$16.25 EACH WAY. And parking is $5/day.
I know that the system costs a lot to keep running regularly and well, and I don't presume to know anything about NJ politics or the history thereof, but I would have thought that a public transit system should offer people some incentive to get OFF the roads, not force them back on them...
It is often cheaper to buy a ticket to the next station and the AirTrain pass in 2 transactions. NYP-EWR was $15. NYP-Elizabeth + AirTrain was $11. Similarly, on the return, EWR-NYP was $15 and EWR-NWK+on-board "step-up" fee was $11.
