Posted by Terrapin Station on Mon Mar 3 13:29:42 2008, in response to Re: Air Train question, posted by GP38/R42 Chris on Mon Mar 3 13:24:56 2008. We went through this already. The $5 is not a rip off, there used to be a $2 charge when JFK Express was running for people entering from Howard Beach but who didn't have a JFK Express Slip.Charged by whom? Then for 10 years people lucked out, got a free ride on an unreliable bus. How was it unreliable? And how do you know the previous bus wasn't just as "unreliable"? AirTrain replaces that unreliable shuttle and once again a fee is charged for use of that more convenient and seamless connection, this time by the PA instead of the MTA. There is no precedent for a fee being charged by the airport to access the airport property. Either way, there used to be a fee at Howard Beach, so it's a return to that once a better service was provided once again. Nope, see above. |
