Location and transport links

John F. Kennedy International Airport is located 15 miles east of Manhattan in the Jamaica borough of Queens borough on Jamaica Bay . The passenger terminals are connected by Interstate 678 , which is also referred to at this point as the Van Wyck Expressway, and the JFK Expressway with the Belt Parkway and New York State Routes 27 and 878 , which run north of the airport.

The airport is connected to the local transport network via the AirTrain JFK . There are also several bus routes that run regularly. The shuttle bus goes to Grand Central Station and a local Q10 LTD bus goes to Jefferson Boulevard subway station. In addition to the bus line Q10 LTD, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority also operates the bus lines Q3, Q6, Q7, Q10 and B15, which connect the airport with parts of the city in the area. However, some of these only stop in the cargo area.

history

Construction of the airport began in April 1942 when about four square kilometers of swampy tideland next to the Idlewild golf course were drained. Because of its location, the airport was initially also called Idlewild Airport . To date it has been expanded five times.

The first commercial flights began on July 9, 1948. On July 31, 1948, it was officially inaugurated as New York International Airport . Around 150 million US dollars were invested in the first construction phase up to the end of 1948.

On December 24, 1963, by resolution of the Mayor and City Council of New York City and the airport company, the airport was renamed John F. Kennedy International Airport , after US President John F. Kennedy , who had been assassinated about a month earlier .

In 1978, in the so-called Lufthansa robbery, around six million US dollars in cash and jewels were stolen from rooms at the airport. It was the most successful raid in American history.

In 2000 the airport passed the one billion passenger mark since it opened.

On June 2, 2007, the American FBI uncovered plans for a terrorist attack. Terrorists from the Caribbean wanted to blow up the more than 80 kilometers long fuel lines that also supply the second major city airport. However, the planning was still in a very early phase.

The total volume of investments to date has reached 8.4 billion US dollars. The airport contributes approximately US $ 52.7 billion to the economic output of the New York and New Jersey area. Around 284,000 jobs are directly or indirectly dependent on the airport. In terms of wages and salaries, over 17.7 billion US dollars are paid annually (2019). In 2019, 40,844 people were employed directly at the airport.

Incidents

From 1952 to December 2018 there were numerous total write-downs of aircraft at New York-John F. Kennedy Airport (Idlewild until December 1963) and in its vicinity. Examples:

  • On December 18, 1954, a Douglas DC-6 B of the Linee Aeree Italiane (I-LINE) collided with the approach lights during the fourth attempt at approach in the fog , crashed into Jamaica Bay and exploded. Of the 32 people on board, 26 died. The cause of the unstable approach leading to the collision was fatigue of the crew, who had been deployed for around 30 hours on the route from Rome via Milan, Paris, Shannon, Gander and Boston to New York.
  • On January 19, 1961, a Douglas DC-8-21 of the Aeronaves de México (XA-XAX) with 97 passengers and nine crew members on board had an accident when the take-off from Idlewild Airport (today's John F. Kennedy International Airport) was canceled. The incident was caused by the third, non-flying pilot who operated the thrust levers without prior consultation and thus reduced the power of the four engines . Four crew members died in the accident. At the time of the incident, the weather was bad and the runway was covered in snow. It is also possible that the heating of the pitot tube was not switched on (see also Aeronaves de México flight 401 ) .
  • On March 1, 1962, a Boeing 707-123B operated by American Airlines (N7506A) crashed almost vertically into the shallow water of Jamaica Bay about one minute after taking off from New York-Idlewild Airport . The reason was a malfunction of the rudder control, which resulted in a loss of control that could no longer be remedied. All 95 occupants, 8 crew members and 87 passengers were killed (see also American Airlines flight 1 ) .
  • On January 26, 1966, the nose landing gear of a Lockheed L-1049G Super Constellation operated by US American Trans World Airlines (TWA) (N7115C) collapsed while taxiing at New York-Idlewild Airport. The machine was damaged beyond repair. All inmates survived.
  • On June 24, 1975, a Boeing 727-225 of Eastern Air Lines (N8845E) flew into the runway approach lights in difficult weather conditions . At the time, there was severe wind shear . A total of 112 people were killed in the accident, 12 survived. There were 116 passengers and 8 crew members on board the machine (see also Eastern Air Lines flight 66 ) .
  • On March 12, 1991, a Douglas DC-8-62H of the US Air Transport International (N730PL) had an accident while taking off at John F. Kennedy International Airport. The aircraft was destroyed in the process, but none of the 5 people on board were killed. The cause was incorrectly calculated take-off and trim data by the flight engineer , who had assumed a weight that was 45 tons too low. Therefore, the plane could not take off.
  • On 12 November 2001 a crashed Airbus A300 of American Airlines (N14053) in the district of Queens, New York City after the start on a scheduled flight to Santo Domingo. There were no survivors among the 260 occupants on board the machine. In addition, 5 other people were killed on the ground (see also American Airlines flight 587 ) .
