John F. Kennedy International Airport
(IATA: JFK, ICAO: KJFK, FAA LID: JFK), colloquially referred to as Kennedy
Airport, New York JFK Airport, JFK Airport, New York-JFK, or simply JFK or
Kennedy, is the primary international airport serving New York City. It is the
busiest international air passenger gateway into North America, the 22nd-busiest airport in the world, the
sixth-busiest airport in the United States, and the busiest airport in the New
York airport system; it handled just over 59 million passengers in 2017. More than ninety airlines operate from the
airport, with nonstop or direct flights to destinations in all six inhabited
continents.
JFK is located in the Jamaica
neighborhood of Queens in New York City, 16 miles (26 km) southeast of Midtown
Manhattan. The airport features six passenger terminals and four runways. It
serves as a hub for both American Airlines and Delta Air Lines, and it is the
primary operating base for JetBlue Airways. JFK was also formerly a hub for Pan
Am, TWA, Eastern, National, and Tower Air.
The facility opened in 1948 as New
York International Airport and was commonly known as Idlewild Airport. Following John F. Kennedy's assassination in
1963, the airport was renamed John F. Kennedy International Airport as a
tribute to the 35th President.
