What’s the best place to park at JFK? Factors for me: best price, ease of getting in and out and to terminal, and safety.

leaving Friday night and arriving back tuesday.

not familiar with jfk too much as I mostly use ewr.

thanks in advance.

Park at 15X on the Turnpike at Edison ParkFast. Take NJ Transit Train 1 stop to Penn Station. Take LIRR to Jamaica. Take AirTrain to your terminal.

If you must drive all the way to JFK, park at Lefforts Blvd Long Term Parking. Then take AirTrain to your terminal.

Few things I hate more passionately than having to fly in/out of JFK.

I’ve done long term parking with shuttle service to $ from terminals. It was fine.

I’ve also had a car service…much better.

I assume all the construction out there is still going on, so be aware of that.

Flying out of JFK next Friday for a week in Antigua. Haven’t been to JFK since the nineties! Any suggestions on affordable long term parking options that are safe?

Uber or car service. It will save you a lot of headaches.

Major construction at JFK ongoing. Have to take a shuttle bus to outlying parking lots to get picked up by Uber (but they are pretty efficient with it).

Clearly you haven’t tried to fly out of JFK on a Friday Night. Mass Transit is the easiest way in and out, because you don’t have to fight traffic.
Driving to Airtrain is option #2, though not ideal.

Had a flight out of EWR and then United canceled daily service to Antigua so I had to go out of JFK unfortunately…
