ElenaFlew with United AirlinesSFO-EWRJune 2025
Construction in the terminal so allow for extra time in SFO. Very easy finding luggage and getting outside at Newark. Also, this time, took the Express Bus into Manhattan - $25 is a good price, though the bus arrived 20 minutes after the scheduled time.
MaryannFlew with United AirlinesSFO-EWRMar 2025
Bring your own food with you. Airport and airline food is expensive and you WILL need something to eat on such a long flight.
