Uber Drivers can take passengers from Suffolk County to Newark Liberty International Airport, but the rate is likely to be so high that it’s impractically expensive.

A ride to Newark Airport from Centereach in Suffolk County is over 60 miles. If your pickup location is more towards the East End, the distance is even more. An UberXL trip (with seating for up to 6 passengers, the best option for families with luggage) would cost more than $250 in most cases. The cost would be significantly higher if surge pricing is applied, which is likely for an airport journey that will pass through one of America’s most congested metropolitan areas.

If you live in Suffolk County and need to get to Newark Airport, driving there and parking is an option, but it’s not the most affordable.
