MacArthur Airport to Manhattan Questions
How long is the drive from MacArthur Airport to Manhattan?
From Long Island MacArthur Airport in Ronkonkoma, the drive to Midtown Manhattan usually takes 1 to 1¾ hours in normal traffic. The Long Island Expressway and the Midtown Tunnel carry most of the trip, and rush hour can push the time to 2½ hours.
How much is a black car from ISP to Manhattan?
You pay a flat rate agreed at booking, and the tolls are already counted in it. It depends on the Manhattan address, the vehicle and the hour, and it stays the same if your flight is late.
Does the chauffeur track my flight into Islip?
Yes. Give us your flight number and we follow it, so the pickup shifts with the actual landing time. A delay does not add to your fare.
How long will the chauffeur wait at MacArthur Airport?
The car waits without charge for 45 minutes after a domestic landing, and for an hour after an international one. MacArthur is small, so most passengers reach the curb quickly.
Is a car better than the Long Island Rail Road from Ronkonkoma?
The train avoids Expressway traffic, but it requires a transfer to the station and a walk at the other end. A car runs door to door, handles luggage and children easily, and works for flights that land after the late trains.
Can you take me to JFK, LaGuardia or Newark instead?
Yes. Many travelers continue from Manhattan to another airport, and dispatch can quote a direct transfer from MacArthur to any New York area airport.
Can the car pick me up in Manhattan for an ISP departure?
Yes. A Manhattan-to-ISP booking is timed from your flight, with a buffer for the Midtown Tunnel and the Expressway and for check-in at a small airport.
What is the deadline to change or cancel an ISP pickup?
The car travels out from New York City, so a change needs the driving time from the city plus 4 hours. Cancellation is free until 24 hours before pickup, and hourly service on Long Island is arranged and priced by dispatch.
