From which airport (Newark, JFK) is easier to get to Manhattan? -

Using subway or bus, I don t want to pay cabs. Thanks

It would really depend on where in Manhattan you are going. If you are going to midtown / Penn Station area, then Newark is closer. You can take the train form the airport to Penn Station New York and it take a little less than 45 minutes.From JFK you can take the AirTrain to the subway, which of course gets you wherever you want to be in Manhattan. The ride to Penn Station is longer, but it is also cheaper, plus if you were going uptown this would take less time.If you were going to the World Trade Center, then Newark would be faster, as you would take the train downtown to Newark Penn Station, and then take a PATH train to WTC (this ride is 22 minutes, plus however long it takes to get to Newark Penn Station). An even better, secret way would be to take the free shuttle provided by the Hilton Newark Penn Station, which is connected to Penn Station, from the airport and then take the PATH train in - this will cost you a grand total of $1.75.

I prefer Newark,especially to get into Manhattan.You can pay $15 to take the Airlink which monorails you from the airport to Newark s Penn Station. Then you get on the PATH train.I think it s about $15 to take a bus directly into Manhattan. And I prefer the bus over the Monorail/PATH option because otherwise it meansMONORAIL/PATH option:Get luggageGet on monorailGet luggageGet on path trainGet luggage and struggle through Madison Square Garden/Penn Station, emerge onto street with more flying elbows.Whereas with the bus:Get luggageGet on busDescend onto city streets and flying elbows.I d rather just get my luggage once and deal with the crowds once. What would you rather do?

Newark.It s closer to Manhattan than JFK.It s 3 stops on NJ transit to Penn StationBy public transportation, Newark is about 45 minutes from terminal to Midtown ManhattanJFK is about an hour and a half from terminal to Midtown.

Newark.

Manhattan doesn t have an airport so you won t be able to fly into Manhattan whether it s from Newark or JFK.

JFK. To get to Manhattan from Newark you have to take the train and it only stops at Penn Station.

Newark

shuttle is $17 http://www.goairlinkshuttle.com/

of course Santa is real. I get a lump of coal from him every Christmas.. but in these days of high energy cost, Im not sure if thats a bad thing :-/I just wish he would clean up after the reindeer before he goes on his merry way.

Santa is defintitly real.. It is a proven fact. Your friends who dont believe in him wont get presents from Santa.. But because you do... You will get presents from him this year (: Ive actually caught Santa once! It was amazing! He is soooo nice! Believe your parents...

Saint Nicholas is based on a real person:http://www.stnicholascenter.org/Brix?pag��

Real is such a subjective term....and in SoCal it s very very subjective......LOL

What an odd question for the Los Angeles TRAVEL section.He s as real as you want him to be.

Pics or it didn t happen.
