Frequent Flyer Toolkit runs flat-rate, flight-tracked EWR car service to and from Newark Liberty International (EWR), United's hub and the New Jersey-side international option. A United Airlines superhub with heavy transatlantic and domestic service and no perimeter restriction, so West Coast and long-haul nonstops are plentiful. The only major airport with a one-ride rail link toward Penn Station.

The car meets you at the terminal-arrivals level; the chauffeur tracks transatlantic banks of arrivals and times the tunnel crossing, which is the real variable on a Newark run rather than the raw distance.

Getting to the city

EWR ground transportation & transit

By car: About 16 miles from Midtown via the Holland or Lincoln tunnels; 30-60 minutes by car. The chauffeur runs the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95) to the Holland or Lincoln tunnels.

Terminals: The all-new ~$2.7B Terminal A opened in 2023; Terminals B and C (United's hub, with Polaris lounges) round out the airport.

Public transit: AirTrain Newark connects to the Newark Liberty Airport rail station, where NJ Transit and Amtrak run direct to New York Penn Station in roughly 30 minutes. A $3.5B cable-driven replacement is under construction (service ~2030); during 2026 the aging monorail runs reduced hours with free shuttle buses substituting, so check live advisories.

The Port Authority reports Newark Liberty served over 48 million passengers in 2024, anchored by United Airlines' transatlantic hub operation.
