The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (PANYNJ) and JFK Millennium Partners, the consortium building a new Terminal 6, have hoisted into position the final piece of structural steel for the first phase of the 1,200,000ft2 terminal.
The terminal will feature expansive, naturally lit public spaces, cutting-edge technology, public art and an array of amenities designed to enhance the customer experience, making it a critical piece of the port authority’s US$19bn transformation of JFK airport.
Terminal 6 is scheduled to open in phases, beginning with the completion of the arrivals and departures hall and the first five gates in 2026. The second phase, including five additional gates, will open in 2028, completing the terminal. Terminal 6 construction is creating 4,000 jobs, including 1,800 union jobs in construction.
