EWR to Amtrak
« on: October 22, 2018, 01:04:30 AM »
Hi!

I'm planning to land in EWR on United#90 on a thursday at 4:55pm and will need to go through customs. There's an amtrak that leaves the airport station at either  6:27pm or 8:23pm. Am travelling with my wife and 2 year old daughter.

Is the 6:27pm train realistic or pushing it? Would rather not take the 8:23 train :)

What's your experience? Thanks for any insights!

It's tight. Where are you ultimately trying to get? If it's Philly, can you book through United directly and if you miss the connection, they rebook you?

If it's an intermediate stop along the NEC, then NJ  Transit trains work as well. They go from NYP-Trenton.
