Your ride to JFK Airport from UConn. Reliable JFK car service from UConn. Premium Black Sedan or SUV, curbside pickup for arrivals, 24/7.
There's no train in Storrs; the nearest real options are Hartford's Union Station and the Amtrak stops on the coast. From Storrs, Route 195 leads to I-84 west โ the start of the long run toward Hartford and the New York airports.
Your chauffeur starts out Route 195 to I-84 west, then takes I-95 or I-84/I-91 west and south through Connecticut, then the Whitestone or Throgs Neck and the Van Wyck. Expect about 120 mi and 2 hr 13 min โ 2 hr 33 min on a normal day; the Van Wyck Expressway is where the time goes when traffic is heavy.
JFK isn't the nearest airport to UConn โ that's HPN, about 1 hr 37 min away โ but it's often the one with the right flight. For long-haul and international flights, JFK is usually worth the extra time. Enter the address above for the fixed fare from UConn โ tolls included.
Break weeks fill up fast. If several friends from UConn are flying out of JFK 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.
Domestic flight from JFK? Get picked up at UConn about 4 hr 45 min before departure. Flying overseas? Make it about 5 hr 45 min.
Evening international departures make late afternoon the busiest time at JFK's security lines โ plan a little extra if your flight leaves between 5 and 10 PM. If your flight leaves in the late afternoon, give the Van Wyck Expressway extra room.

There's no station in town โ the nearest is Hartford Union Station on the Hartford Line, so the train trip already starts with a drive. From Hartford Union Station, ride the Hartford Line to Grand Central (changing at New Haven), then the LIRR from Grand Central Madison to Jamaica and the AirTrain to your terminal โ three legs with luggage.
Compare that with a car: one seat, your bags in the trunk, 2 hr 13 min โ 2 hr 33 min to the curb.
JFK is really several airports in one โ check which terminal your airline uses before the day, and your chauffeur drives straight to that terminal's departures curb. For arrivals your chauffeur waits at the arrivals curb of your terminal; international passengers usually need 30โ60 minutes after landing for passport control and bags, which is why we track the flight and count free waiting from the actual landing time.
Book the return to UConn at the same time; the flight is tracked and waiting time starts only when you land. JFK guide โ
