Thanks in advance for any info... |
This might help...but i still wouldn't walk. http://randallsisland.org/maps-dire...andalls-island/
I got a limo with like 10 people the first year of the Zoo and it was only 10 bucks a person from Astoria. Not a bad deal and we got to drink/relax in comfort. Could be a good method of getting there for anyone in the Astoria area. |

I bought the early bird with whatever the cheapest shipping was. Haven't received them yet. |
There could be a conspiracy of sending early birds last to prevent those from reselling for profit. I bought mine sometime early summer and already have mine. |

I'm fairly sure this is what happened. I got my Early Bird tonight when I got home from work and I don't know anyone that is waiting for a wristband that they purchased over the summer (and some had them 2 weeks ago). |

If water taxi tickets sell out I'll probably do the WARDS ISLAND PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE.
It says FRI / SAT / SUN its open all times.

You can always just drive...
Last year we drove in, parked right on the island, a few hundred yards from the box office. The year before, I drove into the city, parked on the East Side near where the bridge is, and cabbed it over. No biggie. |

Park on the East Side and cab it in sounds pretty good. Was it hard getting a cab out of the island?? |

They had buses lined up taking people back across the bridge after the festival ended the first year. Not sure if that is the case this year as well though. |

Their site already says that you are paying for a round trip when you go from Manhattan to RI via the MTA bus (X??). So yeah, they'll basically be free back because they won't be swiping.
If you leave about 5 minutes before the end they're won't be a line as they usually have a few buses ready to go. I've never wait any of the 4 days in the past. |
