How to get to New York
Taxi or limo service: Taxi or limo service will take you directly from Macarthur Airport to your destination, but it is costly for each one-way trip. Unlike the cheap car rentals available on Long Island, once you get to your destination you will need to find transportation. Hampton Jitney Coach: This is a cheaper alternative to the taxi or limo service, but a taxi connection is required from the terminal at Macarthur Airport to the departure point, and again from the drop-off point to your destination. This service runs several times a day. A cheap car rental is more convenient.
