Your ride to JFK Airport from Miss Porters School. Door-to-door rides from Miss Porters School to JFK in a Premium Black Sedan or SUV. One fixed price, confirmed at booking.
Farmington has no train station, so a car is the straightforward way to the airport. From Farmington, I-84 west leads to I-684 and Westchester, or east to I-91 for the route down the shoreline.
Leaving Miss Porters School, the car heads onto I-84 at Farmington. From there to JFK it's I-91 south to New Haven, I-95 or Route 15 through Fairfield County, then the Whitestone or Throgs Neck and the Van Wyck. That's about 105 mi — 1 hr 58 min at the quiet hours, 2 hr 18 min when the Van Wyck Expressway is backed up.
