Quote by daDouce Man:There is no way to exit at Howard Beach and go directly into the parking lot. 100% incorrect, both for the subway portion and the AirTrain portion. For the subway portion, here's photographic proff:  The exit pictured leads directly into the parking lot. This exit is used when train service on the line south of Howard Beach is replaced by buses. The volume of buses required for such a service would overwhelm the low-capacity streets of the Howard Beach neighborhood. For the AirTrain portion, this image from the Port Authority's web site:  See the "Free Shuttle Bus to Long Term Parking" and "Long Term Parking Area C"? How could one access those from the AirTrain if there wasn't an exit at the station that leaves the traveler near them? |

In this case I'm 100% correct.LOL, that will be the day, Russel. As almost always, what you wrote was 100% incorrect. No matter how many times I and others correct you, you still think you have some knowledge about things you have no knowledge of. And surprisingly (or not), you also have no knowledge of things that most reasonable people would think almost certainly expect you to have. Like this. At a station you have worked at many times. UnFREAKNbelievable. |

Exit the station.Walk north on local Streets to Cohancy St which crosses Nassau Expressway and Belt Parkway to North Conduit. Make right. Walk along North Conduit to 119 St aka Lefferts Blvd. Make right under Belt Parkway and Nassau Expressway into parking lot and Airtrain station. |

Sure it is.No it's not. At Jamaica you pay a $5 fare to ride a transit line TO the airport. At Howard Beach you pay a $5 fee to cross an imaginary line (the airport property line) so that you can then board the free on-airport circulator and ride it wholly within the airport. The fare is just, and fair. The fee is BS. |

The sign over the gate says: EXIT EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY.Normally the gate is closed and locked. Only opened once in a great while like G/O's Otherwise you can not enter or exit the station there. |

At Jamaica and Howard Beach you pay $5 to enter or exit Airtrain.PLUS $2.25 if you decide to enter the subway at either location. The closest I've seen to an imaginary line that you describe is commonly refered to as a JFK TURNSTILE. |

Ever look at a track map of Airtrain lately?I thought not. The Jamaica and HB branches are Airtrain lines that go to the airport, loop once then go back to Jamaica or HB. The on-airport circulator just loops endlessly around the terminals. |
