There are a number of ways to EWR that don't cost and arm and leg, but do take a while.
Kew Gardens to Jamaica - Cab I guess
E train to Penn Station - $2.50
North Jersey Coast Line Train - Newark Airport RR station - like $12.50
Air Train - EWR
At Penn Station you can also walk to the PATH and take that to Newark and get on a Train to the Newark Airport RR station though it is still like $8-10. Plus if you get yourself to Hoboken or Newark, the cab ride from there drops to $30
Just a little help for the newbies coming to NYC. As said earlier though, I beg for EWR trips on the ER and never get them. Lots of 88 trips though and some 73.
Oh and it all depends on the time of day. 5 am show at EWR without a car is a nightmare.

Can I add someone at the beginning of my anniversary, and then delete someone at the tail end? Or am I only allowed to add ordelete only once per year?
Case: Assumes anniversary date is Jan 1st, I added someone as TC in June, my parents immediately lose S2 (is that correct?), Can I delete the TC by Dec. 31st, so when next Jan 1st comes my parents would have access to S2 again?
I tried to look the stuff up on travelnet, but it's pretty muddy.
Thanks for the guru out there!

Because look at the trips, 4-day shows at 0515 and ends at 2010.
Now if you're in Kew Gardens how in the world do you get to EWR for a 515 show? I'd say you go the night before. But what if you get a 0300 SC and they call at 314am. I'd pull the I'll get there when I get there but does the train even get there that early?

Seems like a win win for all though kinda stinks for the new hires. Most new hires I know stayed on the same jet for 12 months unless MD'd by things the COMPANY did. I know a couple who went from ER to domestic 76, but that is very little training.

The gains are huge and will cost more than the quids.
Also, I want to note that not just the Negotiator's Note pad was published, but so was the actual LOA language. It was posted simultaneously on the DALPA site. That is a step in the correct direction.
