If you've ever merged onto Route 3 East two hours before a Giants or Jets kickoff, you already know exactly how this plays out. The NJ Turnpike's Exit 16W ramp backs up to the mainline. Route 3 locks up well before the NJ-120 connector.
And 82,500 fans — the largest NFL stadium capacity in the country — all converge on the same complex at the same moment. What makes MetLife Stadium uniquely punishing isn't just the traffic. It's that no parking permits are sold at the gate on NFL game days.
Your group either has a pre-purchased pass in hand or you're redirected to the off-site lot at 20 Murray Hill Parkway and waiting for a shuttle. That's the math a MetLife Stadium charter bus or party bus rental is specifically built to skip.
On a bus, the Exit 16W crawl is somebody else's problem. Your group loads up in Newark, the pregame energy builds on board, and the bus drops everyone at Lot K near the Quest Diagnostics Performance Center — the stadium's designated charter bus drop-off, steps from the MetLife Gate — while the rest of the complex is still sorting out which permit lets them into which lot. Below, every logistical detail is drawn from MetLife Stadium's own published rules: where the bus drops off, where it parks, what tailgating allows, what the Route 3 approach actually looks like on game day, and which vehicle fits your group.

Why Rent a Charter Bus or Party Bus to MetLife Stadium?
MetLife Stadium hosts two NFL teams, stadium-scale concert tours, and international events — which means game-day transportation pressure hits nearly every weekend through fall. For a group coming in from Newark, Hoboken, Jersey City, or anywhere in North Jersey, a charter bus or party bus rental solves three problems that no other option handles cleanly: it eliminates the pre-paid parking permit scramble, it keeps your entire group in one vehicle from pickup through the post-game exit, and it hands the Route 3 headache to someone else entirely.
The per-head math is often better than it looks. Pre-purchased NFL parking passes run $25–$60 per car depending on the event and lot. The off-site Murray Hill Parkway option runs $65 and still requires a shuttle wait.
Multiply that across four or five cars for a group of 20 and you're approaching charter bus territory — with everyone separated, nobody controlling arrival time, and at least a few people who can't have a pregame drink because they drove. Newarkpartybuscompany.com connects you to a large network of bus companies serving Newark and the Meadowlands, so you can compare vehicles and pricing in under 30 seconds and find what fits your group without calling around.
One charter bus replaces four or five cars' worth of pre-paid parking permits, designated drivers, and post-game surge pricing. For groups of 15 or more, a single vehicle almost always pencils out cheaper per head than individual car parking — before you factor in the post-game rideshare wait at Lot E.
Charter Bus & Party Bus Drop-Off at MetLife Stadium
The official charter bus drop-off and pickup point at MetLife Stadium is Lot K, near the Quest Diagnostics Performance Center, per the stadium's official A-Z Guide. Lot K is accessed by exiting from the MetLife Gate — the same gate that connects to charter bus parking in the adjacent Lot L. Your bus pulls into Lot K, your group steps off, and you're walking toward the MetLife Gate entrance while everyone who drove is still looking for their lot. General vehicle drop-off for taxis, limos, and rideshares is between Lots D and E with curb access along the roadway at no charge; rideshare pickups post-game land in Lot E off West Peripheral Road, right outside the Verizon Gate.
Knowing which zone applies to your vehicle before the game means no confusion on the way out.
Charter Bus Parking at MetLife Stadium — Lot L, the Permit, and the Gate
Charter bus parking is in Lot L, per the stadium's A-Z Guide — and buses and oversized vehicles are not permitted in the enclosed parking decks at the adjacent American Dream complex. Guests who arrive by charter bus exit through the MetLife Gate or Moody's Gate, both of which open directly to the Lot L/Lot K corridor. That's the detail most groups miss when they assume the bus will just park wherever cars park — it won't, and the approach routing reflects that.
The parking cost for oversized vehicles at MetLife Stadium varies by event. The stadium has published a $150 oversized vehicle cost payable at entry for major events, while NFL game days tie bus parking to the pre-paid Gold permit system, which covers Lot L among other lots. For NFL games specifically, no parking permits are sold at the gate — all passes must be purchased in advance through Ticketmaster.
