Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) has long been one of the most important hubs within the global network of legacy carrier United Airlines. The facility is a major domestic hub, and it serves as United’s principal link to the greater New York metropolitan area. Furthermore, the airport is also well-connected to the rest of United’s US-based hubs, with frequent and efficient nonstop flights multiple times per day. The airline routinely uses the facility as a hub for connecting traffic, funneling passengers from across the country through its principal East Coast hub.
