Uber works very well for this. Sop does CT limo.

Is money an issue?

If not Hy's Limo is the best company I have worked with. I use it for all my guests and my personal travel.

If money is SUPER not an issue (like millionaire rich), and you'd like people trained to help with transport for mental illness, there are concierge companion services company's like this one: https://oconnorpg.com/services/companion-services/

For Uber and Lyft, I was worried that the driver wouldn't want to go that far. A friend told me the Uber driver picked her up not knowing he was going all the way to JFK and didn't want to go without knowing if he had a fare to take home.

I just didn't know if it was common to use those companies for 2 hour drives to the airport. If it is, that would make me feel a lot more comfortable.

I’ve used Uber for rides to JFK, I have friends who’ve used it as well. You can schedule a ride ahead of time to make sure the driver is ok with driving that far.

My wife and I just used Uber to get down to JFK weekend before last, and used Uber to get back a couple days ago. I think the drivers appreciated the work, and we appreciated having a calm and quiet ride - win win!
