Manhattan Tolls

[newport dave]

Need to get from Brooklyn Cruise Terminal to hotel in Times Sq, then from hotel to Newark airport the next day. Had quotes for a car service for both trips, but neither include the cost of tolls. Does anyone know what the toll charges are please??

 

Many thanks

BCT to Times Sq. hotel is $8.50 cash toll. ***

 

Times Sq. to EWR via midtown's Lincoln Tunnel, to NJ Tpke (Exit 16E) to Newark Airport (Exit 14) is $2.15 cash toll.

 

Car service is entitled (per regulations) to charge for return toll from NJ to NY, above toll of $2.15 plus a one-way Tunnel toll (east-bound, NJ to NY only) of $15 cash toll ... for the airport dropoff.

 

*** It is possible that the driver, at his/her discretion, will take a non-toll crossing (Brooklyn Bridge, unlikely to use Manhattan Bridge) on an early weekend morning ... if traffic is light & flowing, to save the toll charges. Otherwise, the Hugh Carey Tunnel is a cash-less EZ-Pass toll crossing (no stopping) and generally a preferred & faster way to get into Manhattan, especially for weekday commuters.

It looks like you're from Newport, South Wales, UK. An 18-20% tip would be expected on the base rate of your trip. So the final cost would be base rate plus tolls plus tip.

Thanks, knew about expected tip and presumed it was just on base rate.
