Newark Penn is 20 minutes on PATH from World Trade and 15 minutes on a
good day from Penn Station on NJ Transit. NJT is more expensive ($4 one
way and $7.00 round trip-non-rush hours only). You can get to 33rd St.
on PATH from Newark, but you have to change trains at Journal Square,
and it's a slow ride, about 50 minutes.


JSQ to 33 is 20 minutes tops. Late-nights and weekends you detour
through Hoboken, which adds 10-15 min.


I made a trip from Newark to 33rd while the WTC station was closed,
direct with no transfer. It took 50 minutes.


So that means they would have to burn two hours a day getting to/from
the hotel.

Thats no bargain.
