221734 - ..
221735 - At Grand Central, still have to get to the airport, which requires a
221736 - series of subway rides changing trains several times at various
221737 - levels in the New York subway system.
221739 - ..
221740 - Travel plan from Grand Central to JFK...
221742 - ..
221743 - Research on the Interent found these directions...
221744 -
221745 - Take the # 7 [ Flushing] subway train to 61st /Woodside $2.00
221746 -
221747 - Go down to train platform below you and take the Long Island
221748 - Rail Road -LIRR to the Jamaica Station $5.00. Your train will
221749 - be on the same platform as the ticket office.
221751 - ..
221752 - Get your LIRR & AirTrain ticket at the same time.
221754 - ..
221755 - When you get to Jamaica, go upstairs and catch the AirTrain
221756 - ($5.00) to JFK.
221758 - ..
221759 - Allow a realistic 45 minutes to an hour about a third of which
221760 - will be spent waiting for trains.
221762 - ..
221763 - Personaly I think that this is the easiest and fastest possible
221764 - way to do this trip
221766 - ..
221767 - This is close the directions Ross prepared 2 days ago on 131201 0731.
221768 - ref SDS 28 PR6F
221770 - ..
221771 - Apparently, there is bus service from Grand Central to JFK that costs
221772 - $15, and cab service costs about $45, so $50 with tip.
221773 -
221774 - [...below on 131203 0915 at 1330 mother and daughter
221775 - traveling from England, said they were charged $60 plus tip
221776 - for getting from Grand Central to JFK. ref SDS 0 225N
221778 - ..
221779 - Thanked Ross for hosting the visit this past week.
221781 - ..
221782 - Ross cautioned to keep walut and cellphones in front pants pockets,
221783 - rather than coat pockets. He reported that Grand Central, and nearby
221784 - Manhatten is nortorious for skilled pickpockets. Someone might brush
221785 - your shoulder while a partner uses a very sharp knife to cut the
221786 - bottom of a back pants pocket, causing the wallet to fall and picked
221787 - up from the ground without the victim being aware.
221789 - ..
221790 - Followed this advice.
221791 -
221793 - ..

2221 -
222101 - Train arrived about 10 minutes after Ross left, and about 5 minutes
222102 - after posted time.
222104 - ..
222105 - Ride went well from Danbury to South Norwalk. At South Norwalk had to
222106 - get off the train; that was the end of the line for the Danbury train.
222107 - There was a 15 minute wait for the next train into New York.
222109 - ..
222110 - Arrived at Grand Central, and walked into the main terminal.
222112 - ..
222113 - Could not find temporary lockers to store luggage, in order walk
222114 - around town a little, as planned in discussion with Ross yesterday on
222115 - 131201 0731. ref SDS 28 1G4H
222117 - ..
222118 - Found an information station in the middle of the facility. The
222119 - attendant immediatly submitted a pre-printed document with the
222120 - following...
222121 -
222122 - JFK Airport Subway Directions
222123 -
222124 - Take the 6 train uptown to 51st Street.
222126 - ..
222127 - Transfer to E train towards...
222129 - ..
222130 - Queens to Sutphin Blvd
222132 - ..
222133 - Transfer to AirTrain to JFK Airport.
222135 - ..
222136 - Since could not find storage lockers, decided to go to the airport.
222137 - The Grand Central Station facility has high volume activity going in
222138 - multiple directions, including upstairs and downstairs. There was
222139 - impression that stopping to think, would cause a collision.
222141 - ..
222142 - Directions to 6 train, seemed to go in the same direction as the 4,5,6
222143 - and 7, so followed the crowd. Came to line. The last person in line,
222144 - said this is the subway access for JFK.
222146 - ..
222147 - At the head of the line an attendant sold a ticket costing $7.75 for
222148 - all remaining train subway transportation through to JFK.
222150 - ..
222151 - She said to take #7 train, which aligns with Ross's itinerary, per
222152 - above, ref SDS 0 GN43, and discussed on Sunday, shown in the record
222153 - for 131201 0731, ref SDS 28 WQ5K, and further instead of taking #6
222154 - train shown in published directions received upstairs, per above.
222155 - ref SDS 0 ST6S
222157 - ..
222158 - After getting a ticket, passed through heavily secured gates and
222159 - followed arrows to gate #7.
222161 - ..
222162 - Before going through the turnstile, asked a young girl, who looked
222163 - fairly normal, if this was the way to JFK. She said it is one way, so
222164 - went through the turnstile, and took escalator to the level below.