Groups without a pre-paid pass can use the off-site lot at 20 Murray Hill Parkway, East Rutherford for $65 (cash or credit accepted), which includes complimentary shuttle service to Lot G. For concerts and non-NFL events, ParkWhiz handles advance sales; oversized vehicle costs still apply. The current permit and pricing details for your specific event are on the official NFL parking page — always check it before game day, since pricing shifts by event.
No NFL parking permits are sold at the MetLife Stadium gate on game day — for cars or buses. Every vehicle needs a pre-purchased pass for on-site parking. The Lot K drop-off for charter buses is separate from the parking permit requirement, but if your bus is staging in Lot L for the duration of the game, confirm the applicable pass type when you book.
The NJ Turnpike Approach: Exit 16W and Route 3
The standard inbound route from Newark is NJ Turnpike northbound to Exit 16W, then Route 3 East toward East Rutherford and into the stadium complex. Under normal conditions that run takes about 21 minutes from downtown Newark. On game days, the Exit 16W slip road backs up onto the Turnpike mainline within two hours of kickoff, and Route 3 eastbound congestion follows within another 30 minutes — which is why the stadium opens its lots five hours before events, specifically to give early arrivals a window before the worst of it sets in.
There's no real shortcut around the Exit 16W backup on a game day — the ramp itself is the chokepoint, and the final approach roads into the complex stay congested regardless of route once traffic clears the Turnpike. On a bus, none of that is your group's problem.
MetLife Stadium Transportation: Every Option Compared
MetLife Stadium is one of the few NFL venues where public transit is genuinely competitive — the NJ Transit Meadowlands Rail Station sits steps from the entrance. Here's an honest look at how every option stacks up for groups, scored on what actually matters for getting 15 or more people there and back.
| Option | Cost shape | Group stays together? | Drop-off point | Post-game exit | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Charter bus or party bus | One flat rate, split by group | Yes — one vehicle, one arrival | Best — Lot K, MetLife Gate, steps from entry | Best — bus staged in Lot L, pre-arranged pickup | Groups of 15–56 |
| NJ Transit Meadowlands Rail | Per ticket each way | Only if booked same train | Excellent — Meadowlands Station, steps from gates | Good — load-and-go post-game, but crowds | Small groups, individuals |
| Coach USA 351 Meadowlands Express | Per ticket from Port Authority | Only if same departure | Good — Lot K drop-off near MetLife Gate | Runs ~1 hour post-game | Individual travelers from Manhattan |
| Rideshare (Uber / Lyft) | Per car + post-game surge (often 2–3×) | No — multiple cars, multiple ETAs | Fair — between Lots D and E | Worst — Lot E surge, 45–60+ min wait common | 1–4 people |
| Everyone drives & parks | Pre-bought permit per car + gas | No — caravans split, no gate sales | Varies by permit lot | Poor — 90-minute Route 3 crawl | 1–2 cars only |
For one or two people with flexible timing, the NJ Transit Meadowlands Rail is a genuinely good option — Secaucus Junction connects every major rail line, and the stadium platform is steps from the gates. But the moment your group grows past six or eight people, the group-control problem takes over: separate tickets, no guarantee of the same train, and no ability to set your own post-game departure window. A single charter bus keeps your whole group on one schedule from pickup to the Lot K door and back — and the bus waits for you in Lot L instead of running post-game trains on a crowd-dependent load-and-go basis.
NJ Transit Meadowlands Rail to MetLife Stadium
NJ Transit's Meadowlands Rail Service is the strongest public transit option in any NFL market — the Meadowlands Rail Station is literally attached to the stadium complex, per the stadium's official public transportation page. Service runs for events with anticipated attendance above 50,000. The route is your NJ Transit line → Secaucus Junction → shuttle train to Meadowlands Station, roughly 10 minutes from Secaucus.
From Newark Penn Station, that's about 10 minutes to Secaucus and another 10 to the stadium — under 25 minutes total when trains are on schedule. Details and the current event schedule live on NJ Transit's Meadowlands page.
The trade-off for groups: Meadowlands Rail doesn't run for every event (only those above the 50,000 threshold), and post-game service operates on a load-and-go basis rather than a fixed schedule — meaning you're in a platform queue with tens of thousands of other fans deciding when to leave. The Coach USA 351 Meadowlands Express bus serves the Port Authority in Manhattan, dropping at Lot K near the MetLife Gate — the same Lot K your charter bus uses — running from 2.5 hours before kickoff through about one hour post-game. It's a solid individual option from midtown, but neither transit route lets you control your group's timing or guarantee everyone travels together.
