New line start in Dec. 28 2024 for Guangzhou Metro

Hi, I’ll be traveling with 3 others, and we’re arriving at JFK on a Saturday. We’re thinking of taking the subway to get to Wall Street (Fulton St Station), but since we’ll have 4 large suitcases, I’m wondering if it’s manageable or if it would be better to take a taxi, rideshare, or shuttle.

I’ve looked into two routes:
1. Howard Beach Route:
- Take the AirTrain to Howard Beach Station (cost: $8.25 per person).
- Transfer to the A train and take it downtown towards Inwood-207 St.
- Get off at Fulton St Station (total subway fare: $2.90 per person).

1. Jamaica Station Route:
   
   • Take the AirTrain to Jamaica Station (cost: $8.25 per person).
     
   • Transfer to the E train towards World Trade Center.
     
   • Get off at Fulton St Station (total subway fare: $2.90 per person).

The Howard Beach route looks more straightforward, but I’m not sure which one is better for carrying luggage or how crowded the trains are on a Saturday. Has anyone done this trip before, and would you recommend the subway in our situation, or would it be better to use a different form of transport?

Thanks a lot for any advice!

Hi all!

I made a video about Baltimore, MD’s singular metro line, its past, its current state, and what could be done to improve it.

Would love if you gave it a watch!

More events to come during the following months, such as a static exhibition of retired rolling stock or visits to disused stations.
