I'm a first time visitor, arriving fairly late at midnight. Flight lands at 9.55pm, so I expect to be in town at earliest midnight.
That is a fairly safe area as the UES side starts to stretch northwards from the old 96th St boundary. Lexington is the street for the 4,5 and 6 line, with stops at 96 and 106. If you are taking the E train after Airtrain, get off at 59th St and take 6 train Bronx/Northbound to one of the two stops.
