Where exactly in midtown? This is key for right advice here.
If walking distance to Penn, take the LIRR. If near E/F maybe train, maybe uber. Close to midtown tunnel, just drive and cross your fingers.

Take the LIRR. Way quicker than subway.

Thanks. Will be cutting it close!

take the train. it would be more convenient.

Train would be longer but more predictable

yeah. if there a small traffic jams in queens, then you might just late for your flight.

Could take E train there, might be faster

Agree, and was going to respond A definitely goes, but it’s typically slower unless you start downtown. longer ride through brooklyn vs queens regardless of express/local in manhattan.

no. go to Penn station and take the express
