thx for your help

Answer 1

A cab would be quite expensive a year ago it was $35 from midtown to Laguardia Airport and they have gotten an increase since then and you need to go further so probably about $50.00 plus tip.

Take the 1,2,or 3 train north from Penn Sta. to 42nd ST (Times Square) change there to the 7 train eastbound (Queens bound.)  Take that all the way to the end, which is Flushing (I think Main Street.)

Change there to the Q20  bus which runs East on 14th Avenue.

The subways will take about 45 minutes and the bus about 20 minutes.  They both run every few minutes so you should have no trouble making connections.

Answer 2

If no one else answers go to the nearest subway station and ask at the token booth. They are usually knowledgeable. You may have to switch to a bus.

Answer 3

i've been near that location

the easiest directions are as follows:

From PENN STATION. go to the 7th ave side, which you apparently are now.  jump into the nyc subway, and take the 1, 2, of the 3 train uptown. take the train one stop to TIMES SQUARE.  make sure you are at the front of the train (first 3 cars) because when you get off, there will be a staircase going downstairs.

take the staircase downstairs and get on the 7 train. if there is a 7 express, take that, otherwise, take the local.  take the 7 to the last, FLUSHING. make sure you are somewhere in the middle of the train, not the front.  the 7 train is relatively fast and efficient, so this will be a 35-40 min train ride.

the flushing subway station will be located at the intersection of main street and roosevelt ave.

go upstairs and look around. look for the OLD NAVY store on the corner of main st. and roosevelt ave.  on that corner will be the Q65 bus stop going to college point.  across the street will be the Q65 bus going go jamaica. you want the Q65 going to college point.

because you are in flushing, you have to stand at the end of the line to get on the next bus. take the Q65 to the last stop which is exactly (or very close to ) 109-15 14th ave.

please note that downtown flushing (flushing chinatown) will be overwhelming to first time visitors because there are so many people on the streets, it's like times square, but there are tons of buses going everywhere, airplanes flying overhead. busy busy busy.

Answer 4

109-15 14th Ave, College Point, NY 11356 is at 110th St.

Have your MetroCard in good amount or use Unlimited MetroCard.

Faster way to get there, take Jamaica-Center-bound (E) express to Sutphin Blvd-Archer Av/JFK Airport, exit toward LIRR/Airtrain JFK Jamaica Station, then at Sutphin Blvd/94th St, during rush hour Q65 Limited bus will be quicker than local bus. Take that to last stop @ 14th Av/111th St, last stop. Q65 will have Limited Sign on destination or paper limited mostly you see in on New York City Transit bus.

Local buses take 42 minute, but limited takes around 37 minutes!!
