Traveling with Alaska Airlines from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) was unexpectedly effortless. The Alaska Airlines EWR Terminal appears recently updated and well-structured, featuring clear signs and ample natural light, making the typical airport frenzy somewhat easier to handle. The check-in process was quick and effective, and the TSA lines progressed faster than I anticipated. The gate area in Alaska provided ample seating and charging stations—a minor yet greatly appreciated feature for regular travelers.
