Question

What is the best way to get to and from the airport?

Answer

NYC is served by 3 major airports - JFK and LGA in Queens, and Newark in New Jersey. You can take public transit (see more info below), or hire a NYC taxi, Uber, Lyft or airport shuttle to take you to and from your lodging. For a car service we recommend Arecibo, they serve all 3 airports and offer a flat rate, as well as car seats for an extra $10 charge. To reserve a car, go here: https://arecibocc.com/reservations/ If you are traveling through JFK via public transit, take the AirTrain to the A, E, J or Z subway lines. See: https://www.jfkairport.com/to-from-airport/air-train If you are traveling through LGA via public transit, get the M60 or free LaGuardia Link Q70 bus to transfer to a subway station in Queens or Manhattan. For more info on bus service, see: https://www.laguardiaairport.com/to-from-airport/public-transportation If you are traveling through Newark via public transit, take a NJ Transit train from Newark Airport to NY Penn Station in Manhattan. From Penn you can transfer to bus and subway lines. To book a NJ transit ticket go to: https://www.njtransit.com/trip-planner-to Please let us know if we can help!

Yes! We would love to see your kids. If your child is above the age of 3 and was not included on the RSVP, please speak with us about adding them to the guest list. We have limited capacity, but we will see what we can do! Babies and toddlers are not included as part of the official guest count, since they will not be partaking in the party food or drinks.
