The cross town pay is a joke ... doesn’t cover the cost of the travel unless the trip you have offers the timing to take trains/busses both directions . Which most of the time it doesn’t . 5 am reports don’t have trains and busses to operate that early ... and show you on time .
Ok so then one takes an Uber / Lyft/ Cab. Uber’s are anywhere from 60ish 130 dollars . That’s one direction !!!! So what abiut the return trip back to EWR.
I don’t mind NOT making money on cross town pay , but how about NOT loosing money on the deal, which happens often . Unless you take the FA shuttle or are lucky enough to commute out of the Airport once you’re done .
Crosstown needs to cover the actual expense of travel regardless of which method you use and submit receipt, I know it would kill the local guys who eat up the crosstown pay all month.
