I have a 2.5 hr drive to JFK from central Delaware and over the years have thought hard about switching to BOS and commuting from PHL (40 min drive). However, with EWR opening, I now have a 1.4 hr drive. The key to driving to JFK is to bid trips that depart/arrive outside of the rush hour period...basically the non-commutable trips. I've heard the PHL/BOS commute is reliable, and have friends who've done that for 10+ years. Good luck!
thanks! It does look like Boston is all around an easier airport to get to as it’s a major city with no other major airlines having bases there (I believe).
