Your ride to Newark Airport from Sacred Heart University. Door-to-door rides from Sacred Heart University to Newark Airport in a Premium Black Sedan or SUV. One fixed price, confirmed at booking.
Sacred Heart University's main campus is on Park Avenue in Fairfield, near the Bridgeport and Trumbull lines. Sacred Heart's main campus is on Park Avenue, right by the Merritt Parkway and Route 8 — one of the quickest campus starts in the area.
The drive to EWR starts onto the Merritt Parkway or Route 8 close to campus; after that it's either I-95 to the George Washington Bridge and down the New Jersey Turnpike, or I-287 over the Mario Cuomo Bridge and down the Garden State Parkway — your chauffeur picks whichever is moving. It's about 62 mi. With light traffic you're there in about 1 hr 15 min; on a busy day plan on 1 hr 35 min, mostly because of the George Washington Bridge.
Newark isn't the nearest airport to Sacred Heart University — that's HPN, about 52 min away — but it's often the one with the right flight. Most people pick EWR for nonstop and international routes. You'll see the fixed fare before you book — in a sedan or an SUV, tolls included.
Work back from the departure time: 3 hr 45 min for a domestic flight, 4 hr 45 min for an international one — that's the pickup time at Sacred Heart University.
Getting across the Hudson matters more than the airport: we time the pickup around the bridge your chauffeur will use. On snowy days, holiday weekends and summer Fridays we'll suggest leaving earlier.
Students heading home for break usually leave on the same one or two days, so pickups from Sacred Heart 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.
Newark has Terminals A, B and C — United, the biggest airline here, is in C. Your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals level of your terminal. If you're coming off an international flight, allow for customs — the flight is tracked, so the car is there when you walk out.
For the return, your chauffeur follows the flight, so a delay doesn't cost you anything — the free hour of waiting starts at landing. Newark guide →