What Size Bus Does Your MetLife Stadium Group Need?
MetLife Stadium draws every group size — from a dozen coworkers catching a Jets game to 50-person fan clubs making the run from Newark on a Giants Sunday night. Newarkpartybuscompany.com connects you to a range of vehicles through a large network of bus companies serving Newark and the Meadowlands, so your group rides right-sized without paying for seats you don't fill. Here's how the vehicle lineup maps to a MetLife Stadium trip.
| Vehicle | Typical seats | Gear & luggage | Best for | Key amenities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sprinter van / 14-passenger Sprinter limo | Up to ~14 | Modest — small coolers, bags | Small VIP groups, suite holders, executive arrivals | Premium leather, USB charging, tinted privacy windows |
| Party bus (15–50 passengers) | ~15–50 | On-board, lighter load | Fan groups wanting the full game-day rolling experience | Color-changing LED lighting, Bluetooth sound system, flat-panel TVs, perimeter seating |
| 15–35 passenger minibus | ~15–35 | Overhead plus some underfloor | Mid-size groups, straightforward Newark-to-stadium run | Powerful A/C, plush reclining seats, greater maneuverability in stadium corridors |
| 40–56 passenger charter bus | Up to 56 | Excellent — deep undercarriage bays | Large fan groups, corporate outings, multi-game packages | Reclining seats, climate control, WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, undercarriage bays |
The deciding factors are headcount and tailgate gear. For fan groups who want the game-day experience to start the moment the door closes, a 15–50 passenger party bus comes with LED lighting and a sound system to keep the energy up from Newark to the MetLife Gate. For larger groups or longer hauls, a full-size charter bus carries up to 56 passengers with deep undercarriage bays — exactly the right format for grills, coolers, and folding chairs that ride in during the tailgate and come back out in Lot L. ADA-accessible vehicles are available through the network; mention it in your quote request so the right vehicle gets confirmed.
MetLife Stadium Party Bus & Charter Bus Rental Prices
Newarkpartybuscompany.com puts quotes online in under 30 seconds — you see pricing before you book, with no account required. The rate for a MetLife Stadium run moves based on the vehicle size, how many hours it's reserved for your group (including pre-game staging and post-game wait in Lot L), the event type and date, and where pickup originates. A Newark pickup runs shorter than one from Manhattan or the far suburbs, and that shows up in the mileage component of the quote.
To give you an idea of planning ranges: a 15–35 passenger minibus runs approximately $200–$250/hour on weekdays and $200–$275/hour on weekends; a 25-passenger party bus runs roughly $250–$350/hour weekdays and $275–$375/hour weekends; and a full 40–56 passenger charter bus falls in the range of $200–$350/hour. These are example ranges — your actual quote depends on your specific date, itinerary, and vehicle. Note that any oversized vehicle parking permit for Lot L is a separate, venue-side cost.

A Game-Day Scenario
To give you an idea: a 40-person fan group books a 40-passenger party bus for a Sunday Jets home game. Pickup at 10:30 AM in Newark's Ironbound neighborhood, at Lot K by noon — three hours before a 1:00 PM kickoff. The group tailgates in the Lot L area through 12:30 PM, walks through the MetLife Gate, and the bus stages in Lot L for a 5:00 PM post-game pickup.
A 6-hour weekend rental at that size lands somewhere in the range of $2,000–$3,000 — roughly $50–$75 per head for 40 people, with the parking permits, the Route 3 crawl, and the post-game Lot E surge wait all solved in one number.
