- Ken BergerOctober 14, 2015Great hack: if you need to get to terminal 8 or 7 and are coming off the Jamaica airtrain, get off at terminal 1 and take the other train backwards. Saves at least 10 mins.
- Dennis BJuly 9, 2016Remember, the AirTrain has two branches. Make sure to get on the appropriate train to either Jamaica or Howard Beach. If you mess up, transfer to the correct train at Federal Circle Station.
- Harumi UAugust 20, 2014Only $5 to Jamaica or Howard Beach and another $2.5 to go anywhere in the city where a subway takes you. Cheapest and often the quickest way to get around
- Jim PenfoldApril 18, 2019$5 from Howard Beach and Jamaica Stations; free all other stations. For a fairly new system is down for repairs far too often. Also doesn't like to run in snow or heavy rain.
- Lori FrenchFriesFebruary 7, 2011One train goes between terminals, one goes to the A Train Subway in Howard Beach, and the other goes to the E Train Subway in Jamaica. Lost? Ask a red coat person for help. ;)
- @cfnobleNovember 7, 2011Make sure you're on the right train! If you're headed to A subway = Howard Beach. If going to LIRR or E subway = Jamaica.
- Natasha GreeneNovember 28, 2011Take the AirTran to the subway if you can! It's $5! Instead of taking a $50 cab ride to the city!
- Taj W.April 23, 2012Pay attention to the automated announcer on the train, because the airport staff are not interested in giving too many directions.
- Chad EschingerNovember 8, 2015Plan on 30 minutes at least from terminal 8 to Howard Beach. While an improvement over the buses, the train has slowed considerably with age
