Donna -- You must have been going to LaGuardia, which is $12. The bus to JFK or EWR is $15. You also could have taken the M106 from the Upper West Side or Harlem to LaGuardia -- that's just $2.25, including the transfer from the nearest subway stop on its route.
Bill -- Most of us natives call it Grand Central Station, which is its original name and what the train conductors on LIRR and Amtrak announce upon arrival. I've been known to still call certain buildings as NBC and Pan Am, despite their newer designations as GE and Met Life, respectively. And I can't think of anybody anywhere who will ever refer to the iconic NY Public Library at Fifth and 42nd as the Steven A. Schwarzman Building, which it's been renamed to honor of the millions the billionaire donated for its renovation.

Yoo hoo, Donna! Boring tour Guide here: it's Grand Central TERMINAL! The biggest in the world - and getting bigger once the LIRR extension is installed into the third level. (Penn Station's busier, though.)
Speaking of which: you could take either the E train or an LIRR train to Jamica and connect to the Airtrain there; or you could take the Rockaway bound A Train. But check with the MTA first; the E train has some quirks now; beware.
Are you thinking of the bus to the airport that's on the block south of Grand Central Station? I've taken that. I think it cost me $12 and we got caught in traffic.
