Your ride to JFK Airport from Hotchkiss School. Door-to-door rides from Hotchkiss School to JFK in a Premium Black Sedan or SUV. One fixed price, confirmed at booking.
Hotchkiss students fly home for long weekends and breaks; we pick up right on campus. The nearest train is the Harlem Line at Wassaic, New York — a drive of about half an hour before the train ride even starts.
The drive to JFK starts west to Route 22 in New York and south toward I-684; after that it's Route 22 and I-684 south through Westchester, the Hutchinson, the Whitestone Bridge and the Van Wyck. Expect about 115 mi and 2 hr 10 min – 2 hr 30 min on a normal day; the Van Wyck Expressway is where the time goes when traffic is heavy.
JFK ranks 3rd closest of the six airports from Hotchkiss School; HPN is nearest at about 1 hr 30 min. For long-haul and international flights, JFK is usually worth the extra time. You get one fixed price for Hotchkiss School to JFK before you book, tolls included.
Students heading home for break usually leave on the same one or two days, so pickups from Hotchkiss School are tightly scheduled. Tell us the building or dorm, how many bags, and the flight number — we'll take care of the timing to JFK.
From Hotchkiss School, plan the pickup 4 hr 30 min before a domestic departure and 5 hr 30 min before an international one.
Overseas flights from JFK close check-in about 60 minutes before departure, so don't trim the 3-hour cushion on an international trip. On snowy days, holiday weekends and summer Fridays we'll suggest leaving earlier.
There's no station in town — the nearest is Wassaic on the Harlem Line, so the train trip already starts with a drive. From Wassaic, ride the Harlem Line to Grand Central, then the LIRR from Grand Central Madison to Jamaica and the AirTrain to your terminal — three legs with luggage.
Compare that with a car: one seat, your bags in the trunk, 2 hr 10 min – 2 hr 30 min to the curb.
