I will be arriving by BA at Terminal B of EWR at 14:05 from India (the flight stops at Heathrow). I will then have to go to Terminal C of EWR for my United flight that leaves at 16:30 to Syracuse. I would like to know if the following itinerary could be followed:

  • Arrive at 14:05.
  • Immigration and baggage taken by 15:30 (SUPER MAX).
  • Take AirTrain from Terminal B of EWR to Terminal C of EWR (10 minutes, i.e. I'll be there by 15:45 maximum).
  • At Terminal C, check into flight to Syracuse by 16:00.
  • Flight to Syracuse leaves at 16:30.

Would I need more time at the Immigration counters or while collecting my baggage?

Finally, would I be able to reach Terminal C on time for my next flight and be able to go through Security and complete the other measures on time?

Typically, 90 minutes for immigration at EWR is quite safe. To be on the safer side, ensure that you queue up soon after you exit the aircraft. Your seat position will also effect where in the queue you end up. Try, if possible, to get a seat towards the front of the aircraft (numerically lower seat numbers). Also, at 1400 hrs not all counters will be open. This may delay immigration a bit. Of course, it also depends on whether someone ahead of you has an immigration issue and holds a counter busy.

With regard to the second part, make sure you actually can check in till 1600 for a 1630 flight.
