About Newark Liberty

Newark Liberty International is one of the three major New York area airports and historically one of the most delay-prone in the country. A single crossing runway pair must handle all traffic, and Newark's airspace interlocks with JFK and LaGuardia, meaning congestion at any of the three airports affects all three. Airline scheduling has historically exceeded Newark's practical capacity, making ground delay programs a near-daily feature during peak periods.
