Do you happen to know the name of the company? I'm thinking I might book something rather than join the worlds longest taxi queue.

I've been a regular traveller to NYC for about 6 years and it's always been something to have you pay for. $5 IIRC.

If that shuttle company is that good then I'd be keen to know too - though it's a flat fare of $45 for a cab, if it is as good as you say it is that would be brilliant.

Last time I stayed at the red roof inn near Korea town (56 W and 6th I think) very good, and works out to less than $100 a night.

Super Shuttle if memory serves?

You dont even have to book, go to the Ground Transportation desk after youve collected your luggage, and the agents will put you on a "collection list". They put certain people together if they are all going to be dropped off in the same area. Either way, its about a 45 minute wait I think whether you've booked or not, its a mare when you're just soooooooooooo excited and want to get going already

There was a TGI Fridays right opposite the hotel we stayed in (Ramada New Yorker), by a McDonalds as I recall. There's a nice cinema there too, something to do perhaps when the nights are too cold to do much else
