Newark Liberty International Airport (IATA Code:EWR, ICAO Code: KEWR) is one of three major airports serving the New York metropolitan area, straddling the boundary between the cities of Newark and Elizabeth, New Jersey. 
Newark Airport is located 3 miles (4.8 km) south of Downtown Newark, and 9 miles (14 km) west-southwest of the borough of Manhattan. The airport handles almost as many flights as John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), despite being 40 percent of JFK's land size. In 2019, the airport saw 46,336,452 passengers, the most in its history.
The airport has the IATA designation EWR, rather than a designation that begins with the letter 'N' because the designator of "NEW" is already assigned to Lakefront Airport in New Orleans, LA, and because the Department of the Navy uses three-letter identifiers beginning with N for its purposes.
