roop: May 10, 2002; I am become Roberto, the destroyer of scoring chances

Going from JFK to the Sheraton Brooklyn (228 Duffield Street), it looks like I can:

Take the AirTrain to Jamaica Station, take the LIRR to Atlantic Station and be a 10 minute walk from the hotel.

Can anyone verify if this is worth it (cost < $10) versus just taking a cab ($45)?

And is it safe?

You could also take the airtrain to Howard Beach and hop on the A train to Jay Street, probably save you a few bucks. Don't forget that in addition to the LIRR fare you're stuck paying $5 to get off the airtrain at Jamaica and Howard Beach.

Is it safe? Yeah, I take the A train from howard beach all the time and used to take the airtrain every day for work and I've never had problems. Walking around Jay street area will be no problem either.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking about the A train however figured it would be easier on the LIRR since the wife and I will have luggage with us.
