Looking at availability, there seems to be plenty of availability to Newark and a bit less to JFK. I plan to travel to New York a couple of days before the cruise. My question is there any advantage in flying to JFK over Newark, is it worth staying near Newark and what is it like to get into central New York by public transportation from the Newark area?

Thanks in advance