Getting to MetLife Stadium from Newark: Routes & Timing
MetLife Stadium is 12 miles from downtown Newark — a drive that clocks around 21 minutes under normal conditions. On NFL game days and major concert nights, that same run stretches to 40–60 minutes or longer inbound, with a comparable crawl on Route 3 westbound after the event.
| From… | Approx. distance | Off-peak drive time | Game-day estimate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downtown Newark | ~12 miles | ~21 minutes | 40–60 minutes |
| Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) | ~14 miles | ~25 minutes | 45–65 minutes |
| Jersey City / Hoboken | ~14–16 miles | ~25–30 minutes | 45–70 minutes |
| Midtown Manhattan | ~15 miles | ~30 minutes | 60–90 minutes |
| Morristown / Morris County | ~28–32 miles | ~40–50 minutes | 70–100 minutes |
The Exit 16W ramp backs up to the Turnpike mainline within about two hours of kickoff on major event days, and Route 3 eastbound congestion follows roughly 30 minutes later — the stadium complex itself is the real bottleneck once traffic reaches the final approach roads. For the post-game exit, expect Route 3 westbound and the Turnpike in both directions to run congested for 60–90 minutes after the final whistle. Building a 30–45 minute buffer between the final whistle and bus departure is worth doing when you book.
For groups flying into Newark Liberty International Airport, about 14 miles from the stadium, a charter bus from the terminal curb is the cleanest airport-to-MetLife move. One vehicle picks your whole group up at arrivals and runs straight to Lot K — no rideshare scramble, no luggage split, no coordinating who's in which car on arrival day. The Newark Liberty airport transportation guide covers the exact ground pickup zones and coordination details.
Tailgating at MetLife Stadium: The Official Rules
MetLife Stadium actively supports tailgating — most lots allow it, the lots open five hours before events, and grills are part of the culture. But the rules are specific, and stadium tailgate patrol enforces them. Straight from the official tailgating page:
- One vehicle, one space. All tailgate gear — chairs, tables, coolers, grills — must stay within your single parking space and the area directly in front of or behind your vehicle. Saving adjacent spaces for other vehicles in your group is not allowed; if your group wants to tailgate together, arrive on the same bus and park together.
- Tent size is capped at 8′ × 8′. Vehicles parking in lined spaces must be no longer than 18 feet and no wider than 8 feet — which is why charter buses park in the designated Lot L zone rather than a standard lined space.
- Grills yes, open fires and deep fryers no. Gas and charcoal grills are permitted. Deep fryers and oil-based cooking are prohibited. Hot coals go in the designated orange disposal bins — not regular trash cans, not under vehicles, not in open lot spaces. The stadium recommends a Class 2A-10B:C fire extinguisher on hand.
- Sound maxes at 65 decibels. A New Jersey ordinance limits speakers to 65 dB, and speakers must face your vehicle rather than neighboring tailgates.
- Drive lanes and fire lanes stay clear. Blocking a lane for any reason is prohibited and can result in towing at the owner's expense, permit loss, ejection, or arrest.
For a bus group, the gear-in-the-undercarriage-bays approach is the right format — everything rides to Lot K in the luggage bays, your tailgate stays within your allotted space, and nothing is in tow. For large events where the tailgate format may be modified (some marquee events have limited tailgating rules), confirm the specific policy for your event date on the official tailgating page before the bus loads.
Leaving MetLife Stadium After the Game
The post-game exit is where MetLife Stadium earns its reputation as one of the harder NFL departures in the country. When 82,500 people head for the exits at the same moment, Route 3 westbound goes to a standstill within minutes of the final whistle. Rideshare surge pricing hits immediately — Lot E often sees wait times of 45–60 minutes or longer after major events, with surge multipliers to match.
NJ Transit's Meadowlands Rail runs post-game on a load-and-go basis, which means you're queuing for a train seat with the same crowd you just watched the game with.
With a bus, none of that is your group's problem. Your bus stages in Lot L during the game — the designated charter bus parking area — and your group agrees on a pickup window and a meeting point at the MetLife Gate or Moody's Gate before anyone heads to their seat. When you walk out, the bus is already there.
No platform queue, no surge math, no hunting for the right Lot E curb. The exit flow out of the complex is managed by NJ State Police and clears on its own timetable; a 30–45 minute buffer between the final whistle and departure is realistic and easy to build into the booking when you request your quote at 862-418-4250.
Tips for Visiting MetLife Stadium With a Group
- Pre-paid parking is non-negotiable on NFL game days. No walk-up permits are sold at the gate for Giants or Jets games — none. Get your pass before the bus loads, or use the Murray Hill Parkway off-site option ($65 with shuttle). A charter bus using the Lot K drop-off bypasses the on-site parking permit requirement entirely for the drop-off itself.
