Is it just me or is it silly that domestic pax connecting to/from intl flights might have to walk literally almost a mile? I know a lot of airlines have similar setups in a lot of airports, but that doesn't seem like progress.
This is a shat plan hands down..... Instead of increasing the amount of terminal space for the future they are removing T3 and not replacing it... Also not sure if I missed it but was there mention of redoing T2? T2 makes T3 look like a palace. Oh and yes that walkway is just dumb. I bet the boys at B6 and AA are sitting back and laughing as these improvements won't even come close to what T5 and T8 offer customers.
I just can't get over the idea of lengthening the concourse like that...why not go laterally and build a 3rd concourse at least? It's not like the T3 removal is yielding all that much ramp space anyway.
It does seem like a bit of wasted space. Maybe they can do some remote stands for the CRJs rather than clog up the T2 gates. I wonder if they are going to have all flights check in at Terminal 4 vs Terminal 2.
Is there going to be room for the other International airlines currently using T4?
This Kean/Cuomo all over again. I have no doubt that the NY/NJPA and its respective states want to destroy everything historical and aesthetic about JFK.
