Newark Liberty International Airport , first named Newark Airport and later Newark International Airport, is an international airport within the city limits of both [Newark, New Jersey and Elizabeth, New Jersey, New Jersey, United States. It is about 15 miles south west of Midtown Manhattan.

The airport is operated by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which also manages the two other major airports in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area, John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and LaGuardia Airport (LGA), in addition to two smaller airports, Teterboro Airport and the Downtown Manhattan Heliport. Newark is the fifth busiest international air gateway to the United States; JFK ranks first.{{cite web], which is the airport's largest tenant (operating all of Terminal C and part of Terminal A). FedEx Express operates one of their ten major cargo hubs at Newark.

In 2005, Newark Airport handled about 33 million passengers. Along with JFK's 41 million and LaGuardia's 26 million in that year, New York's airspace surpassed that of Chicago to become the busiest in the United States.

History : John F. Kennedy International Airport (1), LaGuardia Airport (2) and Newark Liberty (3).

Newark Airport was the first major airport in the New York area: it opened on October 1, 1928, occupying an area of New Jersey marshland filled with dredge spoil.

In 1935, Amelia Earhart dedicated the Newark Airport Administration Building, which was North America's first commercial airline terminal (Croydon Airport, south of London, was the world's first, predating Newark by 7 years). Newark was the busiest airport in the world until LaGuardia Airport opened in 1939, dividing New York's air traffic and allowing Chicago Midway International Airport to take the lead. Newark was temporarily closed to passenger traffic and taken over by the United States Army for logistics operations during World War II.

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey took over the airport in 1948 and made major investments in airport infrastructure, opening new runways and hangars and revamping the airport's terminal layout. Airline traffic resumed that year. The art deco Administration Building served as the main terminal until the opening of the North Terminal in 1953, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

In the 1970s the airport underwent a significant enlargement, including the construction of the current Terminals A, B, and C, and was renamed Newark International Airport. Terminals A and B opened in 1973, although some charter and international flights requiring customs clearance remained at the North Terminal. The main building of Terminal C was completed at the same time, but only metal framing work was done on the terminal's satellites, and it lay dormant until the mid-1980s, when for a brief time a small portion of the terminal was used for People Express international arrivals. Terminal C was fully completed and opened to the public in June, 1988.

Underutilized throughout the 1970s, Newark expanded dramatically in the 1980s. People Express struck a deal with the Port Authority to use the North Terminal as both its air terminal and corporate office in 1981 and began operations at Newark that year. It quickly rose to become one of the largest American airlines, steadily increasing Newark's traffic in the first half of the 1980s. Virgin Atlantic Airways began flights from Newark to London in 1984, challenging JFK's status as New York's international gateway (however, Virgin Atlantic now has more flights going out of JFK than out of Newark). When People Express was merged into Continental in 1987, the now-demolished North Terminal was shuttered forever. Newark, however, remained a hub for Continental, which operated out of Terminal B until the opening of Terminal C in 1988.

Today, Continental has its Global Gateway at Terminal C, having completed a major expansion project that included the construction of a new, third concourse and a new U.S. Customs and Border Protection facility. With its Newark hub, Continental is the largest provider of air service to the New York metropolitan area.

United Airlines Flight 93 pushed back from gate A17 at 8:01 am, on its way from Newark to San Francisco International Airport, on September 11, 2001. Two hours later it would crash into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, when passengers took over the plane from a team of hijackers. Based on the direction that the plane was flying at the time and information gathered afterwards, most observers believe that the hijackers intended to crash the plane into a target in Washington, D.C., such as the United States Capitol or White House. In memory of this event, the airport's name was changed from Newark International Airport to Newark Liberty International Airport. This name was chosen over the initial proposal, Liberty International Airport at Newark, and refers to the landmark Statue of Liberty, just 7 miles east of the airport. Despite the name change few locals call it by its new name. The name most often used by locals is "Newark Airport" or simply "Newark".

In 2001, Newark Liberty International Airport became the terminus of the world's longest non-stop scheduled airline route, Continental's service to Hong Kong. In 2004, Singapore Airlines broke Continental's record by starting direct 18-hour flights to Singapore from Newark. In 2005, Continental commenced flight from Newark to Beijing on June 15, 2005 and New Delhi on November 1, 2005: when these services began, Continental became for a time the only airline to serve India nonstop from the United States, and the third U.S. carrier, after United Airlines and Northwest Airlines to serve mainland China nonstop and the first to offer nonstop flights to Beijing from New York operated by a U.S. carrier. On July 16, 2007, Continental Airlines announced that it would seek government approval for nonstop flights between Newark and Shanghai in 2009. On September 11, 2007, both China Southern Airlines and Hainan Airlines announced plans to begin nonstop flights between Newark and Beijing in 2008 and 2009, respectively, using new Boeing 787-8 aircraft.

Facilities Newark Liberty International Airport covers 2,027 acres and has three runways and one helipad: Most departing traffic use Runway 4L/22R, while most arriving traffic use 04R/22L, and 11/29 is used more often when the crosswinds on the two main runways is strong enough. Newark's two parallel runways (04L/04R) have a lateral separation of only 900 feet, which is the fourth worst of major airports in the U.S., after SFO, LAX and SEA.http://www.boeing.com/commercial/caft/cwg/ads_b/Closely.pdf

Terminals and destinations and Jersey City.Newark Liberty International Airport has three passenger Airport terminals. Terminal A and Terminal B were completed in 1973 and have four levels.

Terminal C, completed in 1988, has two ticketing levels, one for international check-in and one for domestic check-in. The gates, as well as food and shopping outlets are located on a mezzanine level between the two check-in floors. From 1998-2003, Terminal C was renovated. The baggage claim area was renovated, and turned into a second departure level, splitting departures into International Floor/Domestic Floor, a third concourse was added, an international arrivals facility was added, and a 3,400-space parking garage, and new baggage processing facilities were added, including turning the former underground parking area into a new baggage claim. Parking had been prohibited underneath the terminal as a security measure after the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993.

As of 2007, Terminal B is being renovated to increase capacity for departing passengers and passenger comfort. The renovations include expanding and updating the ticketing areas, building a new departure level for domestic flights, and building a new arrivals hall. Building a Better Airport

Each terminal is subdivided into three numbered concourses: Terminal A, for instance, is divided into concourses A1, A2, and A3. Gate numbering is continuous through all the terminals.

Terminal A Terminal A is the only terminal at Newark not fitted with immigration facilities: flights arriving from other countries (except countries with United States border preclearance) cannot use Terminal A, although some departing international flights use the terminal.

Former New York City traffic reporter, Bernie Wagenblast provides the voice for the airport's phone system, radio station and curbside announcements, as well as the messages heard onboard AirTrain Newark and in its stations.

The airport has the IATA designation EWR, rather than a designation that begins with the letter 'N' because the U.S. Navy discourages the use of IATA codes that begin with the letter 'N' for United States airports, and because the obvious desginator of "NEW" is already assigned to Lakefront Airport in New Orleans, LA.
