Hey guys,
today i got bumped from a flight to charlotte and the last flight got canceled as well. there are no flights open tomorrow at EWR or LGA, so the best option is to go to PHL from here, how can i get to PHL-Airport from Newark ? the best,cheapest and fastest way, whatever is the best
thanks !!

Why don't you rent a car in EWR and drop it off in Phl ?

I've just checked online and budget, the cheaper so far, has a deal for 1 day at 118$ tax incl.

we arent going to rent a car because can get easily lost and stuff

5 ppl, seriously, i would have rented a car. a car with a GPS mb?

it isn't a difficult drive from Newark to Phly. and you could end up wating in phly for about 45 min to 1 hour if the connection doesn't work out just right.

Take the train link to newark train station and take an amtrak to philly and connect via SEPTA to the airport.

Straight down the Turnpike, pretty much.
You don't want them exiting in Camden by mistake.

really? i'd take turnpike to exit 7 (195) towards trenton then north on 295, which becomes 95 south just north of trenton, then just take 95 south down all the way to the airport.

295 and the Turnpike are parallel at that point, so it really just depends on traffic. Personally I'd take the Turnpike down to Exit 3, get on the Walt Whitman Bridge and take 95 to the airport.
