Main Terminal / Concourses at Newark Liberty EWR Airport
Newark Liberty Airport layout, getting around, important terminal changes & Terminal details:
Newark Liberty Airport consists of three major passenger terminals – TA, TB & TC- arranged in a semi-circle. All three terminals will change their individual level designation (see "Important Terminal Changes' below) and each terminal has three gateways. Terminal A houses mainly domestic flights other than United (but including some of United Express); Terminal B houses all international flights, except United; Terminal C is exclusively for United & for some United Express flights.
If arriving at EWR by AirTrain your first terminal stop after 7 minutes will be at Terminal C, with another two minutes each to Terminals B and A in that order.
Getting around:
1. Terminal to Terminal connections: Hop on the AirTrain (serving pre-security, non-sterile areas on the Gate Level of all terminals and free within the Airport) and get off at your connecting terminal within minutes - however to get to your connecting gate you need to go through security check first.
You can also take the shuttle bus between TA & TC - at TA (near gate A28), TC (near gate C71).
The AirTrain also takes you to the rental car facilities, hotel shuttles and central parking lots P2, 3 & 4. Furthermore, The AirTrain gets you daily, 24/7, from/to and around Newark Airport, with connections to New Jersey Transit and the rail lines that run on the Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast Line, as well as to/from Manhattan and points north, or Philadelphia and points south.
2. International Arrivals: Unless you have gone through US customs clearance by participating airports, 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). To get to your connecting flight, take the Airtrain which serves all pre-security areas of all terminals.
3. Getting airport-related information: EWR has now installed a 'virtual avatar' - with the likeness of a real person.
