutes, which would have been only a short wait for us after getting our bags, but it ended up being over an hour and 40 minutes. We kept checking in with phone calls and texts and he always said he was very close and would be there soon. At one point he said he had stopped to get gas. Then he said he was very close and that we should come outside. So we waited another ten minutes in the cold with our newborn baby after a 2 hour flight and he still wasn't there. I called him and demanded to know where he was, explaining that my newborn was cold and hungry and he hung up on me. Not knowing what else to do, I called the company to complain and cancel the ride. Just as he was pulling up, the company hung up on me. Damian now wants to talk to me "man to man". He said the safety of his passengers is his number one priority and that he had to get his wheel fixed, as if I should have both known that was what was really going on, and that I should have been grateful that was the reason he was late, instead of doing the right thing and letting us and the company know so other arrangements could be made. He denied hanging up on me. And felt he had to explain that he was in the right because the wheel needed to be fixed. He also told us he had to drive to Canada the next day. When he got us home, he said "See? You're home safe." As if he was a hero. Worst experience ever.

I would beware of this service, everyone. I scheduled a ride to the airport and when I realized…read morethat I had given them the wrong number for me (since I'd just switched SIM cards) I called just to let them know, and someone really - out of sorts answered the phone. Like they were trying to be funny or something, but it was just violently loud and obnoxious and scary. Why would I be alone in a car with someone for over an hour if they were associated with a manager that unstable? Why would someone at dispatch answer the phone by screaming loudly in someone's ear? I was so surprised that I instantly hung up without so much as uttering, "wtf....?" Scary. Going to schedule an Uber and a Lyft and hope for the best even though it's a 3 am pickup.
