1) It looks like its the 737-800
2) With CO at Terminal C
3) No
4) Not sure
5) I believe it is just the regular business class
6) IIRC, you do pay a small tax upon departure, then again, its been a few years since I've been there. You're travel agent should know.
7) Terminal C. CO has no operations at Terminal B.

I think CO uses terminal B even in the absence of serious irregular ops - I think that just a couple of delayed flights occupying terminal C international arrival gates are enough to force CO to use terminal B during the peak European arrival period.

NAS Departure Tax
Hey,
Responding back on this, is there a departure tax that has to be tendered at NAS?

No, you do not pay a departure tax in NAS.
I've never heard of an airport in any country making you pay to leave. If anything the departure tax is built into the ticket price.

Oh there are most certainly countries that force you to pay a departure tax, though CO includes it within the fare when possible. My wife and I paid a cash only tax when we departed Antigua a couple years ago...

around $25-26
In addition, some countries, like Chile, require a $100 quasi-visa fee, payable in cash on arrival. Essentially, since you do not need a visa to enter, you pay the same fee as the Chileans do for a US visa. It is a one time fee valid through life of passport, though.

7. You do not need to clear customs in EWR. US Customs & Immigration are set-up in NAS. You will clear there, before you even go through security. After security, you will wait in NAS' "US Departure Lounge", which is just the gate area for US Bound departing passengers who have already cleared US Customs & Immigration.
