Air Travel

You may want to consider flying to Hartford (Bradley Airport) or Providence (T. F. Green). U. S. Airways serves Tweed-New Haven airport from Philadelphia, and Delta Airlines serves Tweed-New Haven via Cincinnati. New York area options include La Guardia, JFK and Newark airports.
Connecticut Limousine (www.ctlimo.com; 1-800-472-5466) ground transportation serves Hartford, Newark, La Guardia and JFK airports, but not Providence. Driving time from Hartford to New Haven is one hour; from Providence to New Haven is approximately 2 hours; and from Newark to New Haven can be from 2 to 3+ hours, depending on traffic. There is also an Amtrak train connection between the Newark Airport and New Haven.

Trains

Amtrak and Metro North both stop at the New Haven train station.
