CO Using TermB @ EWR??
CO 45 arrived at EWR from MXP this afternoon 20 minutes early and parked at B-56. I didn't think that CO had any facilities left at terminal B. Anyone know what happened?
The continuation of the direct flight is leaving from C85 and is scheduled for an on-time flight to MIA.

every now and then CO uses the 'B' for arriving flights. I havent heard of any flights departing from the 'B', they simply tractor the plane over to the 'C' term once they get it unloaded.
maybe C&I have them do it when they get backed up at 'C' or they are simply out of open Gates at the 'C'.
whatever the reason, if the people picking one up doesnt know that, then you have to drag everything over to the 'C' term to met your ride. Either way by renting a cart or using the AirTrain, I wouldnt want to have to do it.

Could be a problem finding room at terminal C; I see it has arrived at terminal B for the past two days. It's scheduled for C tomorrow.

There was a woman on the AirTrain coming in form NYP this afternoon who was confused, and I tried to help, but probably only caused more trouble when I suggested she check terminal C first and then go to terminal B.
I'm surprised that CO could be so busy on the 3rd pier of C that they couldn't land any more international flights, though I suppose it is a good thing for CO.
On the plus side, I got my first battlefield u/g ever today (PLT on an H fare upgraded on CO63 EWR-IAH after being told that the flight checked in full by the PC attendant). Great service as always. No wonder I keep flying CO ^

I've arrived on CO into EWR terminal B on an international flight. We arrived ~10:30pm and we were told that the customs/immigration portion of terminal C had already closed for the night.

I have also had domestic flights come into Terminal B- most recently, a
5- hour weather delay (in March). I have never departed Terminal B unless it was a NWA flight.
