Before CO put all the express flights over in A, it was used for specific cities, such as BOS, DCA and ORD, and I could see UA doing that as well. United will have a lot of gates at the new Terminal A, but will change their usage from Express to focused domestic flights. I'm sure that United will not build a 2nd Polaris lounge, but there will be a new United Club. How many United Flights be scheduled from the new Terminal and if international would UA build a second Polaris Lounge at EWR? Is the old Terminal A being demolished or renovated? I am a bit confused: if there is not going to be a new runway, and EWR is already almost maxed-out with the number of take offs/landings how will EWR deal with the addition of all those new gates and new flights? I was just catching up on the most recent renderings of the new Terminal at EWR. I was off the grid for 18 months and missed a lot. If this has been discussed to death, feel free to delete. There have been studies about adding a fourth runway to EWR, the University of Pennsylvania includes a rendering of a new runway layout on page 29 of their excellent EWR Master Book. The Coalition, Airport City, includes the City of Newark, Port Authority, Rutgers University, NJIT, Prudential, Regional Planning Association (RPA), and the Weitzman School of Design University of Pennsylvania. It includes remaking the EWR Airtrain station on the Northeast corridor one that is open to the public, and includes the PATH extension to the rail link station. The City of Newark, in conjunction with the Port Authority and with funding from the Port Authority and Prudential have been studying totally redeveloping the area around Newark Airport to make it more part of the community. Much of the new expansion will be in areas around the former Waverly yards near the current Airtrain station. The Port Authority is undertaking a new master plan for the airport, after Terminal A opens (sometime this Fall) they are starting work on a new Terminal B, new Airtrain, and will use the new master plan to guide development for the redevelopment of rest of the airport.
