New Canaan to Newark
what to expect.

The Glass House and the town's mid-century modern homes bring visitors to New Canaan; we also pick up guests staying in town. New Canaan families fly out often for school breaks and ski trips, so Presidents' Day week and Christmas fill up early.

The drive to EWR starts down Route 123 or Route 106 to the Merritt Parkway; after that it's I-684 or the Merritt to I-287, over the Mario Cuomo Bridge and down the Garden State Parkway — or the George Washington Bridge when it's clearer. Expect about 48 mi and 1 hr – 1 hr 20 min on a normal day; the George Washington Bridge is where the time goes when traffic is heavy.

From New Canaan, HPN is the quickest airport (about 30 min) and EWR is the 3rd closest. Overseas flights are the usual reason to choose EWR. Sedan $283.28; SUV $339.22, all-inclusive. Tolls are in the price, and the price doesn't move with traffic.

When to leave New Canaan
for Newark.

From New Canaan, plan the pickup 3 hr 30 min before a domestic departure and 4 hr 30 min before an international one.

Getting across the Hudson matters more than the airport: we time the pickup around the bridge your chauffeur will use. If your flight leaves in the late afternoon, give the George Washington Bridge extra room.

Train, bus
or car?

Take the New Canaan Branch from New Canaan to Grand Central (changing at Stamford), the subway across to Penn Station, NJ Transit to Newark Airport station and then the AirTrain — four legs in all.

The car takes 1 hr – 1 hr 20 min and starts at your front door. Bridge and Turnpike tolls into New Jersey are already included in the price, so there's nothing extra to pay on the way.

Landing at EWR?
Here's how pickup works.

United flies mostly from Terminal C; Terminal A is the newest; international flights use B and C. Your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals level of your terminal. If you're coming off an international flight, allow for customs — the flight is tracked, so the car is there when you walk out.

For the return, your chauffeur follows the flight, so a delay doesn't cost you anything — the free hour of waiting starts at landing. Newark guide →

When to
allow extra time.

Late December is the busiest stretch for international departures from EWR, and the airport roads are at their worst on the evenings before the holidays. Book the New Canaan pickup early, and add 30 minutes to the usual cushion that week.

$283.28 for a Premium Black Sedan or $339.22 for a Premium Black SUV, one way, tolls, taxes and gratuity included. You see it before you book.
Are the New Jersey bridge and Turnpike tolls included?
Yes. The fixed price includes the tolls on the way to Newark — the George Washington or Mario Cuomo Bridge and the Turnpike or Garden State Parkway.
What car should I book for EWR with a lot of bags?
Two people with two big suitcases fit a sedan. A family of four flying out of EWR, or anyone with golf clubs or skis, should book the SUV.
How long is the drive from New Canaan to EWR?

Yes, around the clock. A 6 AM flight from EWR usually means a pickup in the 3 o'clock hour — and empty roads.
Should I fly from EWR or HPN?
From New Canaan, HPN is about 30 min away and EWR about 1 hr 20 min. EWR has far more international and long-haul flights; the right choice usually comes down to the flight, not the drive.
Can the driver find a gated property or long driveway?
Yes. Long driveways and gates are normal in New Canaan; leave a note with the code or the entrance and the car will be at the door.
