Getting to and from Airports

Your CosmoCommunity 2006 registration does not include airport transfers to or from the hotel, so  you will need to make your own arrangements for your transport to and from the hotel. The tips below will help you make arrangements.

For our attendees coming to the event or training by air, John F Kennedy International (JFK) and LaGuardia (LGA) airports are located approximately one hour from the Hyatt Wind Watch hotel. JFK is the recommended airport for international visitors. Newark Liberty Airport is located approximately 1.5 hours from the hotel in New Jersey so we do not recommend traveling to Newark Airport since it is too far.  PLEASE use JFK instead of Newark.

You do not want to take a taxi cab from the airport to the Hyatt as it will be VERY expensive.

Suggested means of transport include:

• Renting a car
  You can rent a car at any of the airports (competitive rates can be found at by using Orbitz.com).
  Typical rental rates are $50 daily for a compact car.
  Driving directions are available at http://www.hyatt.com/hyatt/hotels/maps/maps_popup.jsp?hotelId=2726
   
• Limousine transport
  If you wish to book limousine service to and from the hotel and you have not already made arrangements, one suggested Limo company that CosmoCom uses is:
  
  TOWN & COUNTRY LIMOUSINE:
  +1 631-543-0161 (manned 24 hours a day)
  dmellett@sprintmail.com
   
  One-Way Rates from JFK and LGA are:
  • $ 66.96 for a "share ride" (one other passenger may ride with you);
  • $106.64 for a private car (accommodates 2-3 people);
  • $137.64 for a stretch limo (accommodates 4-6 people)

  One-Way Rates from Newark Liberty are:

  • $181.64 for a car accommodating 2-3 people
  • $223.20 for a stretch limo accommodating 4-6 people

  All prices above include gratuity, tolls and taxes
   

NOTE: for guests taking advantage of the technical training before and after the event dates, please be sure that your hotel stay adequately covers the training dates. Directions to and from the Hyatt to CosmoCom headquarters can be found here.

For domestic travelers Islip MacArthur airport (ISP) is approximately 15 minutes from the hotel. From Islip MacArthur airport, there is a complimentary hotel shuttle. A reservation should be made in advance to guarantee availability. Call the hotel Bell Captain directly at: +1 631 784 1234
