Group Travel Tips for Newark Airport

When flying into Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR), you want to minimize your travel hassles—especially if you’re traveling with a large group. At Value Van & Car Rental, we know group travel, and we want to offer your crew a few tips for making the most of your Newark Airport experience.

1. Minimize luggage.

Many people struggle to pack light. However, getting a group through an airport while hauling loads of luggage can be a huge hassle. To avoid the struggle, encourage the members of your group to pack with a minimalist mindset. 

2. Know before you go.

The Newark Liberty International Airport does a good job of outlining its facilities and on-site amenities. We recommend that you as the group leader get familiar with the airport in advance. You may even want to designate a specific meet-up place (both pre-security and post-security) in case anyone in your group happens to wander off. Get the lay of the land so you don't feel out of sorts once you arrive, and you can then confidently lead your group through the airport.

3. Choose a local van rental company.

You can find a lot of larger chain rental companies at the airport. However, if you want the best customer service Newark has to offer, then choose a local company known for its customer service and reliable, affordable rentals. Choose Value Van. We can help you navigate the airport, get a good rental deal, and offer you speedy service.

Your best bet for large-group travel is a passenger van rental. We have both 12-passenger and 15-passenger models as well as Sprinter vans. Take into account how many people you have in your group, your rental budget, and storage needs, and then choose the van that best suits your group.

If you need help deciding on the right rental, contact Value Van at (908) 851-9595. Our staff can walk you through your options and even help you make a reservation.
