Flying home - what would you do?
By all means, just go directly to Newark. Getting from JFK to EWR
(Newark) is a MAJOR hassle in many areas, including convenience, planning, timing and money.

Now, Song or Continental will fly us directly to Newark for 480$ total, while Jetblue or Song will fly us to JFK for only 350$ total. If we fly to JFK we would of course have to allocate time to transfer to Newark. What would you do? Pizzaman |

If we fly to JFK we would of course have to allocate time to transfer to Newark. If you think you would enjoy the trip across NYC (I love that sort of thing) - especially if you had the time to break the trip in the middle and walk around and have lunch there - then go for the JFK flight. Otherwise, if you're purely concerned about efficiency and cost, Newark wins. You'll spend $20 apiece to get from JFK to EWR and it will take close to 2 hours all told. Not worth it unless the journey itself is a reward. miguel -- Hit The Road! Photos and tales from around the world: http://travel.u.nu |

OP is flying HOME to Denmark. Perhaps you think Jetblue - a US DOMESTIC airline accept "Danish Dollars" (Yes, I know the currency of Denmark is the Kroner) |

Well, they did use the DOLLAR sign. If you go to Mexico you'll find that they use the $ before Mexican Pesos amounts. When it come to currency, the USA doesn't have a corner on the "$" symbol. -- ________ To email me, Edit "xt" from my email address. Brian M.

When it come to currency, the USA doesn't have a corner on the "$" symbol. They are Danish people asking about flying from Orlando to the NYC area to connect to a flight to Denmark. Why would they be stating the price difference in pesos? And, if you look at the post I was replying to, the guy was asking &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&& As oposed to what ever funds for the country the .dk (Denmark?) email came from! Or didn't you notice that? Are we talking about a $130 difference in U.S. funds, or foreign currency? ************************************************** ***************** So, my response to that was they used the dollar sign. Since they don't use the dollar sign for the Danish Krone, then I assume they meant US dollars as that was the only other option in the post I responded to. He said "as oposed to whatever fund for the country"... |
