This is actually harder than you think. Make sure to leave more than plenty of time as you have to get your way across the city.
-
Uber. I tried twice but uber drivers in NJ will refuse to take you to JFK. They mumble something about licensing. Probably more likely they don’t want to be stuck there.
-
NJ transit to LIRR to airtrain. This takes two hours but is cheap. The main problem is that the trains can face huge delays. So not super reliable.
-
Car service. Yes it will set you back $200 plus but at least you know you will get there.
-
Rent a car. Super expensive because you have to pay the dropoff charges.
