Helpful. Thank you for posting this.
Cheers!
Haha, stand on the right and keep the left free for people to pass. Keep walking and don't stop to look at the map when you get off the escalator – sounds just like London!
I want to know how the New York City subway is one of the fastest way to travel around New York City
Ok, hopefully heading to NYC later this year, flying into JFK, is there an easy place to buy a metro card there?
And buy from people selling to you for the Low you’ll definitely get a good deal!
This is a must see video if coming to NY for the first time. It's even good for locals too! Great job!
Good stuff to know before I visit. Thx
Going to visit NYC for the first time this week and this is incredibly helpful. Thanks!
4:14 or just wait to get to a island platform then change there no need to pay
She's not
A pro tip: Always keep your card away from heat, sun light, and your phone.
So, it won't get damaged
The "don't get into an empty car if the others are full, because it might mean broken air conditioning" comment made me smile. That precise thing happened to us when we visited NY, but as we come from London we thought the heat was normal. We did wonder why the New Yorkers were getting on and then straight off again. Mind you, we may not have air conditioning in London, but we do have wide gates for luggage and people who need more room to get through.
6:02 actually my parents and my babysitter made the mistake and I was 51 inches when stopped walking under the turnstile
6:16 do not use a metro card
I used to live in NYC and called the subway the train. I would take the train into the city.
10:33 You cannot use a free transfer to switch from a train to another train. Only from train to bus, bus to train, bus to bus
Girl, this is really helpful. Been to NYC and still did not get it. After watching this video then I get it. Thank you
Something frustrating: A train stops but the doors don’t open because the train’s not in service. Don’t make that mistake!

4. Long Island Railroad
5. Metro North Railroad
6. JFK AirTrain
I love your advice about stepping aside at the top or bottom of stairs and escalators. As laid out in Johnny T's excellent video, there are two speeds in NYC: "move fast, or get outta the way!"
Busses are so underrated. They rock.
Don’t sleep on the ferry!
Even after 12 years it's still confusing sometimes. The main routes I take – either for work, social or airports etc – I am very familiar with, but whenever friends visit me and we go sightseeing I still get confused. Express trains are a blessing and a curse.
Tip if your ever on the glasgow subway mind your head
Disliked cuz you womansplained man spreading.
Subway during rush hour I learned definitely quicker than Uber and I say Uber because I don't do cabs.
Wish I knew this when I moved to NYC, you don't need a Metrocard and can use your credit card (with tap feature) or some phone applications. However, if you are here as a tourist and will use metro lot for a week for a month, only then buy a unlimited weekly metro card. Each ride costs $2.75 no matter where you go and an unlimited weekly pass costs $33, so do your math for the week and decide!
Came here to see how it looks and works… get a slight confusion instead
nice butt.
Giving the fact that someday I want to live in new York, I’m very scared of the subway so I have to teach myself
With the transfer for busses, Do you tell the driver that its a transfer or does it automatically?
Am just trynna get to Brighton beach 🧍🏻♀️
Subway!!!!! 🔥❤🔥❤
You're the best
