Flat-rate pricing, coordinated hotel pickups, and terminal-specific drop-off at EWR.
Times Square looks close on a map, but getting from the Theater District to Newark Airport can go sideways fast if you don’t plan around Midtown traffic, curb restrictions, and the Hudson River crossing. The Lincoln Tunnel entrance is only five blocks west of Times Square—but the tunnel approach queue during peak hours can add 20–30 minutes to what should be a 35-minute drive.
True North VIP provides reservation-based Times Square to EWR car service for travelers who want a confirmed pickup, clear entrance instructions, and airport transfer policies you can actually reference. You reserve online, add your exact pickup entrance and cross street, and we coordinate the pickup plan so you’re not stuck in a bus lane or the wrong hotel doorway.
For airport pickup reservations (EWR → Times Square), we provide complimentary flight tracking when you share accurate flight details. And if anyone in your party is connecting via Newark Airport Station, note that weekday daytime AirTrain service is currently replaced by shuttle buses through late May 2026 as part of the AirTrain Newark Replacement Program.
For EWR, your chauffeur heads west toward the Lincoln Tunnel—not east toward the bridges. That changes where staging works best.
For EWR-bound pickups, cross streets between Eighth and Ninth Avenues (W 44th–49th) give your chauffeur the fastest path to the Lincoln Tunnel approach via Dyer Avenue. Hotels on this corridor have side-street loading zones that avoid the Broadway/7th Avenue pedestrian plazas entirely.
The Lincoln Tunnel approach funnels through Dyer Avenue (between 34th and 40th St, west of 9th Ave). From Times Square, your chauffeur uses 42nd St or 40th St cross-town to access this corridor. During peak hours, the approach queue starts on the avenues—staging on a western cross street shaves off grid time.
Most Times Square hotels have a side-street entrance or loading dock on a cross street. Your chauffeur texts when staged on your specific block—walk out the side door, not the Broadway entrance. If your hotel sits on a busy avenue, we coordinate the nearest low-traffic loading zone in advance.
Times include Midtown exit, Lincoln Tunnel crossing, NJ Turnpike, and terminal approach at Newark Liberty International.

NJ TRANSIT advisory: Beginning Thursday, January 15, 2026, from 5:00 AM to 3:00 PM on most weekdays through late May, AirTrain service is replaced by Port Authority shuttle buses at Newark Airport Station to support the AirTrain Newark Replacement Program.
The Port Authority advises travelers to plan for additional travel time during these weekday windows. AirTrain continues operating between other airport stations during the current construction phase.
Private car drop-offs and pickups at EWR are not dependent on AirTrain—your chauffeur takes you directly to your terminal curbside. However, if you’re meeting someone arriving by rail at Newark Airport Station, factor in the shuttle bus transfer time during affected weekday hours.
Getting to Newark by rail requires Penn Station, NJ Transit, and AirTrain—with 2026 construction complications. Here is how the options compare.
| Option | Time | Transfers | Luggage | Best When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NJ Transit + AirTrain | 50–75 min | 2+ | Carry-on only | Solo, budget, off-peak |
| Newark Airport Express Bus | 45–65 min | None | 1–2 bags | Budget, direct from Midtown |
| Taxi / Rideshare | 25–90 min | None | Full | Off-peak, surge tolerance |
| Pre-Booked Car Service | 25–90 min | None | Full | Luggage, families, tight windows |
NJ Transit + AirTrain requires walk to Penn Station (34th/7th). AirTrain weekday daytime service disrupted through late May 2026.
