Ron,I was once asked if I would be willing to fly from EWR to IAD to save money. The person tried to convince me that it would be easy for me to get from the Upper East Side to EWR by taxi. When that failed, they tried enticing me with the train. When I informed that person of how many transfers that required (walk to subway, 2 subway trains to Penn Station, NJT, Airtrain) and how early I would need to leave so as to make it through security with time to spare, and the fact that I had to leave from the same train station to take the train to Washington (which is what I wanted to do in the first place), I won out. The transfers are a pain, take time, and don't do much to encourage people to take the train to the airport IMO. |
