Newark to
the Hamptons.
The hardest way to reach the East End — and sometimes the only one.
- Longest of the Three
- Flights Watched
- Timing Planned Properly
Newark to the Hamptons Car Service
The whole city and the whole island, in one drive.
Manhattan Black Car Service provides private car service from Newark Liberty International Airport directly to the Hamptons and Montauk — Southampton, Bridgehampton, East Hampton, Sag Harbor, Amagansett and the East End villages — and back to Newark for the return.
This is the longest of the three airport runs to the East End by a wide margin. Newark sits in New Jersey, so the journey crosses into New York, through or around the city, and then the full length of Long Island. We will drive it, and we will also tell you when a different airport would serve you better.
Working Here
Three things about this route.
Two obstacles, not one
The crossing, then the island.
From Newark you cross into New York before the Long Island stretch even begins. That is the difference between this route and the JFK one.
It is often not a choice
Which is why the page exists.
Transcontinental and international schedules put a lot of East End travellers into Newark. When that is the flight you have, this is the drive.
Timing decides everything here
More than on any other route.
A Friday evening arrival at Newark heading east is the hardest version of this journey. Departure and routing are planned around the hour rather than a standard allowance.
How People Book
Four things this booking includes.
Flight watched from departure
So a delay moves the pickup rather than costing you the car.
Wait from the gate
45 minutes domestic, 60 international, from when the aircraft reaches the gate.
The crossing chosen on the day
Not booked weeks ahead. Tolls are already in the rate.
The return leg
Back to Newark, planned backwards from the flight — and Sunday evenings west are the hard direction.
Around Here
Where on the East End.
All in both directions, direct from the terminal.
Hotels & resorts
Gurney’s Montauk and Gurney’s Star Island, Topping Rose House in Bridgehampton, The Maidstone and EHP Resort in East Hampton, The American Hotel in Sag Harbor, Baker House 1650, the Southampton Inn, Marram and The Surf Lodge in Montauk, and the private houses and rentals across the East End.
Southampton & Water Mill
The first of the villages heading east, and the shortest of these runs.
Bridgehampton & Sagaponack
The middle stretch, and the busiest on a summer weekend.
East Hampton & Amagansett
Further east, and a long day from Newark by any measure.
Sag Harbor
Off the main road, with the drop point agreed in advance.
Montauk
The furthest point from Newark of anywhere we drive on Long Island.
Choosing a Vehicle
A long drive deserves the room.
Newark carries transcontinental and international traffic, which means checked luggage and a journey long enough for space to matter.

Questions
Newark to the Hamptons, answered.
Is Newark a sensible airport for the Hamptons?
It is the longest of the three by a wide margin, because you cross into New York before the Long Island stretch begins. Where the flight schedule allows, JFK, Islip or Republic are all better landings.
Why would anyone fly into Newark for the East End?
Because of the flight, usually. Transcontinental and international schedules put a lot of East End travellers into Newark, and when that is the flight you have, this is the drive.
How long does it take?
Longer than any other airport run to the East End, and heavily dependent on the hour and the day. It is quoted rather than estimated.
Are the tolls included?
Yes, along with route planning and gratuity, in the rate you were quoted — including the crossing out of New Jersey.
What is the worst version of this trip?
A Friday evening arrival heading east. Departure and routing are planned around that rather than a fixed allowance.
Which vehicle should I book?
An SUV, almost always. Newark carries long-haul traffic, which means checked bags, and the journey is long enough that space matters.
Can you take us back to Newark at the end?
Yes, planned backwards from the flight. Sunday evenings west are the hard direction on this route.
Would you recommend a different airport?
If the schedule still allows it, yes — and we will say so. Republic and Islip are dramatically closer, and JFK is the best of the three majors.
