How long does it take?

Newark Liberty is about 28 to 32 miles east of Bridgewater. In light traffic the drive is usually around 40 to 50 minutes. Weekday mornings heading east, Friday afternoons and holiday weekends can add a lot, so we plan the pickup around the time of day as well as the distance.

For a domestic flight we usually suggest a pickup about three hours before departure, and more for international flights or busy travel weeks. Send your flight time with your quote request and we will suggest a pickup time.

The route from Bridgewater

Bridgewater sits where I-287, I-78, US-22 and US-202/206 meet, which makes the airport run simple. Most trips take I-78 east toward the airport exits. When I-78 backs up, US-22 east can be the better choice for part of the way. We check traffic before we leave and pick the route on the day.

Hotels, offices and homes

We pick up anywhere in Bridgewater: homes in Martinsville and Finderne, hotels near Bridgewater Commons and the I-287 corridor, and offices along US-22 and US-202/206. For business travelers with a meeting before or after the flight, see our corporate car service.

Train or car service?

Bridgewater station is on NJ Transit's Raritan Valley Line, but there is no one-seat train ride to the airport. With luggage, an early flight or a family, a door-to-door ride is usually simpler than a transfer at Newark. The Suburban typically seats up to 6 passengers; tell us your bag count so we can confirm everything fits.

Flying home to Bridgewater

Newark is in New Jersey, so we pick up as well as drop off. We check your flight status before pickup and adjust for delays. Airport pickups include 30 minutes of complimentary wait time after landing for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights. Book the return with your departure so both rides are set.
