Believe it or not...we've done the same from Boston! It is often cheaper and flights are direct/cheaper/better frequent flyer miles out of JFK! So we make an "adventure" out of it and go down the night before. If we are really smart...we use marriott points from my husbands business card. We have done it a couple of times now and it hasn't been that bad. The trip home is in like 3:30 hours....without traffic! Not bad! And the kids ususally sleep!
Oh....and we saved a boatload (we believe) on bringing down a polarbear cooler full of good meats and stuff. Since our kids are little, we don't go out to dinner much, as they are wiped out by then. So we brought omaha steaks and some other favorites down. Worked out GREAT!
