The car rental locations at EWR are at Station P3 of the AirTrain. JFK's terminal arrivals levels each have a counter or courtesy phone for communication with numerous vehicle rental providers. The airport terminals are adjacent to the LGA car rental desks and shuttles for the car rentals pick up and drop off customers at the door.

You'll find a variety of vehicles on the road, including sedans, SUVs, and occasional trucks, contributing to a diverse yet generally orderly traffic flow.
