  • My United flight from Halifax has ch...

    My departing flight from Halifax has changed to 1/2 hour later,getting in Newark at 7:55 am at Terminal A. My connecting flight leaves Terminal C at 9:00am. Is it possible to make my flight?

     

    Since Halifax Airport has U.S. customs clearance, you save time at U.S. arrival in Newark. Simply take the Airtrain connecting all terminals inside security - you have enough time.

     

  • Dad's Travel from P.R.

    My 80 year old Dad Is coming from Puerto Rico April 25,2012 United #1162 looks like he lands in Terminal C and has 1 hour 38 minutes to get to Terminal B Alaska #11 to Seattle. Returning he has 45 minutes to get from Terminal A United #819 to Terminal C United #1071 to Aguadilla P.R. on May 6. What does he need to do?

     

    1. Your dad has to make sure at check-in in P.R. to have his bags tagged with all three airport codes. He will have to take the Airtrain from Terminal C on upper level's center, post-security, to Terminal A arriving there close to gateway A2. The A gates are divided into three gate areas: A10-18, A20-28 and A30-39. He could also take The Shuttle bus from Terminal C to Terminal A stops at gateway C1, near gate C71, and from A to C at the gateway A2, near gate A28. In any case he will have enough time for transfer. If he needs assistance, he needs to contact his airline.

    I am arriving on flight UA5152 from Halifax and departing on flight UA1040. I assume I will have to get from TA to TC. What is the best way to do this and do I have to go through security again?

     

    1. Unless Halifax has U.S. customs clearance, at EWR you need to go through passport check, retrieve checked bags, go through customs clearance and - if transferring to another flight - re-check-in bag (the tag should indicate layover and final destination Airport Codes). That takes about 35-45 mins. Look at your ticket (and on arrival at EWR at the overhead screens) for your arrivals/ departure terminal and gate. Continental & United have officially merged a week ago - Terminal C was the exclusive Continental terminal with its own customs facilities, and Terminal B is the terminal for all international flights, other than Continental. Terminal A was listedd for United, United Express & Continental Express and affiliates of Continental. (TA gates are A1-39; TB gates B1-68; TC gates C70-130.) The Airtrain serves all 3 terminals - at TA close to gateway A2, at TB close toB2; at TC on upper level's center, post-security.

     

  • Air Train vs. Bus between Terminals A+C
    Mar 17, 2012

    I have two connections to make at EWR, Terminal C to A, and then on another day C to A. There seems to be two options for moving between these terminals: 1. Air Train - this DOES require leaving security at one terminal, and re-entering through security at the next terminal. 2. Shuttle Bus - this DOES NOT require going through security again. Am I correct?

     

    You have two options to connect to another terminal: Use the Airtrain which serves all 3 terminals , or use the shuttle bus between Terminals C & A: 1. Airtrain stations are at Terminals A & B on Concourse level, post-security: At Terminal A close to gateway A2; at Terminal B close to gateway B2; at Terminal C the station is on Upper Level's center, at post-security. The AirTrain runs 24/7 between terminals, parking lots & rental car complex. 2. The Shuttle bus from Terminal C to Terminal A stops at gateway C1, near gate C71, and from A to C at the gateway A2, near gate A28.

     

  • Layover, Change Terminals, Secuity Again

    Hello: I arrive at EWR in late May on UA4416 Flight operated by EXPRESSJET AIRLINES (i.e. UNITED EXPRESS) from GSO at 11:30 AM, and depart EWR at 12:35PM for HNL on UA15. Which Terminal/Gate do I arrive and depart at, and if different terminals do I have enough time, how do I transfer between terminals, and do I need to go through security again?

     

    1. United & United Express use Terminal A which has three gate areas: area A1 with gates A10-18, A2 gates A20-28 and A3 gates A30-39. You simply walk to your connecting gate. (Your ticket should indicate gate number - if not, on arrival at EWR, look at overhead screens to find your connecting gate number.

    I am flying from AUS to PWM with a connection at EWR. I land at Terminal A and Depart at Terminal C with only 41 minutes between...will I make it and will my bags make it?

     

    1. When checking in at Austin Bergstrom Airport, ask if your airline will transfer your bags at EWR to your Maine flight at PWM - your bags need to have all 3 airport codes on their tags. (If your first airline does not transfer your bags, you need to pick them up at EWR's Terminal A exit the terminal and take the shuttle bus to Terminal C, where you have to check in your bag again and go through security check before proceeding to your gate. If your airline will forward your bags, you can take the Airtrain (close to gateway A) to Terminal C, where it stops on the upper level's center, also post-security (no need for going through security check. 41 mins would be enough if bags are being transferred.

    I arrive from SFO on domestic United terminal A and leave to Europe on international United, terminal C. How can I transfer from A to C without going through security again?

     

    At EWR you simply take the Airtrain post-security from Terminal A, Concourse level, to Terminal C, upper level, center. No need to go through security.

     

  • Layover Enough Time?

