All AirTrain rides within the airport are free, so if you only use AirTrain to connect between the airline terminals, parking, hotel shuttle and rental car facilities, no ticket is required.

How to buy a ticket?
Buy a NJ TRANSIT® or Amtrak® ticket to or from Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station, and that ticket covers both the NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak portion of your ride as well as the AirTrain portion. You must use the ticket twice -- regardless of which direction you're traveling. You'll need to show the ticket to the conductor on the NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak train, and you'll need the ticket to pass through the fareline at Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station. So don't forget to take the ticket with you.

If you already have a NJ TRANSIT or Amtrak ticket, including a commuter weekly or monthly ticket, to a destination past the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station, you may use it to get to or from the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station. However, you will also need to purchase a separate $5.50 NJ TRANSIT ticket at the Newark Liberty International Airport Train Station from ticket machines located within the station.
