Directions
Plane
Catch a flight to Newark Airport (EWR). The Marriott has a shuttle stopping at terminals A, B, and C. Check here for directions to your pickup point.
Train (Amtrak or NJTransit)
Buy a ticket to the Newark Liberty International Airport station (EWR). Your fare includes fare for the airport airtrain service, so make sure to keep your ticket when the conductor gives you a seat check, and take the ticket with you when getting off the train. Scan that same ticket at the turnstile for the airport airtrain service to terminal P4 where the Marriott shuttle will pick you up.
When leaving the airport by train, you will need your ticket to enter the turnstile after the airtrain, and again when the conductor on board requests it.
Car
Newark Airport Marriott

You can find the hotel’s official driving directions here. The signage to the airport is great, but once inside the airport campus, the signage to the hotel is not. We recommend google maps for finding the hotel.
Parking is free if you are only coming for the day. Speak to the hotel staff to get your parking validated.
Parking is $10/night as part of the hotel block. Use your room key to enter and exit the lot.
Things to do on Saturday
Explore New York City
If you come to Newark early, we recommend you explore New York City, which is a 30 minute train ride away.
Friday and Saturday Hangout
We expect guests to trickle in between Friday evening and Sunday morning depending on their schedules, convenience, and religious observance. We know that some of you will want to tour New York, and we hope you will take advantage of that opportunity. If you will be hanging out in the hotel on Friday evening or anytime after noon on Saturday, please stop by the Essex/Liberty room and say hi! Grab a snack, catch up, and play a board game! We will have Friday dinner and Saturday lunch and dinner in the Essex/Liberty room. If you would like to join us for any of those meals, please let us know.
