No matter how cheap it may be, or convenient, the fact that NYC has no direct rail from JFK or LGA to Manhattan is shameful at best. When compared to other world cities, there is zero excuse for the MTA to not have built it already.

@EMSpdx 8 месяцев назад

LOL! Venice does not have this, neither does Paris ( it's a similar system to NYC) Nor London, nor Lagos.

@1879heikkisorsa 8 месяцев назад

@@EMSpdx What are you talking about? Paris has multiple train stations, one even has a EuroStart connection that could bring you directly to London or obviously city center. I wouldn't call Venice a world city and its airport is fairly small (do you seriously compare NYC with Venice?!). And for London: Again, they have multiple options, especially for Heathrow. So starventure is right, why is nyc not capable of building a direct connection for their airports? Every bigger european airport has it as default: Heathrow, Amsterdam, Munich, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Madrid, Zurich, Paris, Milano, Berlin, Copenhagen, and dozens more.

@TheGreatLordDufus 8 месяцев назад

@@EMSpdx Charles de Gaulle to Gare du Nord, one RER train. Not Orly airport though. London Heathrow has the Heathrow Express, the Elizabeth line and the tube. Luton, Gatwick, Stansted not so much. Most major western European, and advanced economy east Asian, cities have direct train connection from at least one airport to their city centre. Of course there are exceptions.

@darkwoodmovies 8 месяцев назад

I always found it insane that you can get literally anywhere by train from Manhattan... even other states! But noooo not the airport, for that you have to transfer 10 miles away and connect with the airtrain.

@starventure 8 месяцев назад

@@darkwoodmovies Cuomo ruined the chances of LGA ever getting rail with his foolish idea of using Flushing as a connection to the 7 train. Had they incorporated a new train line from the very beginning that would have gone through Jackson Heights to the Woodside yards, the terminal design would have been different from what it is now. Now there is no room for a train station other than to go eastwards towards Flushing.

The ride was so convenient and quick.

Went to NYC via JFK in December and had absolutely no problem getting to my Long Island City hotel thanks to this video (also booked in LIC thanks to your rec). On the way back to JFK from Midtown I took a Revel (with your discount code so thanks for saving me so much money twice!) and let me tell you: the views of Manhattan at night from the other side of the bridge were completely worth the cost, plus I was too tired to take the train with my luggage. I'm coming back in a couple of weeks via LGA now so I'm back for more tips :)

@thezorak3311 8 месяцев назад

Nice to have updated info! The only issue with Revel (and other apps) is that they only work with US or certain countries numbers. Is there a trick for that? I'll have free roaming, so getting a prepaid sim will be my last option, but I do want to try Revel, Seated, etc. Thanks!

Hi Sarah I’m going to come to NYC in 2 weeks, this video really useful..Although I do have a question. Is it possible to carry a large suitcase in buses or trains from Newark?

@timlaunyc 8 месяцев назад

It depends on how large. Private busses (NJ Transit is public transport) like the airport shuttles will have luggage storage at the bottom, accessible from outside, so you won't be carrying that with you to your seat. The airport busses will stop at Port Authority Bus Terminal on 8th Ave, between 40th and 42nd. You can also take the Newark (EWR) Airtrain to Newark Airport Station on NJ Transit. There you can take an NJ Transit train into New York Penn Station (8th Ave, between 31st and 32nd street).

Not a fan of it) it would be JFK or LGA. Any way traveling in and out of NY can be pricey. I would still take a taxi 🚕.

@edflaherty1887 8 месяцев назад

When I first started visiting the city I was intimidated with the subway ect. So I started watching videos like yours , printed out maps ect. I decided to make my first subway ride simple from Penn Station to uptown with no transfers to help me gain confidence. After that it was easy ! Also, just use your phone to pay . If you are not sure, ask someone for help . The police as well as other New Yorkers are very friendly . Also a printed copy of the subway system trains are a good back up plan that give one some insurance . So just do you homework and resist using the taxis and Uber - they are expensive and take much more time as you are moving through the streets slowly - at least 5 times slower ! Trains are less than $3.00. I paid $30.00 to go from midtown to downtown and the time it took was 35 minutes vs 10 minutes !

You can also use the LIRR from LGA/Woodside using the Q70 which is probably actually faster than the M60 you mentioned.
