As long as we are doing dumb questions: I live close to JFK south of JSQ and sometimes take the 10 or 119 to JSQ to catch the Path. But I have never tried to take the 119 all the way to Port Authority. What happens at JSQ if you are on the 119 from, say Communipaw? Do you just stay in your seat? Do you have to get off? Also how many zones is it from south of Communipaw to Port Authority?

wait, what's your question lol? if you get on at Communipaw and want to go Port Authority? Well I think it's like 4 Zones Interstate so you just show that to the bus driver. One time, my dad wanted to get off at Willow + 19th St since he showed a 2 zone intrastate pass, but the bus was so crowded he couldn't get off so he went all the way to Port Authority and the driver didn't notice.

not gonna lie, my butt hurts from sitting for that long since the 119 is making constant stops picking up people at every stop lol. I don't do it that often.

I'm not interested in skipping out on zones, just wondering what the experience is like if you are taking the 119 through JSQ. Can you just stay in your seat on the bus? Sometimes I just prefer a one seat ride even if it takes longer.

well, if you paid correctly you just stay in your seat. I've personally never taken the 119 to port authority, but have taken it from port authority to a little past Communipaw.

Yes, oddly I have also taken it that direction once, and I must have been absorbed in reading or something and didn't notice if we stopped inside JSQ or went past it on JFK.

I've taken the 119 to PA a bunch, it stops for a minute at JSQ to pick up people, then continues along the route, so no need to get off
