I did it for a few months from Kew Gardens at a 2 hour call out before 9E went co-domicile.

It's plenty doable in half that time or less. You'll have a crash pad in Queens. From Elmhurst or Corona (like half a mile from the terminal), you can walk or take a bus. From Kew Gardens, you can take a taxi/car if you're averse to public transit, or you can take the subway and bus if you're not. Elmhurst and Corona are closer. Kew Gardens is a crew-centric neighborhood central to LGA and JFK.

Fun if you try to embrace NYC and the fluidity of the situation. Miserable if you're too busy being miserable thinking about how you're on reserve and/or in NYC.
