A fare is not the proper word. If you think the term toll implies a particular view with which you disagree, you can use fee, as both tolls and fares are fees.


It's a fare to ride airtrain. There is no "toll" to enter airport property, that's where I find the loonacy. If you want to use "fee", I can see that more than "pedestrian toll". But it's a "fee" for the Jamaica people then too.

When entering a subway station EVERYONE has to pay a fare except scofflaws and people who have been granted leave to enter without a fare. In the case of Howard Beach AirTrain that is not the case.


Yes, and I addressed that in another post. If you find that a "problem", and I only find it a problem in semantics, than simply close the access to that station from that far end of the parking lot. That station wasn't necessary for the "circulator" to the parking lot, but since it's there, they allowed access for people that happen to park at that part of the parking lot. Make them walk to the real parking lot station, and that "semantics" problem is solved. I would find that silly to stop that access just because of a semantics argument, but if that would solve the supposed inequity, then so be it.
