I've got the same sitch in a couple of weeks. Arrive at JFK at 3:00pm and leave for Budapest at 8:00pm on a Sunday. I'll have access to the international lounge (it's still there, isn't it), but was wondering if it was worth it to try to get into Manhattan (or one of the other areas) for a good meal. Would I have the time? Hanging out in SC is OK, but I'd rather head out if possible. Is there a train into Manhattan? How long would the lines be returning? Having five hours may be cutting it a tad close, but I'd like to hear from members here.
Thanks
