Transportation

There are two airports serving New Haven. The most convenient is Tweed Airport, located 4 miles from downtown. However, Tweed is only serviced by U.S. Airways, and only to and from Philadelphia where there are connecting flights. Consult current schedules.

The other airport is Bradley International Airport in Hartford. Bradley is served by all the major airlines. See flight information. Bradley is about an hour’s drive from New Haven and the "limo" service costs about $58 roundtrip. Connecticut Limo provides this transportation.

It should also be mentioned that Connecticut Limo also operates to and from Newark Airport, JFK Airport, and LaGuardia Airport. The round trip fare from New Haven to one of these three airports runs about $90. The trip from Newark is about two and half hours; from JFK the trip can be three hours, because the limo stops at La Guardia as well. (This can be a tedious trip, made all the more frustrating by the fact that the distance is only about 70 miles!).

BY TRAIN

Train service to New Haven is available via Metro-North from Grand Central Terminal in New York City, or via Amtrak from Boston or New York and points south. From New York, Amtrak uses Penn Station, NOT Grand Central. See Metro-North schedules. The fare on Metro North is about $25 round trip depending upon time of day; the trip takes about an hour and forty minutes.
