Tip of the day: Fly nonstop For our Thanksgiving trip to New York City, we bought non-stop tickets from Dallas to the Newark, New Jersey airport (EWR). Worth the extra cost to not have to deal with the hassle of transfers, possible delays, missed flights, etc. Easy transport from Newark Airport to New York City. We took the train - 25 minutes, $12.50, airport to Penn Station http://www.njtransit.com/rg/rg_servlet.srv?hdnPageAction=AirportConnectionsTo
