Here's the map quest route below all the way to Wellesley. The route below is 3hr 32minutes.ģ) Merge onto Saw Mill River Pkwy N via the exit on the left.Ĥ) Merge onto Cross County Pkwy E via EXIT 4 toward Hutchinson River Pkwy.ĥ) Hutchinson River Pkwy northbound all the way to CTĦ) At CT border, stay to right to merge into Merritt Parkway I do this also when traveling through Los Angeles to avoid major delays. Always check SigAlert, and print out an actual map of your route and alternate route using a highlighter before venturing out. Your GPS will immediately send you over on I-95, and this can be slow. If not, I used to drive around Manhattan a lot, and lived north of NYC in Westchester County for while too. You may already be familiar with getting out of Manhattan by car. Neighborhood car rentals are always better deals I have found. I see no discounts associated with using the airport car rentals, either for picking up or renting. I search for discount codes, or use before buying anything. Make sure to offer your AAA discount and look for any other discounts. Sure this is a bit pricey, but if worth your time to get to a destination fast, then go for it. (why do you want to rent car airport exactly - why go to the trouble of getting out to the airport?)Įarly Sunday morning drive should be easy leaving Manhattan (no better time unless there's a marathon), but Avis doesn't allow for less than a day so had to put in 18th & return 19th. Most bargains require at least 2 days.ĭepart: 10028 (upper east side) - I picked E.90th location, although another location is on E. In fact Avis makes you plug in the next day, not allowing a quote for less than 24hours. Still one day rentals are always at a premium. That usually runs more, unless can find an offer when cars need to be transferred to another locations. I re-read your post question, and realized you are looking for a 1-way trip, dropping off in Boston, no round trip. Phone Number: 20 Hours of Operation: Sun 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM That's what I would do if heading up north of NYC to Boston area.
The hours at Avis are limited, closing at 4pm on Sat & Sun, so need to plan around that though - 9pm weekdays. Takes an hour on the train to get to Stamford. $13.78 fare for Metronorth train during peak times, $10.45 off-peak, but takes a few minutes longer. CT has much better deals than NY in general, because of lower taxes etc. I also used the subway up the Bronx sometimes for Enterprise Car Rental, but wouldn't recommend that. A full-size Ford Fusion is currently about $50 day (that includes taxes) from Avis - weekend rate. Right at the station is Avis, Budget & Hertz. So I would just take the MetroNorth from Grand Central Station up to Stamford, CT. Prefer the boutique small rental agencies much better, but they cost too much in the city. I never would rent in the city, or go the trouble of dealing with an airport. I used to rent cars a lot when living in Manhattan- mainly for weekend getaways. There is no additional drop-off fee, as long as I leave it at Logan that night. Picking up on a weekend in Manhattan more than doubles the rate.
BEST HERTZ AIRPORT LOCATION PLUS
The train is running at over $100 for the two of us, plus we'd add at least two hours of travel time and additional fares to/from Wellesley.Ī couple points > Yes, the airports are the only places I can get this cheaper rate. (I can rent for under $100 for the day, and it would save a lot of time, and maybe some money, too, to have the rental). This might seem an odd choice, but based on preference to be able to drive directly to Wellesley - rather than traveling to Boston South Station by train, then wait for connection to Wellesley, pay separately for that, etc. 18, - I'm actually considering getting to one of the airports (JFK or Laguardia?) to rent a car, then driving to Wellesley - before dropping car at Logan that same night.įirst, am I insane? Second, if not, which is the easier airport to rent from (or cost of tolls/getting out of city)? After researching train/bus times - and our need to get to Wellesley asap on Saturday, Oct. We are staying with a relative on upper east side. I'm going to be in town with a teen for a NYC college trip.
I'm wondering if which NYC airport is best to rent from for a drive to Boston?
