I've read all the facts and statements on this subject- but I have a question that kinda is sililar to this topic- IAD vs EWR IA to D w/ checked bag - plus this will be my 1st time visit to either Polaris IAD and Polaris EWR for me.
Aug 2024 Arriving Mad to Ewr connecting to Den final destination- Business class/1st class- United . However, due to schedule change, I am allowed to opt for Mad to IAD to Den UA Polaris/ 1st class IAD- Den . Connection time in EWR with schedule change is 5 hours and if I opt for IAD, connection time will be 3 hrs.
I will have a checked bag but I also have clear, GE and tsa pre if it matters and I just would like suggestions as to do you prefer to connect and clear customs in EWR with bags or IAD. I have a 5 hour connection in EWR and would shorten it to 3 if I went through IAD. And, is the Poliris lounge in IAD better than the EWR lounge?
Thanks a million in advance and have a great time flying the friendly skies!

Arrived with UA947 (from AMS) somewhere at the start of C-gates, one of the first ones at least. Already at the gate pax were split in connections and local arrivals. The 'infamous' Mobile Lounges were already waiting for us. I have to be honest, once the Mobile Lounge was full, it departed and the ride was just like 5 minutes to the Main Terminal Building.
The Mobile Lounges are pretty packed with up to 100 people, and while waiting at the gate diesel fumes start to pile up in the car.
I was really not looking forward for immigration, but I was extremely lucky, since the AMS-flight was the first international arriving flight and I was literally the first person to pass immigration. Woop woop!
On Easter Sunday I flew back on UA946 with a 18:00hrs departure. The last mile arriving at IAD at 16:00 by Uber was quite busy. I think because of the Easter weekend. The terminal itself was not that crowded. Only carry on, so straigt to the normal TSA checks. Also there: I was in line for maybe one minute. Could believe it. Took the Aerotrain to C-terminal (so much better than the Mobile Lounges) and walked around a bit in C and D-terminal. Then settled down in the Polaris lounge, which was just occupied with about 50 pax. The Polaris lounge is really really amazing!
Unfortunately, we had to deplane after 45 minutes since there was a technical issue with the cargo door. Took some time to fix, but I was lucky to wait in the Polaris lounge again. Then after close to 3 hours we eventually pushed back. All good in the end.
So guys, thanks again for your answers last week, and I am aware that I was lucky with all the queues! DC itself was great. Also love the iconic Main Terminal building. The C and D-gates not so much. Not really a good first impression for the capital airport.

Connection experience
I'm thinking of booking SK from CPH, arriving 1525 (3.25p) into B-gates on a Sunday. I'd then depart on a separate ticket on UA to MIA at 1745 (5.45p) likely from D-gates. I'd have hand-luggage only, travel in economy class and no priority for immigration. This would give me 2h 20m to make it (if I miss the flight, I'd rebook for the morning after). If the SAS-flight is on time, is this a doable connection?
- 1535 - flight landed
- 1555 - I started queueing at immigration and used MPC-app lane
- 1600 - I was through immigration
- 1605 - Started queueing for security
- 1620 - Through security and took train to C-terminal
- 1630 - Arrival at gates in C-terminal

I decided I was up for the challenge so I could learn my own timing.
306 arrival at C2, first one off
317 Shuttle departs and I realize I'm in the back and not the front, oops
338 leave CBP. Surprised there was a GE line. I tried the app for the first time but that was a fail since there was no photo on the screen everyone even though it took the photo.
343, through clear, pre (with random check) and in lounge
I'm only in the lounge 5 min because food selection is underwhelming
353, people mover departs (after accidentally going down to the train)
358, arrive at D
406, arrive at PL
411, eating first course
So for me I guess that is the minimum time of I want to go to that lounge. I lucked out arriving at C2 but made some errors with the people mover and GE

Flight arrived C2
2:57, first one off the flight and find a pretty full moon buggy
3:03 min buggy leaves, GE app works this time
3:08 arrive at main terminal, now there's an app line
3:13 heading to clear, no line in pre but too lazy to pull out ID, oh another "random check", oh well
3:18 in C1 lounge
3:40 moon buggy leaves for D
3:52 at lounge
It was super crowded in the lounge and airport for don't reason. Usually the dining room is half empty, this is the first time I waited (only 2 min). There was only a two top available and I offered to the the guy behind me share.
I still have no i idea where the escalator is to go up to pre. I remember where the elevator is though

If so the escalator up is straight and to your left a bit - following the mobs of people going our towards the exits and passing by all the folks waiting for their family members to come out. Once you get to the main "hallway" on the baggage claim level the escalators are straight ahead and you can't miss them.

This is referring to after coming out of customs/immigration in the main terminal (IAB)?

International arrivals exit near claim 15, turn right and the escalators up to departure level and security are across from arrival door 2 shown on the map.

For those that might be confused by the recent IAB references,and wondering if it is a typo. At IAD. IAB that means "International Arrival Building"

I suppose I can try the other way next time (if I try this again)
