How early should you leave
for Newark Airport?

The simple rule: take the longest usual drive time from your town, then add 2 hours for a domestic flight or 3 hours for an international flight. That is when your car should pick you up. The tables below do the math for every Connecticut and Westchester town we serve.

Traffic is the wild card. Weekday rush hours, Friday afternoons and holiday weekends can add 30 minutes or more on I-95, the Hutchinson River Parkway and the bridges into New Jersey. Our dispatchers know these patterns and will suggest an earlier pickup when your flight falls in a busy window.

Every Ride2Airport trip is a flat rate with tolls included — Premium Black Sedan for up to 3 travelers, Premium Black SUV for up to 6, or a Sprinter van for groups. Coming home? We track your flight and wait curbside with 1 hour of free waiting.

Rule of thumb
Be picked up: longest usual drive time + 2 hours before a domestic flight, + 3 hours before an international flight
