Even if this turns out to be true, it doesn't give full info about any particular flight. Because of all the cancellations, many of UA's airplanes and crews are now in the wrong place, it will take them a certain amount of time to sort that all out.
From my apartment on the 46th floor I can see cars going in and out of the Lincoln Tunnel. As PATH and NJ Transit not moving and Holland closed, a good way to maybe get to/from EWR may be the bus that goes to the Port Aurthority. Looks like bus is running starting wednesday. http://www.coachusa.com/olympia/ss.newarkairport.asp