- Lots open five hours before events. That's your tailgate window. Stadium tailgate patrol enforces the one-space-per-vehicle rule and will not allow you to hold adjacent spots. Arrive on the same bus and park your group in the same tailgate footprint.
- Know your gate before the game. Charter bus passengers arrive at Lot K and exit through the MetLife Gate or Moody's Gate. Rideshare pickup post-game is at Lot E, Verizon Gate. Set this before kickoff — 82,500 people exiting simultaneously means your group needs a plan, not a phone huddle.
- Clear bags only. MetLife Stadium's bag policy requires a clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bag no larger than 12″ × 6″ × 12″, or a one-gallon clear freezer bag, plus one small non-clear clutch no larger than 4.5″ × 6.5″. Bag check is available outside each open gate — free for NFL games, $5 for non-NFL events. Full details are in the stadium A-Z Guide.
- For concerts, advance parking through ParkWhiz is the move. Concert events use ParkWhiz for advance permit sales rather than Ticketmaster. The Lot L oversized vehicle cost applies, and lots fill ahead of major multi-night events. Book the bus and the parking in the same window.
- Save the stadium contact. MetLife Stadium is at 1 MetLife Stadium Drive, East Rutherford, NJ 07073; guest services can be reached at (201) 559-1515 if anyone in your group gets separated post-game.
What's On at MetLife Stadium in 2026–2027
MetLife Stadium is one of the busiest venues in the country, and the rest of 2026 is packed. These are the events groups are booking transportation for right now:
- BTS World Tour 'ARIRANG' — August 1–2, 2026. Two consecutive nights at MetLife Stadium, with BTS THE CITY ARIRANG fan experiences running across the metro through August 3. Party bus demand for these two dates is extremely compressed — vehicles at this scale for back-to-back concert nights fill quickly, and the longer you wait, the fewer options remain. If your group is going, get a quote now.
- Ed Sheeran LOOP Tour — September 4–5, 2026. Two nights closing out MetLife's summer concert run. Route 3 westbound will be slow on both post-show evenings; build the pickup buffer in when you book the bus.
- AC/DC Power Up Tour — September 25, 2026. A major outdoor-season show before the NFL calendar takes over full-time.
- New York Giants 2026 NFL season. The Giants open at home against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football, September 13 — the highest-profile regular-season opener MetLife Stadium hosts. The full Giants home schedule runs through January, with demand for charter buses peaking around primetime and playoff-contention games.
- New York Jets 2026 NFL season. The Jets share MetLife Stadium on a separate home schedule that runs on alternating weeks from the Giants through the fall. Both teams' home slates together mean game-day transportation requests run nearly every weekend September through January.
For BTS and any multi-night concert run at MetLife, book as early as your date is confirmed — the metro-wide vehicle supply for two back-to-back stadium nights is genuinely limited. For the NFL season, a few weeks of lead time works for most regular-season games, but primetime matchups and playoff-contention weeks fill earlier. Call 862-418-4250 to check availability for your specific date.
Group Transportation to MetLife Stadium: Who's on the Bus
The Lot K drop-off and Lot L staging work for every group type at MetLife Stadium. These are the most common booking categories:
- Fan groups and tailgaters. Giants and Jets fans coming from Newark, Hoboken, Jersey City, or across North Jersey who want the pregame to start the moment the bus pulls away from the curb. A Newark sporting event party bus rental puts your whole group together from pickup to the MetLife Gate and back — no one driving, no one separated, no post-game surge.
- Corporate and suite groups. Companies moving clients from Newark or Manhattan to suite seats don't want to coordinate parking passes for a dozen cars. One charter bus or Sprinter limo delivers the full group to Lot K and stages for the return. See the Newark corporate transportation page for the full picture.
- Concert groups. A concert bus rental from Newark delivers your group to the MetLife Gate when NJ Transit's Meadowlands Rail isn't running for your specific show, or when you need door-to-door control instead of the Secaucus connection.
- Out-of-town groups flying into EWR. One bus from Newark Liberty International picks up the whole group at the arrivals level — no rideshare split, no luggage carousel chaos — and delivers them straight to Lot K. Post-game, the bus collects at Lot L and runs back to EWR or to the hotel.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where does a charter bus drop off at MetLife Stadium?
