Airport routes from Southampton
Southampton to JFK International Airport
80 miles via Sunrise Highway (NY-27) to Southern State Parkway to Belt Parkway. Off-peak drive time is 1 hour 40 minutes. Friday summer departures add 30-50 minutes due to westbound congestion on NY-27 between Water Mill and the Shinnecock Canal. Your chauffeur monitors traffic in real time and adjusts the route — options include Northern State Parkway or Long Island Expressway depending on conditions.
Southampton to LaGuardia Airport (LGA)
85 miles via Long Island Expressway (I-495) or Northern State Parkway to Grand Central Parkway. Off-peak: 1 hour 45 minutes. Rush hour adds 45-60 minutes. LGA is undergoing a $8 billion terminal renovation — your chauffeur handles the construction-zone routing so you don't have to navigate temporary pickup locations.
Southampton to MacArthur Airport (ISP)
40 miles via Sunrise Highway (NY-27) west to Islip. The fastest airport option from Southampton at 40-55 minutes. Long Island MacArthur Airport serves Southwest, Breeze, and Frontier airlines with direct flights to major hubs. ISP is the best option for Southampton travelers who want to minimize ground time.
Southampton to Newark Liberty (EWR)
100 miles via Southern State Parkway to Belt Parkway to Goethals Bridge or Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge. Off-peak: 2 hours. Rush hour can reach 3 hours. EWR is the farthest option but serves United's hub with extensive international routes. Best for travelers connecting to European or Asian destinations.
Southampton airport transfer vs Uber and Lyft
Rideshare availability in the Hamptons is unreliable. Uber and Lyft drivers are scarce east of Riverhead, and surge pricing on summer weekends makes them more expensive than professional car service.
