Airplane Itinerary Question: Departure/Arrival Times, Where I sit, etc.?
It's been quite a long time since I've had the luxury of flying on a plane (I grew up travelling overseas with my parents as a child ), but it's been so long that I have no idea how it's done per se. Anyhow, the question is as follows: Depart: INDIANAPOLIS, 2:10PM Arrive: NEWARK EWR, 4:15PM Depart: NEWARK EWR, 6:25PM Arrive: ST JOHNS NFLD, 10:56PM Now with that information given, are the times presented based on the airport I arrive in, or is it a generalized time for where the person has bought the ticket from?? Like, is my wait in Newark 2 hours once I arrive before leaving to St.John's?? Next, I was told on my itinerary I could find what plane to search for to find where my seat would be.. I have googled every portion of my details and nothing has came up. Example: Flight: CO*3263 *Operated by EXPRESSJET AIRLINES INC doing business as CONTINENTAL EXPRESS Class: V Equipment: ERJ-145 Any help or kind explanations would put me at ease and be appreciated! To Renate: Yes, I do have my passport and everything is booked. However, my boyfriend up in St.John's , who lives there, booked it all, so I was still left in the dark as far as questions go because I wasn't the one on the phone booking! Hah. I'm looking very much forward to it. Thanks for the clarification also on the time! To Martian1174: Thanks a ton for that link and your answer :) Tirya: Bingo!, Thanks a ton for that link!

Hello, you have a layover in Newark for appox. 2 hours 5 minutes. This will go fast as you have to walk from one gate to the next and check in (your bags will be transferred automatically). You may want to ask the flight attendants on the first plane from Indianapolis to Newark - how to get to the gate in Newark and the gate # will be on your ticket. You need to book your seat before the flight. Call the airlines and ask if you can book the seat now for the Newark - Newfoundland part of the journey. Have you been to Newfoundland? I have been there about 20 years ago for a tourism even the Canadian Government put on and the people are wonderful. It is going to be really cold so take very warm clothes. You do have your passport right?!

Most airline websites' departure and arrival times are based on the local time of the airport you are departing from and the local time of the airport you are arriving in. Every airline also have their own seat configurations. Sometimes there are different seating configurations on the same type of aircraft. Check the specific airline's website for the seat maps, if available. For your flight: http://www.continental.com/web/en-US/content/travel/inflight/aircraft/embraerRJ145.aspx

the times are all local. So yes you have a 2h 10 m layover in Ewr. The aircraft details can be found at the airlines website.

go to continental.com & find your flight by typing in your confirmation number. From there you will have all sorts of options (change seating, times, etc...)
