For corporate accounts, we can integrate with Concur and Expensify.

Q:How does your pricing compare to Uber/Lyft for EWR trips?

A: While rideshare apps show low initial estimates, they use surge pricing during peak hours (often 2-3x normal rates). Our flat-rate pricing from Manhattan to EWR is $110-135 with no surge charges, ever. You also get a professional TLC-licensed chauffeur (not a part-time driver), luxury vehicle, flight tracking, meet & greet service, and 30-60 minutes of wait time included. During rush hour or high-demand periods, we're typically 10-20% less expensive than surge-priced rideshare while offering superior service.

What Customers Say About Our EWR Car Service

Real feedback from satisfied clients who trust us for Newark Airport transportation

"I've used every rideshare service imaginable for my weekly trips to EWR from Brooklyn, and nothing compares to Detailed Drivers. The pricing is actually competitive when you factor in Uber's surge pricing during rush hour. Last Tuesday I paid $145 with Uber while my colleague paid $105 with Detailed Drivers for the same route. Plus, the driver was already waiting when I got to baggage claim - no wandering around trying to find the car."

David Kim

Tech Executive, Brooklyn

"Our law firm switched to Detailed Drivers for all EWR transfers after a string of bad experiences with other services. They've handled over 100 trips for our attorneys this year with perfect execution. The monthly billing makes expense management so much easier, and their account manager is incredibly responsive. When we have last-minute international flights, they always accommodate us."

Emily Gonzalez

Office Manager, Manhattan Law Firm

"Flying internationally from Newark with three kids under 10 is stressful enough without worrying about transportation. Detailed Drivers made it seamless - the driver had all three car seats installed correctly, helped load six suitcases, and got us from Greenwich to Terminal C in 70 minutes despite Friday afternoon traffic. The driver even recommended the best security line based on our terminal. Worth every penny."

About Newark Liberty International Airport

Newark Liberty International Airport (IATA: EWR, ICAO: KEWR) is the second-busiest airport serving the New York metropolitan area and the 15th-busiest airport in the United States. Originally opened in 1928 as Newark Metropolitan Airport, it holds the distinction of being one of the oldest continuously operating commercial airports in the nation. Located 15 miles southwest of Midtown Manhattan in Newark and Elizabeth, New Jersey, EWR serves as a major hub for United Airlines, which operates over 400 daily departures to 150+ destinations worldwide.

The airport encompasses 2,027 acres and features three passenger terminals (A, B, and C) connected by the AirTrain Newark monorail system. Terminal A, the newest terminal, opened in January 2023 as part of a $2.7 billion redevelopment project, offering 33 gates with modern amenities, improved passenger flow, and enhanced ground transportation access. Terminal C, primarily serving United Airlines, is the largest terminal with 72 gates handling both domestic and international flights. Terminal B is currently undergoing renovation as part of the Terminal One project, which will eventually replace both Terminals A and B with a unified, world-class facility.

EWR processed over 46 million passengers in 2023, making it a critical gateway for business and leisure travelers throughout the tri-state area. The airport offers non-stop service to 250+ destinations across North America, Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Major carriers operating at EWR include United Airlines (hub), Delta Air Lines, American Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, and numerous international carriers such as Air Canada, British Airways, Emirates, Lufthansa, and Virgin Atlantic.

Ground transportation access to Newark Airport includes multiple options, but professional car service remains the most reliable choice for travelers prioritizing punctuality, comfort, and convenience. The airport's location straddling Essex and Union counties in New Jersey provides relatively straightforward access via the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, and Interstate 78, though traffic congestion during peak hours can significantly impact travel times. Our drivers utilize real-time traffic monitoring and alternative routing strategies to ensure on-time arrivals regardless of traffic conditions.
