As part of the Port Authority’s $19 billion transformation of JFK International into a world-class airport, the New Terminal One (NTO) is creating the global gateway to the New York metropolitan area, building a 23-gate state-of-the-art terminal that aspires to be among the top ten terminals in the world, with the first gates planned to open in 2026.

The 2.6 million square feet terminal will feature expansive, naturally lit, public spaces, cutting edge technology, and an array of amenities, designed to enhance the customer experience. Travelers will enjoy world-class dining and retail amenities, as well as space for lounges, an indoor green space and family-friendly amenities—all with memorable public art and a uniquely New York sense of place.

The New Terminal One is committed to local inclusion and labor participation with an industry-leading focus on diversity and capacity-building opportunities, including a 30% minority and women-owned business enterprise (MWBE) participation goal in all categories of work and the creation of over 10,000 total jobs.
