The different modes of public transportation are one of them. That also applies to the different ways of getting to one of the city&#8217;s airports. With a population of over 8 million people, when you&#8217;re heading to the airport with your luggage, have a plan ready for your airport route. Here are the options we find the most reliable, affordable, and bearable.<\/p>\n<p><b>Different Transport Options<\/b><\/p>\n<p>There are several options of getting to the city\u2019s airports. Bottom line, it all comes down to your preferred method of travel, where you\u2019re travelling from, and your budget. Here\u2019s a short introduction to some of the options you can choose from:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One of the options is <b>The Long Island Rail Road, <\/b>also known as the LIRR. The Long Island Rail Road is used by over 300,000 customers every weekday and is a popular choice in regards to transportation. You can take the LIRR from Penn Station or Atlantic Avenue, but only to <b>JFK<\/b> and <b>LaGuardia<\/b>. Keep in mind, while you might find it to be the preferred option, so do a lot of people. Also, the LIRR doesn\u2019t announce which platform each track is on until 10-15 minutes before boarding.<\/li>\n<li>Unfortunately for travelers going to <strong>Newark<\/strong> <b>Airport<\/b> the LIRR is not an option. Travelers to Newark do however have a fairly similar option, the <b>NJ Transit<\/b>. The NJ Transit is New Jersey\u2019s public transportation corporation and its service includes buses, trains, and light rail vehicles. Each year the NJ Transit conducts 223 million passenger trips.<\/li>\n<li>If you&#8217;re more of a bus person, fret not. No matter which of the three airports you&#8217;re heading to, you can take an <b>Airport Express bus<\/b>. It\u2019s a popular option due to eligibility and price, meaning it can also be a crowded option. Note that the travel time given below for the trips to the different airports is only estimated. Always take into consideration rush hour, holidays, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Another option is <strong>the New York subway<\/strong>. New York has a subway system that stretches all over the city, serving all the five boroughs. The majority of the city&#8217;s residents prefer using the subway for their everyday use. According to MTA\u2019s numbers, in 2015, the average weekday subway ridership was 5.7 million. For travelers heading to <b>JFK<\/b> or <b>LaGuardia<\/b>, the subway is another option to consider.<\/li>\n<li>Last by not least there is the option of heading to the airport by car. In New York you can either take a <b>cab<\/b> or get a ride by using the popular online transportation companies <b>Uber <\/b>or <b>Lyft<\/b>. Uber or Lyft allows you to request a ride through their mobile app, making requesting a ride fairly simple affair. This might be the more costly option compared to the others, but it also might be the simplest for the ones bringing a substantial amount of luggage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From Manhattan to the Airport If you&#8217;re new to New York there&#8217;s a lot of things to get acquainted with.
