where should I fly into? I have a great fare from PDX to EWR for 210 but I'm wondering how far it would be to get to Staten Island? I know I can count on my DIS friends for the info!! I'm trying to get to NY for one last visit before hubby heads to Fort Bragg than onto Iraq.
 
Staten Island is right between Newark and JFK so you should be fine. Depending on where in Staten Island, you're no more than 30-40 minutes by car (can be less if you are going to the part of Staten Island closer to NJ).
 
Flying into Newark is the best way, IMO. Just hop onto the NJ Turnpike for one or 2 exits and take the Goethals Bridge onto Staten Island.

Flying into JFK, you would have to take the Belt Parkway to the Verrazano Bridge. No matter what time of day I travel on the Belt, it is always bumper to bumper traffic.

Hope this helped. Enjoy the time with your DH. I will keep him in my prayers for a safe return.
