I am not talking about the JFK Express either. I am talking about the $2 shuttle bus that was REQUIRED to take for the subway people coming out of Howard Beach. Anyone not paying for the TTTTP had to pay a $2 fee to take the shuttle bus from Hoaward Beach to the terminals.The bus was part of MTA's service to the airport terminals. It has nothing to do with the PA, AFAIK. So it is irrelevant to the free shuttle bus circulator from HB and the free airtrain circulator from HB. The PA? When did the PA start running the Q10? The Q10 always had access to the airport, it's no different now than before the MTA owned it, and before there was AirTrain. the only difference now is that they dump them all out (more ocnveniently) to the circulator. The bus is no longer at the mercy of the traffic, and all weather conditions (for passengers) as it was when it had to circle the whole airport. The bus can now get out of the airport much faster than before. If you want to reroute the Q10 to Howard Beach instead instead of going down lefferts, be my guest, but I can't see how that would be a change for the better. It's really simple. The bus didn't just add a stop at Fed Circle for the convenience of the passengers to get on airtrain. It was forced to STOP making stops at all the terminals except one. That is very INCONVENIENT for people who value a one seat ride. |
