The same about 65 mi can take very different times. Here's what we usually see on the way to ISP.
ISP is small, so 75 minutes at the airport usually covers a domestic flight. From Riverside, book the pickup about 3 hr before departure.
90 minutes at the airport is usually enough at Islip; the Long Island Expressway is the variable. Flights before 8 AM are the easy case: roads are clear and the drive is closer to 1 hr 18 min.
Summer Fridays are the slowest time on the Long Island Expressway, with beach traffic heading east. If you're flying out of ISP on a Friday between Memorial Day and Labor Day, leave earlier than usual.
MacArthur has one terminal and mostly domestic flights. Your chauffeur waits right outside the terminal; with one terminal and a small curb, it's one of the easiest pickups around.
Coming home, the trip back to Riverside takes about the same time; we track your flight and the 1 hour of free waiting starts when you land. Islip guide →
