Travel By Plane

When booking your ticket, you have the option of flying into New York’s Westchester (HPN), LaGuardia (LGA) or Kennedy (JFK) airports.

We provide transportation to and from Westchester Airport only!

Scheduling Your Flight:

Schedule your flight to arrive in New York any-time between 9:00 am and 5:00 pm on the Sunday before the retreat. Special permission is required to arrive on Monday as the Retreat begins at 9:00 am. No late flight arrivals, please! (You may need to get a dispensation from your priest if this will cause you to miss Sunday Mass.) When booking your return flight, please be advised that the Retreat is not over until 10:30am Saturday. Leave enough time to travel from the Retreat House to the airport.

Transportation To/From Airports:

Westchester (White Plains): This is the closest airport to our Retreat House, and is approximately 45 minutes away. One of our drivers will pick you up at the Baggage Claim door.  Upon your arrival please call the Retreat House to confirm that you have arrived and we will inform our driver. 

LaGuardia and Kennedy: The Retreat House is not responsible for transportation from Kennedy or LaGuardia. You may take a Cab or Uber (quite pricey), or take a shuttle to Grand Central Station where you can board the North Harlem Train, which stops at Purdy’s station where we will have a driver pick you up. 

To use the Train: (We would come and pick you up) take the NYCAirporter (shuttle) to Grand Central Station and from there take the Metro North (Harlem Line) Train and get off at Purdy’s Station. Call us from Grand Central Station with your arrival time at Purdy’s train station, and we will pick you up. Check their websites for schedules and current pricing. Click here for the Shuttle.
