The infamous JFK Airport...

by Rail: Traveling to/from this airport by rail will take about two transfers, including NYC subway (metro) system, and the NJ Transit. It is a fun way to experience the NYC metro-area local commute, but not recommended for those with large luggage, or for the short tempered.

by Ride Share/Taxi: This may be a very expensive option if you are on your own, and may take a long time during the week, and potentially during the weekend depending on events in the city.
