Thanks all. I forgot to mention that I wass indeed looking for maa-transit routes, as I wouldn't have anyone to drop me off, and not looking to pay for the cab.

I appreciate all the help. I'll most likely just walk down to Hoboken Terminal and take NJ Transit train.

Thanks again!

I can imagine traveling alone it would seem a bit much, but for a family of 4 the $25 cab is a no brainer! And usually about 15 minutes from Downtown in no traffic. Coming back we call them when we land, and they meet us, rather than paying twice as much to the thieves at the taxi stand.

I tend to agree with some posters below regarding transportation to the airport. If you can, pay the $25, especially around the holidays when there is enough chaos to be aggravated by without adding commuting.

You left out one step, how does one get to the PATH from the Heights, are you suggesting walking with your luggage?


Not everyone lives near the bus stop, you'll have to make some effort. Whether it be a cab, bus, walk, or a friend.

+1

Traveling is stressful enough without adding to it navigating PT with luggage. Get a friend to drop you off, or get a cab. The extra few bucks is well worth it imo.

If by "NJT" you mean the train that takes you to the airport, you can't catch it (directly) in Hoboken. Hoboken trains don't connect through Newark Penn Station (which is the line the airport trains take.) The only Newark stop Hoboken trains make is Broad Street. I think the only way you can get to EWR from Hoboken via train is if you switch in Secaucus.

I agree with Heights - the PATH to the bus from Newark Penn Station is straightforward and you can't beat the price. Takes me less than an hour door to door.

Earlier this year Christie did say he would be willing to put up $1 billion for an extension of the PATH straight to the airport. Don't know how that is going but I do hope it is built sometime in the near future.

That would be awesome but I don't have much faith in Christie. I am not sure about The Heights but commuting to the airport from Greenville is a nightmare. It requires a lighrail ride to the Path to the bus. It sucks.
