Transportation

Car
You are living in Manhattan, there is no need in a car!

There is little parking and you have to move your car every day from one side of the street to another. Moreover there is always traffic.

Also the public transport system is great!

Taxi & Subway

 * Uber, everywhere below 96st $10, good for rides to/from JFK


 * Gett, everywhere below 110st $10


 * CarmelLimo, good for minivan rides to/from JFK


 * MetroCard EasyPay, automatically rechargeable MetroCard.

Rentals

 * Enterprise, from LGA or EWR normally best prices. Best practice is to always return in LGA, from which the M60 bus takes you to Manhattan for $2.50


 * Hotwire, sometimes one can find better deals. Play with dates and pick-up/ drop-off points can shave the price by more than 1/2. Sometimes adding another day or two can make the whole rent cheaper!
