KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Syosset

  • Using car rentals in Syosset offers several advantages over relying solely on public transportation. A rental car allows travelers to set their schedules and itineraries according to their preferences. Car rentals in Syosset also enable travelers to access remote or less accessible areas that might not be reachable by public transit. Moreover, vehicles from Syosset car rentals offer the freedom to explore the region at one's own pace and convenience, ensuring access to the region's many attractions, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the American Museum of Natural History, and Island Rock.
  • LaGuardia Airport (LGA), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), and Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) are the three major airports serving the Syosset metropolitan area. Upon arrival at LGA, follow the shuttle pick-up signs and proceed to the consolidated shuttle bus pick-up area outside of the airport terminals. Board a rental car shuttle at the pick-up area to the rental car facility. When you arrive at JFK, take the courtesy AirTrain shuttle from the arrival terminals to Station C/Federal Circle, where the rental counters are situated. At EWR, exit the baggage claim and follow signs to board the Newark AirTrain for a ride to the rental facility. Upon arrival at the facility, proceed down the escalator to the rental counters.
  • The driving experience in Syosset features a blend of adherence to traffic rules and some distinct local characteristics. The city's roads are well-maintained to promote safety. Generally, drivers in Syosset are expected to follow the standard traffic regulations, including speed limits, stop signs, and traffic signals. However, the local culture reflects a degree of impatience and a tendency to drive assertively, which can sometimes lead to more aggressive maneuvers on the road. On the positive side, drivers in Syosset tend to prioritize safety, given the presence of schools and family-oriented neighborhoods. Therefore, there is a strong emphasis on ensuring the safety of pedestrians, cyclists, and school kids.
  • Rush hour times in Syosset occur during the weekdays, primarily in the mornings from around 7 am to 9 am and in the evenings from around 4 pm to 7 pm. During these peak hours, major roads such as the Long Island Expressway (I-495) and the Northern State Parkway often encounter heavy traffic congestion. To escape the traffic, some alternative roads to consider during rush hours include Underhill Boulevard, Cold Spring Road, and Woodbury Road. Syosset also experiences challenging driving conditions during the winter, particularly from around December to February. Snow and ice build-up on the roads can result in slippery roads, slower traffic, and the risk of accidents. During these months, it's important to exercise extra caution on the roads.
  • Book your car hire in Syosset at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
