    It most certainly can!!!! Your best bet is to travel by bus from the airport to Manhattan. WHy? Safer, easier and “LESS EXPENSIVE”!!!! The bus may run you…$2.00, but the cab maybe $45.00!! Big difference. Just do yourself and your pockets the favor on that day! Take the bus, lol! You’ll thank me later…

    Not that I want to correct SVincent but there is no bus at JFK that will take you directly to Manhattan for only $2.00.

    But it will be quite difficult to get a cab at the airport (everyone is coming in for the fireworks). Trust me – with all the people coming in, taxi drives will not be taking the day off.

    Your best bet: Take the subway:

    Take the AirtTrain to the Howard Beach station. Then take a Manhattan bound A train to Manahhtan (since you didn’t indicate where in Manhattan you are going, I can’t advise further).

    The AirTrain fare is $5 and the subway $2. When you get to the Howard Beach AirTrain station you will see MetroCard vending machines. There are people in maroon vests who will assist you should you need it. Purchase a $7.00 MetroCard and the proceed to the turnstiles marked NYC Subway. When you get thru the turnstiles go to the left and take the elevator or escalator down to the subway platform. The A train runs about every 16 minutes. Take the A into Manhattan, you can change to other subway line at various points at no extra cost if that will get you closer to where you want to go.

    Note: If you will be returning to JFK you may wanyt to buy two $7.00 MetroCards or put $14.00 onto one. That way you’ll save time for the return trip.

    Review the NYC subway map online to get a better idea of how to get to your destination. You can get a hard copy of the subway map at the Howard Beach station. Just ask the people in the maroon vests.
