EWR it’s closer to Wall Street.

EWR. All kinds of options to get out of Manhattan toward that airport.

EWR, but plan how you will get to/from there in advance. Tunnel traffic may mean that crossing the Hudson via Uber takes too long. Consider taking the PATH train across the river instead, and ubering between EWR and the Grove St PATH station.

EWR I just did something similar

Thanks all!

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?