The official charter bus drop-off and pickup zone is Lot K, near the Quest Diagnostics Performance Center, accessed by exiting from the MetLife Gate, per the stadium's A-Z Guide. This is separate from the general drop-off zone between Lots D and E, which handles taxis, limos, and rideshares. From Lot K, your group walks directly to the MetLife Gate entrance.
Where do charter buses park at MetLife Stadium?
Lot L is the designated charter bus and oversized vehicle parking area, per the stadium's official A-Z Guide. Buses and oversized vehicles are not permitted in the enclosed parking decks at the adjacent American Dream complex. Guests who arrive by charter bus exit through the MetLife Gate or Moody's Gate — both connect to the Lot L/Lot K corridor.
Do I need a parking permit for charter bus parking at MetLife Stadium?
Yes. For NFL games, all on-site parking requires a pre-paid permit — none are sold at the gate on game day. For the Lot K drop-off itself, there's no separate charge; the bus pulls in, drops the group, and moves to stage.
If your bus is parking in Lot L for the duration of the event, the applicable Gold permit or oversized vehicle cost applies — confirm this when you book. The stadium has published a $150 oversized vehicle cost at entry for major non-NFL events.
How long does it take to get from Newark to MetLife Stadium?
About 12 miles via the NJ Turnpike to Exit 16W and Route 3 East — roughly 21 minutes off-peak. On NFL game days and major concert nights, plan for 40–60 minutes inbound and a similar post-game Route 3 crawl.
Can we tailgate at MetLife Stadium when arriving by charter bus?
Yes, for most events. Tailgating is permitted in MetLife Stadium parking lots; gas and charcoal grills are allowed, open fires are not; tents max out at 8′ × 8′; and the one-vehicle-one-space rule applies. For a bus group, gear rides in the undercarriage bays on the way in — which keeps the setup within the permitted tailgate footprint.
Confirm the specific policy for your event date on the official tailgating page before the bus loads.
Does NJ Transit run trains to MetLife Stadium for NFL games?
Yes. NJ Transit's Meadowlands Rail Service operates for events with anticipated attendance above 50,000, which includes NFL games. The route: your NJ Transit line → Secaucus Junction → shuttle train to Meadowlands Rail Station, steps from the stadium entrance.
From Newark Penn Station, the full trip runs about 20 minutes when trains are on schedule. Details and the current event list are on NJ Transit's Meadowlands page. Post-game trains run on a load-and-go basis rather than a fixed schedule.
What is the bag policy at MetLife Stadium?
Each person may bring one clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC bag no larger than 12″ × 6″ × 12″ (or a one-gallon clear Ziploc-style bag), plus one small non-clear clutch no larger than 4.5″ × 6.5″. Backpacks, diaper bags, camera cases, and non-clear bags exceeding clutch dimensions are prohibited. Bag check is available outside each open gate — free for NFL games, $5 for non-NFL events.
Full policy in the MetLife Stadium A-Z Guide.
How much does a bus rental to MetLife Stadium cost?
Pricing depends on vehicle size, total hours (including pre-game staging and post-game wait in Lot L), the event and date, and pickup origin. To give you a planning range: a 15–35 passenger minibus runs approximately $200–$275/hour; a 25-passenger party bus is in the $250–$375/hour range; a 40–56 passenger charter bus runs $200–$350/hour. These are example ranges — the actual quote moves with your specific itinerary.
Call 862-418-4250 or use the online tool for a quote in under 30 seconds. The Newark party bus prices page has more context.
How far in advance should we book for a BTS or major concert night?
As early as your date is confirmed. Multi-night concert events at MetLife Stadium compress the metro vehicle supply fast, and party buses for peak dates fill weeks out. For the NFL season, two to four weeks of lead time works for most regular-season games — but primetime matchups, the Giants' September 13 home opener, and any playoff run fill earlier.
Call 862-418-4250 to check what's available for your date right now.
Can the bus wait for us during the game?
Yes. The bus is reserved as a block of hours, so it drops your group at Lot K, stages in Lot L during the event, and is back at the MetLife Gate or Moody's Gate when you walk out. Set your post-game pickup window when you book — a 30–45 minute buffer after the final whistle is realistic given the NJ State Police-managed exit flow from the complex.
