Traveller Comments....

"my wife started to get bored after a while and amused herself by waving at the arrivals" (gary taylor)

"The seats aren't that comfortable, but a staff member came around handing out blankets and pillows to anyone who wanted them." (?)

"There are a several padded chairs at each end of the lower level to sleep in solitude." (Doug Sumners)

"You know those indoor cars that they use to move luggage and the sort? Well, we got all chummy with the staff, and they gave us a free tour of the indoor of the airport....on those swank-ass ATV's." (Lio Greenberg)

I arrived at Newark from Central America at 9:30pm and my connecting flight to Canada wasnt til 8:30am the next morning.Totally broke and couldnt afford Train or Hotel so decided to spend night in airport.Overall it was decent.Stayed by the Check In counters On some empty restaurant style booth chairs with the Table attached.While they werent the most comfortable I was able to rest for a few hours Un bothered by anyone.Every 5-7 minutes a security announcement would come on but it wasnt terribly loud.The airport was cold and the gate area didnt open til 4:30.To make matters worse my flight was delayed til 10am and I slept somemore in the gate area where it was warmer but the seats had arm rest and less comfy to rest.There are several fast food joints open 24 hours a day if you want to eat and the bathrooms were clean.Free water was available at the Water Fountain.While I wouldnt want to sleep in any airport by choice..I would overnight at Newark if I had to.

Cots

If you have been stranded at Newark airport due to a storm, airport officials will bring out cots and blankets for stranded passengers at night. If you are trying to decide whether to book a room or stay the night, ask someone in a red coat when the cots will be coming out. Speaking from my experience at Terminal B, I can confirm that both airside and landside seating have armrests and the terminal is cold with a few warm pockets here and there. This is a miserable terminal with nothing to do or entertain yourself.
