From Queens/Jamaica, New York, Byway's registries place 3 scenic byways within 30 miles.
Get in
Jamaica is the closest neighborhood to JFK Airport. To get to Jamaica from the airport, either take AirTrain JFK directly to Jamaica Station, a $7.75 fare, or as a cheaper alternative, an MTA Q10 bus from Terminal 5, which charges a regular $3.00 fare (note that this leaves you on the western edge of Jamaica; you can exit the bus at the Jamaica Av stop, right by the 121 St subway station, and take the J or Z train one stop to Sutphin Boulevard or two stops to Jamaica Center). The Q3 bus links JFK Terminal 5 with Hillside Avenue in northern Jamaica.
