Your ride to Newark Airport from UConn. Reliable Newark Airport car service from UConn. Premium Black Sedan or SUV, curbside pickup for arrivals, 24/7.
Many UConn students fly from Bradley, but international and some nonstop flights mean the New York airports. Groups of UConn students heading to the same airport can share a Premium Black SUV for up to 6.
Your chauffeur starts out Route 195 to I-84 west, then takes I-84 west across Connecticut to I-684 and I-287, then the Mario Cuomo Bridge and the Garden State Parkway. Expect about 118 mi and 2 hr 12 min – 2 hr 32 min on a normal day; the Mario Cuomo Bridge is where the time goes when traffic is heavy.
Newark isn't the nearest airport to UConn — that's HPN, about 1 hr 37 min away — but it's often the one with the right flight. For long-haul and international flights, EWR is usually worth the extra time. Enter the address above for the fixed fare from UConn — tolls included.
Work back from the departure time: 4 hr 45 min for a domestic flight, 5 hr 45 min for an international one — that's the pickup time at UConn.
Newark itself moves well; it's the bridge traffic on the way that we plan the pickup around. If your flight leaves in the late afternoon, give the Mario Cuomo Bridge extra room.
Students heading home for break usually leave on the same one or two days, so pickups from UConn are tightly scheduled. Tell us the building or dorm, how many bags, and the flight number — we'll take care of the timing to EWR.
Newark has Terminals A, B and C — United, the biggest airline here, is in C.
Book the return to UConn at the same time; the flight is tracked and waiting time starts only when you land. Newark guide →

There's no station in town — the nearest is Hartford Union Station on the Hartford Line, so the train trip already starts with a drive. From Hartford Union Station, ride the Hartford Line to Grand Central (changing at New Haven), the subway across to Penn Station, NJ Transit to Newark Airport station and then the AirTrain — four legs in all.
Compare that with a car: one seat, your bags in the trunk, 2 hr 12 min – 2 hr 32 min to the curb.
