Types of Newark airport transfers available

We offer a range of Newark airport transfers to match different travel needs and budgets. Here’s a closer look at each option:

Private taxis

Ideal for:

  • Families with children
  • Business travellers
  • Couples wanting comfort

This is the go-to option if you prefer direct travel without sharing with other passengers. Your driver meets you at arrivals (unless otherwise specified on your e-ticket), helps with luggage and takes you straight to your hotel, apartment or business meeting. Fixed pricing, guaranteed seating, and privacy make this a top choice for many. Vehicles typically include sedans or SUVs with comfortable interiors.

Shared shuttles

Ideal for:

  • Solo travellers
  • Budget-conscious tourists
  • Students or backpackers

Shared shuttle services are affordable and efficient. You may share the ride with a few other passengers, and the vehicle may stop at different drop-off points along the way. It’s a good option if you don’t mind a slightly longer trip in exchange for savings. Minibuses or coaches are commonly used for this service.

Luxury or VIP transfers

Ideal for:

  • Business executives
  • Couples celebrating an occasion
  • Travellers wanting premium comfort

Our luxury transfers offer high-end vehicles, experienced professional drivers and an added level of service. These rides often include extra space, climate control, bottled water and an overall smooth experience. It’s perfect if you’re arriving after a long flight and want to unwind immediately or if you're heading to an important event. Vehicles include executive sedans or black car services.

Minivans and group transfers

Ideal for:

  • Large families
  • Group tours or teams
  • Travellers with extra luggage

Minivans and minibuses are designed for groups that need space without sacrificing convenience. Whether you’re travelling with friends, on a school trip, or moving a lot of gear, these transfers ensure everyone and everything gets to the destination together.

Ride-hailing

Need to get going right away? On-demand transfers are available for passengers who prefer a flexible pickup time and immediate departure.

These are best for:

  • Last-minute planners
  • Business travellers with unpredictable schedules
  • Anyone arriving without a pre-booked ride

Ride-now services typically use local partners stationed near the terminal. Availability can vary, especially during busy travel periods, so while these options offer speed, they may be limited at peak times or subject to dynamic pricing. You can still benefit from professional, vetted drivers and a variety of vehicle types.

Available vehicles

We partner with a variety of professional providers to offer a wide selection of vehicle types:

  • Standard sedans: Best for solo travellers or couples with light luggage.
  • SUVs: Great for families or travellers needing more space.
  • Minivans: Ideal for small groups and extra luggage.
  • Executive cars: Premium comfort for business or VIP clients.
  • Minibuses: Perfect for large groups, school trips or teams.

All vehicles are regularly maintained and operated by experienced local drivers. Many include Wi-Fi and meet-and-greet options depending on the provider.
