Well if travel time isn't a problem, then take the amtrak train... you can move around and its cheap... but the trip will be long, like some 7-8 hrs.... but it beats a smelly old bus. go to Amtrak.com..... you'll be able to get an estimate on it. I also forgot to mention that you can fly SouthWest from Jacksonville to Fort Lauderdale, and if you reserve the ticket in time, it might not cost too much.... as low at $49 each way. Then you can take the bus from the airport to the Tri-Rail train station and ride to Miami. Flying to Miami directly might be a little more expensive through SouthWest.

Yeah Amtrak is prolly your best Bet.... there are buses but they stop at every po-dunk city and town....

About What is the best "rent-a-car" option if i want to travel from New York to Jacksonville, FL for few days

What is the best "rent-a-car" option if i want to travel from New York to Jacksonville, FL for few days?
...prices/cars etc. Anyone? =) I'm planning a trip next summer there (I'm from Europe). I will land in NY and be there for few days, but the rest of the time I need to be in Florida. That is why I am considering of renting a car and drive "down there" and spending few days (and nights) in some other cities (also suggest where to go on the way to FL). Thanks all!

Compact unlimited miles, do not tell them you are going out of state and use your own car insurance, you dont have to purchase theirs. At least thats the law here in ga.
2 :
If you mean to leave the car in Jacksonville, call the N.Y. agencies and ask if they have a Florida car that needs to be returned.
3 :
My husband used to work as a branch rental manager in Jacksonville for Enterprise Rent a Car. He has relocated to a different part of the state now. I know that Enterprise at some locations has a set of one way cars. They have awesome service too! My husband would stay as late as he needed & always wanted to make sure the customer was completely satisfied. Enterprise also owns National & Alamo. I would suggest giving them a call & ask them your questions.
4 :
enterprise is good..
5 :
As mentioned, one of the biggest questions to ask is if there will be a drop off fee for leaving the car in another state. My daughter recently rented from enterprise and had a very good experience. http://naturesnook.blogspot.com/2008/09/its-true-you-get-what-you-pay-for.html Another option would be taking the train to FL and then renting once you get there Good places to visit if you decide to drive are Washington DC (lots to see and do there), the Harbourfront in Baltimore and, if it interests you, the National Aquarium is great, side trip to Savannah, GA
6 :
I'd agree with taking the train from NY to Jacksonville unless you really want to drive - it's relatively inexpensive and a relaxing way to travel. (However, get a roomette if you want to have a bit of privacy and sleep more comfortably.)

About how long do you think it would be travel from Jacksonville Florida to Australia

how long do you think it would be travel from Jacksonville Florida to Australia?

1 :
Depends on how you are traveling?
2 :
It will depend upon where you want to fly to in Australia. If for example you want to arrive in Sydney, then according to this link http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?tovr=-1294677295&ps3u= it would take 33hr 25mins to fly from JAX to Sydney with connecting flight. As a comparison, it takes about 13-14hrs to fly to Brisbane direct from LAX. Therefore you could select a city with direct flights to Australian cities and leave from one of those. Hope this helps.

About how much gas would i need to travel to Jacksonville, Fl from Bakersfield

how much gas would i need to travel to Jacksonville, Fl from Bakersfield?
How much would i spend on gas from bakersfield to Jacksonville florida Commuting - 10 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
It all depends on what you drive and the price of gas within that area, well hope you have a safe road trip!
2 :
obviously it depends on what you drive. In a 4 cylinder compact, probably around $60-$75. In a V-8 large truck, about $200.
3 :
3 gallons
4 :
get on www.mapquest.com Put in your start and ending location. That should give you a rough estimate of the miles you need to travel. Then take the fuel mileage your vehicle gets, and divide the total number of miles you're going to travel (there and back) by the fuel mileage of your vehicle. That'll give you the total number of gallons that you'll use. Multiply that by the cost of fuel (around $3.20 a gallon) And wallaa.
5 :
Go to Mapquest.com or maps.google.com and put int he two addresses. Get driving directions and see how many miles it says. Add 10% to that number. Now determine how many miles per gallon your vehicle gets but if you don't know you can usually estimate 21 to 22 miles per gallon and be safe unless you have a pickup truck or SUV and then use 17 mpg. Divide the total miles by either the 22 or the 17 and you should have a pretty good estimate on how many. Unless you know for sure what you get and then don't take the high figure but reduce it by 3 mpg just to be safe and divide that into the total and remember that's a one way trip. Double it to get back.
6 :
You first need to calculate how many miles you get per gallon of gas then divide that number into how many miles you want to drive.
7 :
Bakersfield, CA to Jacksonville? That depends on a lot of things: Are you driving or flying? Will you need lodging along the way if you are driving? Can you pack food and drinks for the drive? Will you need lodging once you ge to Jacksonville? What route (if driving) will you be taking? I'm guessing probably strait out I-10 would be the best since it's the fastest. I live in Jacksonville and have traveled between California and Florida a few times by car. If you need any specific info for this area like gas prices, traffic, etc. just send me a message.
8 :
It depends on the fuel economy your vehicle gets, the costs of the fuel, how many stops you're making, etc...But a trip of that distance generally takes me $250 for gas...
9 :
The distances from Bakersfield, CA to Jacksonville, Fl is about 2622 miles. Now lets assume you get 30 mpg on your car. You take 2622/30 which comes out to 87.4. The average price of gas is $3.15 per gallon so take 87.4*3.15, giving you an estimated one way cost of $275.31. You should look into flying, it might be cheaper.
10 :
It doesn't really matter just drive as fast as you can out of Bakersfield and never look back :o)
