I'm thinking public bus/train? I've also heard tale of a FA shuttle.

You can do the Q-runner if it's not full of F/A's. They have priority.

So, i am at a loss and maybe someone can help me get some SA back. I am on reserve, and just got assigned a 3-day trip that was originally an ATL trip. However there was another guy on the list that is senior to me but, he is in group 1 whilst i am in group 2. He has 5 days avail and i have 16. why would i get the trip and not him?
i try and read the PWA and its like a foreign language. i promise have tried to read section 23 N & O. The follow on question is.... can i call scheduling and politly say i am new and stupid and to please edumacate me without ****ing anyone off and getting fired before i get off probation? i just don't really get how they award reserve and I am too stupid to understand the PWA. Thanks Dudes!

I suspect you will find the other pilot was not legal for one reason or another. He may have had a 30 hr off in 7 issue or 100 in 28 ect...

Not the Q Runner, that's different. You
want the Crew Runner (F/A Golden Touch van). You can find the current schedule on Dnet / IFS / NYC / Crew Runner. Runs twice a day from Kew Gardens to EWR with stops at LGA and a downtown hotel.
Easiest/best value is to get on E train to NY (NJ station with same name) Union station ($2.50?) then take NJ train to EWR ($12.00?), save your NJ train ticket and ride the AirTrain to the airport for free (normal ticket is $5).

The have the exact same computer access as crew scheduling and can quickly confirm the coverage.

Here is the answer he is looking for in absence of the FA's crew runner.
From LGA: Q70 bus to Jackson Heights station (it's the only stop and takes approx 15 mins). From Jackson Heights take the E train to 34th Street (Penn Station) which takes about 30 mins. Once in Penn Station take the NJ Transit to EWR. 1.5 hrs is sufficient to make the trip and it is very easy.
Time wise the travel time is the same whether you use the crew runner or public transportation.
