The run, priced honestly
John F. Kennedy International Airport to Darien, in Connecticut, is about 44 miles. The usual routing runs from JFK north on the Van Wyck Expressway and over the Whitestone Bridge, then east on I-95 toward Darien. The taxi meter on the same 44-mile run works out at $157.00 on the meter formula of $3.00 plus $0.70 per fifth of a mile, before tolls, surcharges, and tip, and slow-traffic time can add more. That figure is shown so you can check a quote, not as the fare you will pay: a booked car is quoted per trip in writing before travel. Neither the $70 taxi flat fare nor the $65 booked-car economy fare applies here, since both are Manhattan trips and Darien is in Connecticut.
Your options, compared
By booked car: door to door, terminal to the Darien address, with the total fixed in writing before travel and flight tracking on the pickup, the best choice with luggage or on a late arrival. By transit: AirTrain JFK to Jamaica, subway or Long Island Rail Road into Manhattan, then Metro-North New Haven Line to Darien station, roughly 2 hours 30 minutes or more in total and far cheaper for one person travelling light. By taxi: the meter figure above, plus tolls, with traffic, not distance, deciding the final total.