222166 - ..
222167 - There were only a few people waiting for trains. In about 5 minutes a
222168 - #7 train arrived. Since trains at Station #7 travel in both
222169 - directions on either side of the platform, asked a woman waiting to
222170 - board, if this train would go to JFK. She said it is going to
222171 - LaGuardia. Since there is plenty of time, decided to pass on this
222172 - train, and do more research on which direction to take #7 train.
222174 - ..
222175 - After the train left, only a few people were still waiting.
222177 - ..
222178 - A middle-aged businessman-looking guy was standing on the other side
222179 - of the platform, waiting for a train on that side.
222181 - ..
222182 - Asked him about getting to JFK.
222184 - ..
222185 - He explained there are several ways, including taking the next train
222186 - on the other side, however, he said the most direct route is to take
222187 - #7 in the opposite direction...
222188 -
222189 - #7 to next stop, and then go upstairs and walk through
222190 - the subway to take...
222192 - ..
222193 - F train to Roosevelt Avenue - don't get off at
222194 - Roosevelt street, or something like that, i.e., there
222195 - are two Roosevelt stops, and so get off at the 2nd one;
222196 - stay on the platform, and wait about 5 minutes, then
222197 - take next train, which is..
222199 - ..
222200 - E train to Jamaica station, and get off, and take...
222202 - ..
222203 - Airtrain to JFK
222205 - ..
222206 - This friendly passenger said he works for, or at one time worked for
222207 - the subway system, or somehow acquired knowledge of all subway routes
222208 - in the City, or that are available in Grand Central Station. In any
222209 - case, he was very sure this route was the easiest, most direct way to
222210 - take the subway to JFK. He further noted it requires the least
222211 - walking between stops and subway levels to board the next train.
222213 - ..
222214 - Boarded #7 - since it seemed to be a short hop, just stood in the
222215 - aisle and held a handrail on the way to the next station. Got off,
222216 - and followed the helpful passenger up the escalator to next level, and
222217 - down a long hallway. He pointed me in the right direction, and then
222218 - said good luck.
222220 - ..
222221 - Followed crowd to F platform.
222223 - ..
222224 - In about 5 minutes, F train arrived, and was very crowded. Took it
222225 - standing up through 4 or 5 stops past first Roosevelt station to the
222226 - 2nd stop at Roosevelt Avenue.
222228 - ..
222229 - New York's subways have helpful electronic sinage that shows the
222230 - stops along the remaining route, so customers are easily oriented on
222231 - the number of remaining stops their destination. As each station is
222232 - reached, the signs update, so the next stop is always at the front of
222233 - the list.
222235 - ..
222236 - Other customers were helpful clarifying that going to JFK required
222237 - getting off on Roosevelt Avenue An elderly male passenger was
222238 - especially helpful.
222240 - ..
222241 - Got off at Roosevelt Avenue station. Waited about 5 minutes at the
222242 - same location, where I got off, and then...
222244 - ..
222245 - E train arrived. After boarding there was another station name
222246 - problem.
222248 - ..
222249 - Turns out there are 2 Jamaica stops. The last stop of Jamaica
222250 - Central, so assumbed that is the best route. However, before Jamaica
222251 - Central, there is a station listed as...
222252 -
222253 - Sutphin Blvd Jamaica, JFK
222255 - ..
222256 - This is kind of similar to printed instructions received earlier today
222257 - at Grand Central Station, per above. ref SDS 0 ST6S
222259 - ..
222260 - Train was very crowded initially; had to stand against the door.
222261 - Signs say don't lean on the door. Several other passengers were
222262 - leaning against the door to keep balance, so followed the crowd on
222263 - this, since there wasn't much choice.
222265 - ..
222266 - After 4 or 5 stops, most passengers had gotten off.
222268 - ..
222269 - Nearing the first Jamaica stop, asked a passenger which Jamaica
222270 - station to take for JFK, and was told that getting off at Sutphin Blvd
222271 - Jamaica, JFK, will work best for taking Airtrain to JFK.
222273 - ..
222274 - Did that, and had a smooth transition to Airtrain. This station is
222275 - modern, like the Airtrain at SFO.
222276 -
222278 - ..
2223 -
2224 -
2225 - 1329
2226 -
222601 - On Airtrain. Virgin airlines is listed on a table prominently
222602 - displayed along the wall at the ceiling, and shows Terminal 4 is for
222603 - taking Virgin flights.
