From Newark: The dispatcher for New Jersey taxis gives you a slip of paper with a flat rate ranging from $30 to $38 (toll and tip extra), depending on where you're going in Manhattan, so you'll have to be precise about your destination.
The yellow-cab fare from Manhattan to Newark is the meter amount plus $15 and tolls (about $45-$55, perhaps a few dollars more with tip).
These services are my favorite option for getting to and from Newark during peak travel times because the drivers usually take lesser-known surface streets that make the ride much quicker than if you go with a taxi or car, which will virtually always stick to the traffic-clogged main route.

 Eye On The Island: AirTrain's Audience - Mike Barry
Most Long Island Rail Road commuters are already familiar with AirTrain JFK, a light-rail system which for only $5 takes a traveler to the doorstep of all major JFK airline terminals from Jamaica, Queens, a trip which usually takes less than 15 minutes.
AirTrain JFK has only been operating for three years but I think the taxi companies have something to worry about, such as the one who charged me $90 in early December to go to Newark International Airport from western Nassau.
Moreover, I cannot imagine a Nassau parent like me taking their kids onto the AirTrain JFK, mostly because the LIRR trip to Jamaica station would be too much of a hassle, especially figuring out how to transport everyone's suitcases.

The service would be ideal if your final NYC destination is very close to the A, E, J or Z subway lines or the Long Island Rail Road and you have very little luggage.
Once there, you need to determine if you want an AirTrain headed to Howard Beach (for the A subway) or Sutphin Boulevard/Jamaica Station (for E, J, and Z subways and LIRR.) There is nothing to pay here; you just need to get on one of the trains, which arrive every few minutes.
