Members who fly into JFK can access an in-station link to the AirTrain platform — AirTrain travels from the airport to the Jamaica station of the Long Island Railroad every 4 to 10 minutes. The AirTrain ride takes about 10 minutes and costs $5. Once at the Long Island Railroad, take an eastbound train to Westbury for approximately $7.50 (if purchased at the station, otherwise approximately $14.00 if purchased on the train). Once at the Westbury train station, you can either take a short, two-mile cab ride to the hotel or make arrangements to have another convention attendee pick you up.