222604 -
222606 - ..
2227 -
2228 -
2229 - 1337
2230 -
223001 - Arrived Terminal 4.
223003 - ..
223004 - Got in line for Virgin Airlines...
223005 -
223006 - http://www.virginamerica.com
223008 - ..
223009 - Waited about 15 minutes in line even though there were no agents at
223010 - the Virgin ticket counters.
223012 - ..
223013 - Waiting in line, talked to a woman and her daughter traveling from
223014 - England. Asked if getting to the airport is complicated in London,
223015 - like in New York, per experience today? ref SDS 0 0O5L The daughter
223016 - said it is worse. This moring they got a lot directions on how to get
223017 - get from Grand Central to JFK, and then decided to take a taxi. Cost
223018 - $60 plus tip.
223020 - ..
223021 - Mentioned seeing notice from the New York Metro system that taxi ride
223022 - from Grand Central to JFK costs $45 plus tip, per above. ref SDS 0
223023 - PT6M The mother smiled, and said the extra $15 they paid shows the
223024 - cost of experience. The daughter said they were charged additional
223025 - fees for several bridge tolls.
223027 - ..
223028 - We also discussed seating space. The mother and dauther both feel
223029 - that Virgin airlines have more leg room than other airlines. This
223030 - indicates cannot solve space problem by taking another airline in
223031 - order to have room for using the computer, solving problem on first
223032 - flight, last Tuesday on 131126 0400. ref SDS 27 4T4K There is a
223033 - little more room taking a bulkhead seat or exit row seat, but have
223034 - upgraded to these rows on prior flights, and found it is a poor
223035 - solution. There is plenty of room in first class that costs $2K plus.
223037 - ..
223038 - Finally, reached the head of line, and was told to get in another line
223039 - for obtaining a boarding pass on domestic US flights. I was in the
223040 - line for Atlantic flights. The big HD screens prominently say Virgin
223041 - Atlantic. Thought this was simply the name of the airline.
223043 - ..
223044 - Went to the next line.

223409 -
223411 - ..
223412 - Yesterday, received letter from Virgin notifying passengers can
223413 - checkin online. Did this and paid $25 to check the large bag.
223415 - ..
223416 - Posting expense ledger...

223442 - ..
2235 -
2236 -
2237 - 1434
2238 -
223801 - Completed security check. The first attendant said did not have to
223802 - remove shoes, because of having paid to check baggage.
223804 - ..
223805 - However, after removing items from computer case and placing contents
223806 - in separate plastic containers for xray examination, including walut
223807 - and keys, the attendant monitoring passengers being body xrayed said
223808 - that since the ticket showing exempt from removing shoes was placed in
223809 - the computer case, that went through the xray machine, it would be
223810 - easier and faster to just take off shoes and go through passenger
223811 - xray examination, rather than try to have an attendant retrieve the
223812 - ticket from the computer case that was now on the other side of the
223813 - luggage xray machine equipment.
223815 - ..
223816 - He said to remove the shoes and just place them on the conveyor belt,
223817 - rather than go back and get another plastic tray container, which
223818 - would then be separate from other customer items.
223820 - ..
223821 - Removed shoes and placed on the conveyor belt.
223823 - ..
223824 - Went through the body xray.
223826 - ..
223827 - Assembled everything and restored to computer case. Put on the shoes.
223829 - ..
223830 - Moved plastic containers in the stack at the end of the luggage xray
223831 - conveyor.
223832 -
223833 -
223835 - ..
2239 -

2241 - 1352
2242 -
224201 - Went to Gate A2. Along the way there are places to eat, including
224202 - McDonald's. At Gate A2, it took about 10 minutes or so walking along
224203 - the walls on both sides of the terminal to finally find a chair next
224204 - an electrical outlet. There are very few wall outlets available in
224205 - the boarding area. Fortunately, at this time, there are very few
224206 - passengers in the waiting area, because the next plan does not leave
224207 - until 1620. This is an advantage of early arrival.
224209 - ..
224210 - Finally got connected to an outlet in a chair along the wall. Someone
224211 - was using one of the plugs, but was not using their computer or
224212 - whatever it was. It was just laying in the seat next to the outlet,
224213 - and looked to be abandoned. I took the vacant adjacent seat, and
224214 - pluged c16 into the 2nd plug in the wall outlet. Notified a security
224215 - office sitting nearby. Turned out the owner was sitting about 10 feet
