Taxi
Taxi is a standardized option to drive from any airport. Newark Liberty International Airport is not an exclusion. There are infinity taxi services nearby that can be googled and called out within minutes. As practice tells us, you have to rely on getting a taxi from five to twenty-five minutes depending on the time of the day.
General information about taxi services at the airport
The airport authority decided to increase fees for getting access to the airport several years ago. This charge will be added to the bill automatically. They will proceed with the money to infrastructure projects and renewals. The amount of $1.25 will be added to the final price for passenger pick-ups. There are also locations in NYC where you can be extra charged during your trip.
In addition, they are going to charge from $5 to $10 for a Fuel Surcharge. We shouldn’t drive with solicitors around the airport because they can provide us with a proper level of safety.
