JFK Airport serves as the international gateway to the State of New York and to the nation, welcoming more international passengers to the United States than any other airport in the nation. In 2016, JFK accommodated over 80 airlines serving nearly 60 million passengers. Air passenger demand continues to grow, with a twenty-two percent (22%) growth rate in passenger demand over the past five (5) years. Moreover, JFK continues to be the region’s gateway for air cargo, and is an important economic engine for the region, generating $15 billion in wages and nearly 285,000 jobs.
On January 4, 2017, a comprehensive vision was released for a transformative redesign of JFK in order to restore its place as a world class airport. The redesign and vision emerged from the recommendations of the New York Governor’s Airport Advisory Panel, in its report titled “A Vision Plan for John F. Kennedy International Airport”. The JFK Vision Plan will guide and coordinate redevelopment in order to modernize and revitalize the facility into a 21st century airport in a manner that maximizes job creation and economic opportunities for the New York metropolitan region.
