NYC yellow cabs offer a flat rate between Manhattan and JFK but are metered otherwise. Personally I just use Uber or Lyft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeBeCruisinMon Posted November 29, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted November 29, 2023 With the two young kids, not sure I can use Uber or Lyft without car seats? Or does it not matter in NYC? We dock on a Friday morning in February. Will there be extra traffic getting from port to airport? Airport would be EWR or LGA, haven’t booked it yet, checking on times. Thanks!

Thanks! I'm surprised you'd consider using car transport for children anywhere, but especially in a city, without a car seat, even if it's legal!

Passengers riding in Taxi & limousine plated for-hire vehicles (have T&LC Plates) are allowed to bring and install their own car seats and not be charged for the time to do so. In any case, Children under the age of seven are permitted to sit on an adult's lap in a T&LC Plated car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! As others have said-- children can ride on laps without the need for car seats per the law (not going to get into ethics-- its a choice). You can get an Uber with a car seat. Traffic to either LGA or EWR will be reverse of the commute at that time of day so you shouldn't have much of an issue. I wouldn't book anything before noon though just to give yourself time.
