Overview

One route of the Airtrain JFK connects all of the airport's terminals to the Long Island RailRoad at Jamaica, where there are fast suburban trains to New York (Penn Station, Grand Central Terminal and Long Island City) and suburban Long Island. It costs $8 (June 2022) to pass through the barrier gates at Jamaica station. This can only be paid by MetroCard: ticket machines are available at Jamaica.
