Newark check in
Hello. Does anyone know what time the check in desks open for Turkish at Newark Airport? My parents will be flying in a couple of weeks and I don’t want to drop them off too early if check in doesn’t open. My dad was thinking they should arrive three hours before their flight but I think two hours should probably be enough, since I don’t think there’s a lot of people at terminal B at that time, and I hear there’s nothing to do there if they arrive too early. They will be in economy, and they have global entry as well, so should have access to pre check if there is a lane for that. Thanks!

out of that concourse of terminal B (TK, EK, TP just to name a few), so I’d probably advise to arrive 3 hours before.

Aside from contracting a few more check in agents, there’s really not much else TK can do. The main issues with EWR are on the PANYNJ and TSA.

I’m on the flight tonight and can reply with my experience. From what I’ve read the check in desk opens 4 hrs before departure. I have to get there 8hrs before due to my flight schedule from home so I’ll be first in line but I’ll let you know.

Checkin opened at 810p. No lines no waiting at that time. Was at security shortly after and there was not a single other person at security. There is a “premium” line which includes Pre-Check. Pre-Check consists of a slip of paper the TSA agent gives that allows you the expedited procedures. Was at the SAS lounge by 830.
