COST & TICKETS

Ride AirTrain free within the airport.
All AirTrain rides within the airport are free, so if you only use AirTrain to connect between the airline terminals, parking, hotel shuttle and rental car facilities, no ticket is required. It arrives and departs every three minutes from 5 a.m. to midnight and approximately every 15 minutes thereafter until 5 a.m. and on Sundays until 7 a.m.

How to buy a ticket to or from the airport.
Buy a NJ TRANSIT® or Amtrak® ticket to or from Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station, and that ticket covers both the NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak portion of your ride as well as the AirTrain portion. You must use the ticket twice — regardless of which direction you’re traveling. You’ll need to show the ticket to the conductor on the NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak train, and you’ll need the ticket to pass through the fareline at Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station. So don’t forget to take the ticket with you.

If you already have a NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak ticket, including a commuter weekly or monthly ticket, to a destination past the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station, you may use it to get to or from the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station. However, you will also need to purchase a separate $5.50 NJ TRANSIT ticket at the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station from ticket machines located within the station.

Where to purchase NJ TRANSIT tickets:
•  NJ TRANSIT ticket machines located at the entrance to AirTrain stations in each airline terminal.
 •  NJ TRANSIT ticket machines located at the Ground Transportation Center in Terminal C.
 •  NJ TRANSIT ticket machines located at Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station.
 •  NJ TRANSIT ticket agents or ticket machines located at most NJ TRANSIT stations.

Where to purchase Amtrak tickets:
•  Amtrak QuikTrak machines or Amtrak ticket agents located at Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station.
 •  Amtrak ticket agents or QuikTrak machines located at Amtrak train stations.
 •  Amtrak tickets are also available at Amtrak.com.
