Elal 3/18 (Motzay) Flight leaves at 10PM?
« on: March 09, 2023, 09:54:02 PM »
Is it possible to make it from Monsey to Newark for a 10 PM flight?
Shabbos is over 8:00 ish

(Im pretty sure Elal will change the time a few days prior)

Most passengers are frum.....Shabbos ends at 8 that leaves at least 40 min to airport from the closest major jewish area....plus a few minutes for havdalah.....Dont think most will be able to get there before 9

Clifton is 20 minutes from Newark. Union, elizabeth, linden, all much closer.

Large areas are usually Brooklyn Monsey.

If it's too tight for them why would they book the flight?

They don't care if you make it or not. Once you booked the ticket it is on you to make it to the airport. The only reason why they would change the time is if they can't sell out the flight, but i don't see why they would do that close to the departure date.
PM me for airline compensation help. Your case is not lost!

Correct. Probably a large percentage of their passengers are non shomer-Shabbos.

If arrive motzay at airport 1.15 minutes before flight doable (wtih luggage)? I have seen in the past on Motzay people arrive quite late.....

I'd have to imagine that will be just fine.

Maybe in CLE you can do 1.15 minutes before a flight, not in EWR.  :P
