This is the move. Yes, you can get to jersey on public transportation - perfectly safe - late at night, but it's a hassle. You'll enjoy life a lot more if you just try in the morning.

Agreed. Lots of shit talk but I've not a problem in years. Even with the occasional long lines at security I've walked onto my (domestic) flights within 45 minutes of arriving to the airport. Flown at least a dozen times this year.
