USA Security opened my suitcase (TSA lock), code no longer works, what should I do?

ByLittleMac1976

I returned from Miami today, and apparently my suitcase was opened. I specifically bought a suitcase with a TSA lock so the authorities could open it without destroying it. But now my code doesn't work anymore. Does anyone know how to get it back? It doesn't look broken.

That depends on where.

It can happen that you have a very good fast connection with just a few extra costs, but it can also be that you lose a lot of time and money then always get in to New York.

At the time, we had 2 Airbnbs to choose from, one in Manhattan at the metro, the other minimally cheaper outside a regio station. This would not only have been at least 2h more driving time every day, more with connections, but would have cost more by the required ticket at the end, and late in the evening it would only be very rare what was going on, so you would have to pay much more attention.

Therefore, pay attention and decide in individual cases.

We had our Airbnb in Newark New Jersey in 2017, near the Penn Station. From there we were super fast at Penn Station under Madison Square Garden in Manhattan. You always get a Uber in the USA so you don’t have to worry if you get to the dark in New Jersey by train.

In New York City itself, in addition to the “High Line” I can definitely recommend a tour by Subway (MTA), or by ferry (NYC Ferry). The Staton Island Ferry is completely free and passes the Statue of Liberty at a distance! At the Dumbo dock you are right under the Brooklyn Bridge and if you continue driving, you have good photo motifs from the East River with Empire State and UNO Building etc.

Yeah, it makes sense. Newark is a little cheaper than NYC and drive it

Metros and something like S-Bahn to the city. I wouldn’t recommend car. First, permanent stowage, and second parking fees from the moon.

Have fun in NJ / NYC

There are hostels and youth hostels (YMCA) in NYC.

You’re in the middle of Manhattan, instead of buses and trains.

The best tips are here:

Excellent location:

You will also have a good location in Astoria and Long Island City (Pepsi Sign) where you can travel by ferry to Manhattan without traffic jam and have great views on the Eastside and the great bridges. Brooklyn, Manhattan and Williamsburg Bridge.

I would not want to be part of the Bridge and Tunnel people as a tourist.

Whether you’re going from Astoria/Long Island City by ferry over the East River to Manhattan or from Jersey City/Hoboken by ferry over the Hudson does not really make any difference.

There is no ferry, there are bridges and tunnels available for the transfer. These are needle tubes.

The ferry ride is a highlight and really something very special without traffic jam for it with great views.

Yes, there is everything.
However, with differences in frequency, approached targets and costs:

NYC Ferryis an extensive waterway transport network with several stops in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens, a pair in the Bronx (Soundview and Throgs Neck) and one in Staten Island as well as Roosevelt Island, Governors Island and Rockaway Beach. You can take a boat trip on each route for 4 USD (for seniors from 65 years old and for guests with disabilities only 1.35 USD) and for children under 100 cm free. Changes are free within two hours of your first trip. A 10-drive pass costs $27.50. You can also take your bike on board at no extra cost (only the first 8-10 non-foldable bikes, otherwise you need to wait for the next ferry). The route map and schedule can be found on theWebsite of NYC Ferry.

New Yorkoperates several commuter ferry routes between points in Manhattan (along the Hudson River in West 39th Street in Midtown and Brookfield Place/Battery Park City and Pier 11, near Wall Street), as well as various points in New Jersey, as well as various port and sightseeing cruises. Prices vary according to route and range from 9 to 11.25 USD. Free shuttle buses in Midtown and downtown Manhattan as well as in New Jersey transport passengers to and from the ferry terminals.

If I have the choice, I stay as a tourist in Manhattan or I live in Brooklyn, Astoria or LIC. Just because it is more beautiful and the transit fits better.

I land in Newark and maybe I just want to visit Manhattan twice, then Jersey City or this page can be quite okay.
I personally do not like this path and find the Jersey variant cumbersomely time-consuming.

Of course drive between Jersey City/Hoboken & Manhattan ferries (https://www.nywaterway.com/JerseyCity.aspx > https://www.nywaterway.com/HobokenFerries.aspx). There are also the PATH trains.
