njgirl Posted March 15, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Will be arriving on the Summit Repositioning Cruise on Sunday, April 30 and need to get to Newark Airport. As were are 2 people, there was a shared van service that was less money that taking a taxi. Does anyone know if that still exists? Also, is there a shuttle that we can take to any of the hotels that are close to the airport? Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke to the taxi dispatcher when I sailed in February and he confirmed that they offer a shared shuttle to EWR for $20/pp. However, this is a repositioning cruise so you might want to call Bayonne City Yellow Cab 201-339-5000 to confirm that they will be doing this for the Summit. Do you want to go to a particular EWR hotel? I don't believe that any of the hotels pick up at Cape Liberty for a repo cruise, so I would want to know if the EWR shuttle will drop you at the P4 airtrain station so you can more easily transfer to the particular hotel shuttle you are looking for. What hotel are you interested in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What hotel are you interested in? Probably the Ramada on Frontage Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
138east Posted March 15, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 15, 2017 So you need to go to P4 to connect with the Ramada shuttle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njgirl Posted March 16, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted March 16, 2017 So you need to go to P4 to connect with the Ramada shuttle. Thanks. I finally got to talk to a live person a little while ago. You are correct ... for a shared van/bus it is $20pp from the cruise port to EWR and $25pp to a EWR hotel. Otherwise a cab to the hotel is $69.20 (including toll). I spoke with the dispatcher who wears a yellow coat and you can find him when exiting the cruise terminal. No advanced reservation is needed. Anyone can go up to him and he will get you what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
