    Seating for Business Class

    I am traveling home from NWK on the 43 Pennsylvanian. Are the business class car(s) marked on the outside or how do I know where to go? I am also traveling, next Sunday, on the 44 Pennsylvanian from HAR to NWK in business class. So I assume the same thing applies boarding in HAR as NWK (as...

    Newark EWR station

    Actually it will be included because my trip will be terminating and originating at/from EWR. Thanks for the heads-up though.

    Newark EWR station

    OK great. I was afraid I would have to go through some type of security that I couldn't take liquids with me. I am going to be using EWR because the customer wants to consolidate ground transportation as much as possible. So if I go into EWR I can use their car service with a coworker.

    Newark EWR station

    What is the station like? Any Wifi - free or charge? Do I have to go through airport type security to get on the train? If I have a car service do I still have to go to a main terminal to be picked up? Can you get directly to the train terminal without going through an "airport terminal"?

    A few first-timer questions

    If I go into EWR I have to take the train (Air rail or whatever they call it) to a terminal in order to get ground transportation.

    A few first-timer questions

    I want to go to EWR but if I go to NWK it looks like a nicer ride (business the whole way and no stops). Sorry for the confusion. This first time I'm going to NWK and the next time I'll go to EWR and compare the two. Either way I get picked up by a limo service and drive to northern NJ...

    A few first-timer questions

    Thank you very much for all of your replies/help. I look forward to taking the train rather than flying.

    A few first-timer questions

    I signed up for the rewards and also use OnePass. I wasn't aware that I could transfer points though. That's a great tip!!!

    A few first-timer questions

    Thank you so much for everybody's help. I have one more question. I can also take the Keystone to EWR through PHL. If I do that how much time should I allot between trains. One option is to take the 666 Keystone to PHL then the 88 Northeast Regional to EWR but that is only 9 minutes between...

    A few first-timer questions

    What is OTP? I'm taking the 44 Pennsylvanian out and the 43 Pennsylvanian back. I decided to out on a Sunday rather than Monday. I usually fly out Monday morning but I'm changing it up a bit for a more relaxed trip. I will miss the FF miles though!

    A few first-timer questions

    It has to do with schedule because some trains don't have a BC. Also if I go from HAR to EWR I go through PHL and business class isn't available on all but one leg out of about 10 possible trains. So there is no security at all? I know that is how it was about 20 years ago but I thought for...

    A few first-timer questions

    I fly every week but I am starting to work for a new customer on Monday and it makes more sense to take the train. I will be traveling from HAR to NWK. I have a few questions. How early should I get to the station What is security like. Will I be searched, will I go through a metal...
