That's about 52 mi — 1 hr at the quiet hours, 1 hr 18 min when the New Jersey Turnpike is backed up.
No other airport we serve is closer to Princeton University than EWR. You get one fixed price for Princeton University to EWR before you book, tolls included.
Students heading home for break usually leave on the same one or two days, so pickups from Princeton University are tightly scheduled. Tell us the building or dorm, how many bags, and the flight number — we'll take care of the timing to EWR.

The crossing into New Jersey is the variable — the George Washington and Mario Cuomo bridges both slow at rush hour. On snowy days, holiday weekends and summer Fridays we'll suggest leaving earlier.
