I've taken the A train from Upper Manhattan to Howard Beach to the free shuttle bus for a long time. I definitely appreciate the AirTrain much more than waiting for the shuttle bus, waiting for the bus driver to show up, waiting through all the parking lot stops where people get on with tons of large baggage, waiting as those same people have to haul off their baggage at terminal stops before mine, etc. Switching to the E train to Jamaica and getting the AirTrain there has made getting to JFK a faster option for me. </font>
A train between JFK and Upper Manhattan? Talk about painful. Now I see why you have become a Jamaica convertee.
