Going to NYC weekend before Christmas…?
Flying out of ATL, which airport should I fly into…being the easiest to get from the airport to the hotel near times square?? Should I go LaGuardia, Newark or JFK?? What’s the efficient mode of transportation from the airport to the hotel? Taxi, Shuttle or subway?

Also, it’s the weekend before Christmas…what to do and what to wear?We are a 21 year old couple in love going to visit NYC for our 1st time…lots of opinions appreciated!

Im staying in a hotel called the Marrackech Hotel and its near central park, any ideas of a rough guide to how much a taxi would be from jfk to there? Thanks in advance.

I’ll be in NY for a week, I’ll land in JFK airport and my hotel in in lower east side. I would like to use mainly the subway.
I know about bus service, but I would prefer enter NYC from the undreground (subway) or by train.

I am traveling to New York City in the beginning of October – I have never been before so I’d like some tips or suggestions.. I have no idea what to expect or even where to stay. I will be flying into JFK airport and am still looking for a hotel.. I will most likely be staying in marriott hotel so if u know of a great area to stay with a marriott location that would be most helpful. Also, I am interested in maybe seeing a show – any suggestions of where and what the cost may be? I am only planning on being in new york for 3 days so yes, a very short trip..

also, how does transportation work? I’ve heard it is not wise to rent a car so ill probably be taking public transportation or walking… any advice on this would also be appreciated… I am on a budget so any affordable/cheap activities etc is great!

Thanks!

240,000 dollars awarded to man forced to cover Arab T-shirt saying;
"WE WILL NOT BE SILENT!"

An airline passenger forced to cover his T-shirt because it displayed Arabic … NEW YORK (AFP) – An airline passenger forced to cover his T-shirt because it displayed Arabic script has been awarded 240,000 dollars in compensation, campaigners said Monday.

Raed Jarrar received the pay out on Friday from two US Transportation Security Authority officials and from JetBlue Airways following the August 2006 incident at New York’s JFK Airport, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) announced.

"The outcome of this case is a victory for free speech and a blow to the discriminatory practice of racial profiling," said Aden Fine, a lawyer with ACLU.

Jarrar, a US resident, was apprehended as he waited to board a JetBlue flight from New York to Oakland, California, and told to remove his shirt, which had written on it in Arabic: "We will not be silent."

He was told other passengers felt uncomfortable because an Arabic-inscribed T-shirt in an airport was like "wearing a T-shirt at a bank stating, I am a robber,’" the ACLU said.

Jarrar eventually agreed to cover his shirt with another provided by JetBlue. He was allowed aboard but his seat was changed from the front to the back of the aircraft.

Last week, nine Muslims, including three children, were ordered off a domestic US flight after passengers heard what they believed were suspicious remarks about security.

Although the passengers, eight of them US citizens, were cleared by the FBI, they were reportedly still barred from the AirTran flight.

Security has been at a high level in US airports since the September 11, 2001 hijacked airliner attacks against the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon in Washington.

However, rights groups and representatives of the Muslim community say the security measures have led to frequent discrimination and harassment.
Maybe someone should wear a tee shirt on a plane saying I LOVE KILLING, or I MAKE BOMBS!

would you fly then? it’s free speech, but where does the line get drawn that you can’t wear a tee shirt in a bank saying " this is a hold up"!

I will take the A train to hawrd beach,JFK airport,I wanna get to building 14 JFK,do I ihave to take the airtrain or is there any free bus or something

I was looking on the airports’ websites to figure out how to go. My husband and I will have a LOT of luggage, so we don’t want to transfer all over the place, we just want a straight shot. I found something about a bus that goes directly to JFK, but it doesn’t give much info about it. Where does it pick you up/drop off? How long will it take? There is no website directly for this supposed bus. Has anyone ever taken it?

So my fiancee and I are going to Greece for our honeymoon. We leave JFK airport on Tuesday, May 26 @ 4:00 pm and land in Athens on Wednesday, May 27 @ 9:00 am. We will be spending 2 nights in Athens at the Stanley hotel. We will then travel by ferry to the K Hotel in Mykonos where we will spend 3 nights. We will then travel by ferry to the El Greco Hotel in Santorini for 3 nights. After that we will fly back to Athens then back to JFK.

Our package includes the flight, hotel, breakfast at hotels, 1 dinner, all transfers and transportation to and from the hotels. We are also taking a tour of Athens, Santorini & Mykonos. Basically all we will really be paying for is lunch, dinner, any other incidental transportation needs, any extra services (like spas) and souvenirs

I am trying to figure out how much money (in Euros) I should have with us. Should it be in cash or travelers checks or some of each? I will have a credit card on me for emergencies, but I would prefer not to use it.

I am looking for the cheapest way to get from JFK airport to Newark EWR airport. Please help!!!! Thanks!
