FWIW, I just read on the Port Authority web site that the 10 trip airtrain ticket is, in fact, good for 365 days. But I guess they print them on metro cards, which have a shorter expiration date when they aren't used for the 10-trip airtrain card.

I assumed I would just take a cab from the hotel to Penn Station; LIRR to Jamaica; then Airtrain. I have no idea which entrances/exits to/from the subway have escalators these days, and I sure don't want to get stuck carrying my bags up/down multiple flights of stairs. Anyway, we'll figure it out when we're there. It's not a big deal and certainly nothing to worry about.
