Then it looks like we agree. Andrea initially said she was looking to leave Columbia at 5am. That concerned me.

Anyone riding a subway at ANY hour should try to sit in the car with the conductor/driver (which is the middle or first cart on the subway). Simple NYC common sense. If you run to catch the train and end up in an empty cart - at the next stop switch to the next cart.
Agreed.

Enjoy your trip/holiday.
You too.
