Blair Academy โ†’ ISP
door to door.

Blair students fly home for long weekends and breaks; we pick up on campus and keep parents informed. There's no train near Blairstown, so a car is the only practical way to an airport.

Leaving Blair Academy, the car heads onto I-80 east, about 15 minutes from campus. From there to ISP it's I-80 to the George Washington Bridge, the Cross Bronx and the Throgs Neck, then the Long Island Expressway. Expect about 115 mi and 2 hr 8 min โ€“ 2 hr 32 min on a normal day; the George Washington Bridge is where the time goes when traffic is heavy.

Islip isn't the nearest airport to Blair Academy โ€” that's HPN, about 1 hr 20 min away โ€” but it's often the one with the right flight. You get one fixed price for Blair Academy to ISP before you book, tolls included.

a student?

Break weeks fill up fast. If several friends from Blair Academy are flying out of ISP the same day, a Premium Black SUV takes up to 6 with bags. If the school changes the break dates or your flight moves, just tell us โ€” changing the pickup time is free.

Pickup time
for ISP.

ISP is small, so 75 minutes at the airport usually covers a domestic flight. From Blair Academy, book the pickup about 4 hr before departure.

Allow about 90 minutes at MacArthur โ€” and extra on summer Fridays, when the Expressway is slowest. Holiday weekends and Friday afternoons are when we add the most cushion on the Blair Academy route.

Can you get there
by train?

There's no practical train from here โ€” the nearest rail is a long drive away, so a car is the only sensible way to the airport.

Compare that with a car: one seat, your bags in the trunk, 2 hr 8 min โ€“ 2 hr 32 min to the curb. Islip's fares and lines can make the longer drive worth it โ€” and with a car service the extra distance is just more time to sit back.
