It's about 1:45-2:00 to LGA in non-rush hour traffic.

The 757/767 in EWR for the most part doesn't do any LGA flying and a lot of the trips start in the late afternoon early evening and finish before the afternoon rush hour.
Great info. Thanks!
Whats the parking/shuttle situation in EWR? How long do you plan for your total commute from the house to the briefing room?
I just realized that EWR folks have to cover LGA too. What about JFK...that too?
Can you drop reserve at United ( if so I assume there are restrictions)?

Whats this aggressive pick up I hear about? Can you pick up a trip while on reserve?
