Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from San Francisco to Newark

Bring your own food with you. Airport and airline food is expensive and you WILL need something to eat on such a long flight.

Don’t be gate lice. Standing in walkways leaving a narrow thruway for those trying to get to other gates is antisocial and should be embarrassing for the offenders. Making travel more arduous for others is a faux pas not you winning a zero sum game.
