LIR just a bit quicker

Yep just a bit more expensive

About half the time (20 vs 45 mins), and definitely more comfy, but also about $7 each rather than the $2.25 each for the subway (or if you're getting the weekly unlimited pass, subway ride is effectively free). Air Train is already $5 each to get to Jamaica or Howard Beach.

Cab is about $55 I think. Could be a better option for some people, especially those with mobility issues or lots of heavy bags.

Let's not forget the NY tip, at least 10%
I guess if this is the first visit I would go for a taxi, is the taxi still a flat fare
 

Wouldn't touch a cab from JFK to times sq myself. So easy on the train and cost peanuts compared.

Definitely don't take a 'cab' from one of the fellas in departures either, shitehawks
 
never a dull moment in NYC you have try to have a bad time there

just walking anywhere is a show,

Check out the MoMA (Museum of modern art) and Soho for awesome art galleries.

go to Coney Island in Brooklyn ride the Cyclone rollercoaster.

there is literally a million things to do, but wandering in the NYC is just as fun itself.

Well. That's that, all done. I now have a new love in my life alongside my family, Everton, Led Zeppelin and Orlando. I have had an amazing time. Greatest city I've ever visited and probably the greatest city I will ever visit. Just at JFK and these holiday blues are hurting already.

Yeah, we had a quick watch of it last night. It was peaceful, well organised and well policed. we saw it on 5th Avenue and they were diverted up 55th (I think) just before they arrived at Trump Tower.

Is right mate. I usually swerve best ever on stuff that's subjective but I don't reckon there's another city as good as New York in the world. Made up you had a great time.
