Q: How to get to the schools from airports?

NOTE: The best way to get to the schools from New York's J. F. Kennedy, La Guadia and Newark airports on the first day you arrive here is by taxi. Remember to take only yellow taxis. Taxis are readily available outside any terminal of the airports 24 hours a day. Please refer to the information on this page for taxi fares and to direct your taxi driver to your destination.

We wish you a safe and pleasant trip. See you in NYC.
