Upvotes for expanding the transit options to both. It's absolutely embarrassing NYC doesn't have better ways to get to any of the three airports.

- apaprocki 11y agoIt's funny to me because most people I know would prefer to get in a car and gamble with sitting in traffic rather than take the easy, almost always on time subway (e.g. E train) + AirTrain to JFK. From midtown it is always 45 minutes door to terminal, but people avoid it for some reason because... ? It isn't a sparkly white JFK train that terminates in Manhattan? Newark is served by train from Penn Station, already a massive hub, that gets you there in 15 minutes.
- joelrunyon 11y agoChicago has great service to both airports. ~30 minutes to both o'Hare and Midway. So much better than dealing with the headache of a cab.
- Grishnakh 11y agoWhy do they need to have a special train for each airport? What's so hard about putting them on the regular subway system so people don't need to pay a high fare and waste a lot of time in transfers and walking between stations with a ton of luggage? Have you even been to Penn Station? It's not a short walk from the trains to the subway. That's probably why a lot of people prefer cars.
