    My daughter is moving to Brooklyn from Berlin and is arriving at JFK with 4 large bags. Can anyone recommend a limo service to use?
    I'm not sure how active this thread is, but I very much appreciate the help...

    Uber XL is probably the way to go.

    Thanks for the reply, my daughter ended up using NYCity Limo, which was more expensive, but at least it was one less thing for her to worry about.

    Hope to purchase Redbulls tickets this summer. Question on sightlines. Midfield Sections 108 and 111 seem to be somewhat obstructed by the media section 109 and 110 with plexiglass. Any thoughts?

    I will be attending my first match at Red Bull Arena in May and will be driving to the match. Can anyone recommend a good place to park near the stadium? I looked at Spot Hero, but it looked like all their parking was across the river in Newark. Any suggestions? Sorry if this has already been answered.

    Way cheaper to park across in Newark and walk back over the bridge. Tons of folks do it and security is all over the place.

    --------------------
    I stay at the Hilton at the Newark Train Station(Penn Station). Walkable to stadium. I stay there and anytime I go into NYC, you can hop the dozens and dozens of trains and be at NY Penn Station in 10/15 minutes. I went to NY Yankee game that way- subway from Penn. You also have train/People mover access to Newark Airport (for flying United) or 2 train service to Philadelphia Airport(Flying American) if you are flying in. I did not have to rent a car for the RedBullArena game. I also saw the RedBulls when they were playing at old Meadowlands, that I did rent a car for and the Hilton does have parking for guests. Also depending on time of year, the Rangers and Knicks of course play at Madison Square Garden at Penn Station NY, so also only 10-15 from the Newark Station & Hotel.

    I goto NYRB a few times a year and for the last 2-3 years I've never paid for parking, although there's always been a slight risk of a ticket, that's never happened to me. Touch wood. If you're interested, PM me.

    101 primarily, with the adjoining 102 & 133. Personally I like to sit in 201, just above 101 where I still get a lot of the noise from our ultras but not necessarily feeling the pressure to sing everything (that I may or may not know the words to) and can see the game better. Oh, and it's cheaper up there too.

    Edit: Oops I somehow misread your inquiry as "home supporters section" not away! And I missed the subtle cue that you support the Sounders. My bad. See later post.

    Actually no! Somehow I totally misread your inquiry as "home" not "away". So scrap all that about 101, 201, etc.

    The away supporters are usually in or about 221 or 220. But why don't we wait for a more authoritative answer from someone else on this board because I've already failed the first time. :p

    Away section is 220. But honestly, it depends what team is visiting. Any west coast or Midwest team is really not gonna bring that many fans. Only NYC, Philadelphia, DC, and maybe NE ever bring enough fans where your experience in the away section would be worth it. All the other teams might bring from 0-20 fans.

    I head that Bello’s is the place to go pre-match. How early does it start to fill up on match day?
