Newark (EWR) to Midtown: Shuttle?
 
Need advice on the best way to get from Newark to 46th St. and 5th Ave. Looks like there are 2 shuttles, Grey Line and Super Shuttle. Grey Line is much cheaper, does anyone know why? Would a cab be a better? There will be 2 of us coming in mid morning on a Sunday. Any suggestions or advice appreciated.

I believe there's a bus for about $10 - Olympic Express?? - which stops at Grand Central (42nd & Park)which is just a couple of blocks from 46th and 5th. On a Sunday morning the bus should be fine.

Yes, I know why...........you may be on the shuttle with a lot of other people and spend 1 - 1.5 hours stopping at all the other hotels! This happened to me once, now I cab it.

The Olympic Bus @ $10/trip is the best bet. DO NOT take the Super Shuttle; I did it once, and was in the van for 1hr driving uptown and downtown in Manhattan picking up passengers. I was in the van 1hr 15 mins before we left Manhattan. and it is onlu several dollars cheaper than other alternatives.
