[Connections-talk] Getting to Long Island University from Newark IntAirport, NJ?

[Maureen Mackenzie Optonline]

Hi Rajesh,

Newark Airport is actually located in the state of New Jersey.  You'll need
to hire a car service or airport transportation service to drive you to the
campus which is located in Long Island, NY.

I would not recommend you try any mass transit as it may be very confusing
and I won't even know where to start.

New Yorker's fly in and out of Newark Airport all the time, so don't be
concerned.  You can go to ground transportation at Newark and then find out
what Van services are going to New York.

I recommend you call Olympia Airport Express at 1-(212)964-6233 or
1-(908)354-3330 and ask them inf they will take you directly to the C.W.Post
Campus which is located on the Northshore of Long Island on Northern Blvd in
the town of Brookville, New York.

If they won't then ask them for advice on how you should get from Newark to
Long Island.

If all else fails, I do believe Olympia Airport Express will take you to the
Long Island Railroad at Penn Station, NY.  You could then take the Long
Island Railroad (LIRR) to the Hicksville Trainstation and then take the N20
Bus north to the campus. This is a long Trip, so please be aware.

If you're staying at the Dorm on Campus, then I recommend you take a taxi
from the trainstation.  You will find it very difficult to find BROOKVILLE
HALL (where the dorms are) on foot at night.

Let me know if this all makes sense.

Maureen

p.s. IF ANYONE ELSE IS COMING INTO NEWARK or has a better suggestion, please
share it.  THANKS!

Hi all,

I am reaching to Newark International Airport, NJ on June 6. Could any
one of you please guide me on how to get Long Island University from
this airport?
I shall appreciate the suggestions in this regard as this is my first
visit not only to NY but also to US.
