Flushing to the Metropolitan Museum of Art

There are two ways to do this

Option 1

Step 1: Take the Manhattan-bound #7 train (Purple Line) from Main Street-Flushing to Queensboro Plaza.

Step 2: at Queensboro Plaza, transfer across the platform to a Manhattan-bound "N" or "W" trains (Yellow Line) to Lexington Avenue-59th Street.

Step 3: at Lexington Avenue-59th Street, transfer downstairs to the Bronx-bound #4 or 5 express trains (Green Line) to 86th Street.

Step 4: when you exit the subway at 86th Street, walk 3 blocks west along 86th Street to 5th Avenue and then two blocks south along 5th Avenue to 85th Street. If you preferred to take the bus, the M86 bus will leave at the corner of 86th Street and 5th Avenue, just 2 blocks from the Met.

Option 2

Step 1: Take the Manhattan-bound #7 train (Purple Line) from Main Street-Flushing to 74th Street-Broadway/Roosevelt Avenue-Jackson Heights.

Step 2: at 74th Street-Broadway/Roosevelt Avenue-Jackson Heights, transfer downstairs to a Manhattan-bound "E" train (Blue Line) to Queens Plaza.

Step 3: at Queens Plaza, transfer across the platform to a Manhattan-bound "R" train (Yellow Line) to Lexington Avenue-59th Street.

Step 4: at Lexington Avenue-59th Street, transfer downstairs to the Bronx-bound #4 or 5 express trains (Green Line) to 86th Street.

Step 5: when you exit the subway at 86th Street, walk 3 blocks west along 86th Street to 5th Avenue and then two blocks south along 5th Avenue to 85th Street. If you preferred to take the bus, the M86 bus will leave at the corner of 86th Street and 5th Avenue, just 2 blocks from the Met.

I hope this information is very helpful. Good luck.

There is a way to do this with only one transfer. In Flushing, board a Manhattan bound 7 train. At Grand Central, transfer to an uptown 4,5, or 6 train and get off at 86th St. At that point you'll be a short walk from the Met.

BEST WAY TO GET TO MET MUSEUM FROM FLUSHING, IS BY:
1. Get on conductor's position on car of Manhattan-bound (7) or <7> express during AM Rush Hour from Flushing-Main St to Grand Central,
2. At Grand Central, climb up the stairs toward IRT Lexington Avenue platform, where you could directly catch uptown 4/5 express to 86th St or (6) local train.
