Subway riders are not charged an access fee to the airport. Plenty of subway riders enter the airport via the Q10 bus, and pay no fee. There is no price discrimination against people who have used the subway as part of their journey to the airport.

You know what I mean. Subway riders taking the most direct route. Via HB. But if anything, that just shows more inequity. Why are some MTA riders charged and other MTA riders not charged?

There is nothing in that mission statement that is contradictory to charging a fee to use the walkway between Howard Beach and JFK.

Not true. No where in there does it say to maximize revenue. This pedestrian toll / fare inequity only does that - maximize revenue. It does not "To identify and meet the critical transportation infrastructure needs of the bistate region's businesses, residents, and visitors" ... "providing access to the rest of the nation and to the world, and strengthening the economic competitiveness of the New York-New Jersey metropolitan region."
