Leaving for Stockholm in a few days on SK904 in J. It's been a while since I've flown through EWR terminal B, but I remember it being old and somewhat cramped. I have heard that the Port Authority has finally decided to renovate it. Does anyone have details on their progress?
Also are there any other lounges other than the SK J lounge that I would have access to?

Just the SK/LH lounge if relying upon class of service or alliance elite status.

Speaking of now at least, the departure-side of the terminal hasn't been that cramped -- at least not as bad as the SK/LH lounges can be at around departure time to Europe.

Terminal B has three satellites, each with its own security checkpoint. In the satellite used by SK, there was a recent expansion to the security checkpoint. While the lines can still be long, there is a fast lane when travelling in J which helps. The SK lounge is behind security, most other shopping and restaurants are actually before security in the main building. The SK lounge is quite decent.

The SK and LH lounges are actually two different lounges (located right next two each other and sharing the same entrance but with two different lounge attendants). *Gold will get you access to ether one. I persnally prefer the LH lounge - its smaller but still less full of people at the time of the SK departure to CPH. And the food is good as well.

I didn't know that - I tried accessing the LH lounge while travelling on SK as EBG once years ago and was declined at which point I stopped asking. I know I should be allowed access according to *G rules but thought it was a 'local rule' perhaps invented by the ground staff...

The *Gs are directed towards the SK lounge when the SEN lounge is full.
