After 1 month in America, It was time to go back home until the next flight (2 weeks later).
I took the NJTransit train from Penn Station to the airport. It took about 30 min and cost 13$. I think that this is the best option to get to Newark Airport from Manhatten.
Waiting for the AirTrain:
I knew about this delay only when I lived the apartment:
The check-in, security and passport control took about 20 minutes. It was quick!
