New York Hostels/ Travel?
I'm going to NYC in two weeks for a concert, so I'll only be there two days. Firstly, I want to stay in hostel, but I don't want to get raped either. And secondly, I don't know how to get from the airport (JFK) to said hostel or to catch the plane back at 6:55 in the morning. Suggestions? Thanks!

The Chelsea International Hostel provides (discount) airport shuttle service.

Ask for a private room (to be safe) and to meet you at the airport.

Find a nice hotel that has a shuttle. This is the safest way and can be cost effective depending on if you have people with you. You're not going to get raped lol because NYC is not like CSI and different shows ham it up to be. Just keep your wits about you and learn a few ways to put your money in different places. You're more likely to get robbed (especially if you look like a tourist). If you are married you should probably leave your ring with a family member that will take care of it as robbers see something flash and they want it. DO NOT give money to bums no matter how forthright they may be. They deal with ******* a LOT worse than you from day to day and will probably try to push you into giving them money but don't. Shuttle is the way to go. If you take a cab who knows is driving you (especially if you are alone.) You can use the subway if you learn how on a map. Plan on spending $65 if you are using the hotel shuttle.
Use a cab if it's cheaper but only if you are WITH someone like a boy or someone that could keep you from getting raped I guess - if you are worried about that.