    I will be flying United from (PIT) Pittsburgh with a 37min layover at (EWR) and departing to (FLL) Ft. Lauderdale also on United. Do I have enough time to make my connection, and will I have to traverse a large section of the airport?

     

    You arrive & depart from Terminal A which has three gate areas: gate area A1 gates A10-18; gate area A2 gates A20-28; gate area A3 gates A30-39. Simply follow signs to get to your connecting gate. You have enough time.

     

    Thank you so much "Samar12"!!!! I appreciate the info!

    I am going to flight from Detroit to Paris and have a connection in Newark. I will arrive in terminal A1 and next flight is in TC. I plan to take the shuttle bus (avoiding security in TC), however since the bus leaves from A2, do I have to go through security between A1 and A2 ? thanks

     

    You arrive at EWR at Terminal A, gate A1. use the Airtrain whose station at TA is on the concouse level, post-security; it will arrive at Terminal C on the upper level's center, again at post-security. Note that Terminal C has three gate areas: gate area C1 arranged in a Y-shape with gates C70-75, C80-88 & C90-99 on each side; gate area C2 has gates C101A-115A-B (15 gates); gate area C3 has gates C12-130. Follow signs. No need to go through security again.

     

  • Airtran -pre or post security
    Mar 9, 2012

    I have been given conflicting info on the Airtran at EWR. I have been told that the entrances to the Airtrain in Terminals A,B & C are pre-security. I have also been told that the entrances are post security by the gates. Which is it? I cannot find a detailed map of the Airtran system that shows me where the exact entrances are.

     

    Airtrain stations at EWR are located at: Terminals A & B on Concourse level, post-security: At Terminal A close to gateway A2; at Terminal B close to gateway B2; at Terminal C the station is on Upper Level's center, at post-security.

     

    On continental website : http://pss.united.com/web/en-US/content/travel/airport/maps/ewr.aspx This shows that the airtrain is in the pre-security area no ? (in the legend : security clearance required) whereas the shuttle bus between TA and TC is post-security. Not easy to understand for people connecting in newark for the first time...

     

  • Between terminals?

    I will be arriving via a United flight from Indianapolis in terminal A and will be departing in terminal C to PWM.. I have only 45 minutes in between flights. Will that be enough time? Do I have to go thru security again?

     

    The Airtrain station is located close to gateway A2 and will take you to Terminal C's upper level, center, at post-security. Terminal C gates: has gate area C1 arranged in a Y-shape with gates C70-75, C80-88 & C90-99 on each side; gate area C2 has gates C101A-115A-B (15 gates); gate area C3 has gates C12-130. You have enough time and need not go through security again.

     

    Strangely enough, when I called the information line for Newark Airport, the woman I talked to said I would have to go thru security again. Wow.

    On the 21st of March I will be coming to EWR from the UK and arriving on a United flight in to Terminal B then leaving on another united flight at Terminal A towards Columbus, Ohio. I arrive at 13.05 and depart at 14.45. Will I need to go through security again, collect my baggage, change terminals and check it back in etc? Will I have enough time to do this?? Any help is appreciated, thanks!

     

    All international arrivals in the U.S. need to to through passport check, pick up bags, go through customs clearance & re-check-in their bags before proceeding to the next flight. Count on 30-45 mins for this procedure. Thereafter take the Airtrain, which is located close to gateway B2 to Terminal A where it arrives close to gateway A2. It will take only minutes. Terminal A has 3 gateways: A1 - gates A10-18; A2 - gates A20-28; A3 - gates A30-39. Your ticket should indicate your departing gate number. You have enough time for your transfer.

     

  • Do I have to re-enter security?
    Feb 16, 2012

    Hello. Outgoing, I will be arriving at Terminal C1 and connecting to C3 with a very short layover. Are these gateways connected or will I have to leave C1 and re-enter security at C3? Incoming, I will be arriving at Terminal B and connecting to Terminal C. Will I have to re-enter security at Terminal C or can the post-security shuttle bus bypass it? Thank you!

     

    1. Terminal C is Continental's exclusive terminal - it has three gate areas: Gate area C1 is arranged in a Y-shape with gates C70-75, C80-88 & C90-99 on each side; gate area C2 has gates C101A-115A-B (15 gates); gate area C3 has gates C12-130. You need to look at your ticket to e which gate you arrive/depart from (also on arrival watch the overhead screen for your connecting flight gate. Presuming you use Continental for arrivals & departures, you need not change terminals. As you state that your return is in Terminal B it must be by another airline. You need on arrival go through passport control, pick up your bags, go through customs clearance, and re-check in your bags (a 30-45 min. process) before continuing on to Terminal C, which is connected by AirTrain - just follow signs.

     

  • Can you walk from P3 to Terminal A

    Departing from Terminal A....returning on flight to Terminal C. Parking car in reserved lot in P3 just off of Terminal C. Need to get back to A for flight. Sounds like the Airtran makes you go through security which is not an option. Can you walk from this parking garage over to Terminal A?
