About Newark/New York
Largest US city and the financial capital of the world, spread across islands at the mouth of the Hudson River. Finance, media, fashion and the United Nations make it the densest source of air traffic anywhere.
Population about 19,500,000 at the game's 2010 snapshot.
Newark/New York is a business market: its traffic comes from companies and connections rather than from holidays, which rewards frequency over seat count.
