Arrivals at Newark Liberty International Airport

Newark Airport arrivals: how to read the board

The arrivals board above lists the flights landing at Newark Liberty International today, with the scheduled time, the estimated or actual landing time and the status of each flight. It updates continuously. Newark is a hub of United Airlines and, with JFK and LaGuardia, one of the three New York airports; a large share of its traffic is transcontinental and transatlantic.

Check the terminal before you head out: United uses Terminals A and C, most other domestic airlines the new Terminal A, and international arrivals come into Terminal B and C. Terminal curbsides are for active pick-ups only; if your passenger is not outside with their bags, wait in the free Cell Phone Lot near the airport entrance, less than five minutes from every terminal. Allow an hour between landing and the curb for international flights. The AirTrain links Terminals B and C with the Airport Train Station for NJ Transit and Amtrak (about 30 minutes to Midtown Manhattan); from Terminal A the AirTrain station is a shuttle ride or a 15-minute walk. Taxis queue outside each arrivals area with a dispatcher.
