Inside the Huge New Terminal That Will Transform J.F.K. The 2.6-million-square-foot Terminal One, part of a multibillion-dollar redevelopment of Kennedy Airport, will be nearly as large as the Empire State Building.

JFK Airport’s new Terminal One will be nearly as large as the Empire State Building. It will encompass 2.6 million square feet of passenger check-in zones, security checkpoints, baggage-claim areas, boarding gates and more. Take a look inside as it nears completion.

Don’t fly much for work these days but added a new airport, Kansas City (MCI), this week. Also my first time in Missouri - the 27th U.S. state where I’ve spent at least a night in

Slept like a baby on the way home to EWR, with the exhaustion that creeps up on you after the end of an airline conference

Was pleasantly surprised to see TWG tea in DEL and had to stop myself from automatically going to the SQ check-in counter :)

Landed at DEL T1, the domestic terminal, and jumped on the free shuttle bus to T3 where international flights depart from

Fun little touches on the IndiGo flight, from the trivia on the cup to the message on the door to the cockpit

Then the first time on IndiGo, flying JAI-DEL. JAI is home to a handful of gates - my gate was literally right after security

First time flying on Air India Express, on the very short DEL-JAI route

Recently returned from India, for #IATAAGM followed by quick solo trip to Jaipur. It was my first time in India (country no. 51!), with many aviation firsts, starting with my first time in United’s Polaris

Off to DEL for #IATAAGM 🇮🇳 (country no. 51)

The biggest public private partnership in U.S. history is happening at an airport - and that’s huge news.

One of the many wonderful things about NYC - coming across MTA music auditions in Grand Central Madison. Also, years after journalism, I still find myself drawn to the press check-in 🙋🏻‍♀️

Sorting through more than 15 years’ worth of business cards is quite the trip down memory lane. Oh the places you will go and the people you will meet when you join the aviation industry ✈️

Started a new book that promises to be both weird and wonderful. The aircraft registrations check out sometimes, but not this one.

Feel free to visit 😂

Office is in Jamaica but away from the terminals and not easily accessible. It’s an entire world out there…

For the past 1.5 years, I’ve become what is probably the NYC version of a transit supercommuter: Walk➡️Subway➡️LIRR➡️AirTrain➡️Port Authority shuttle bus. In a commute with so many points of failure, this was a small wrinkle but can I just point out this is an elevator, not escalator 🙃

Love when my worlds collide in a book I’m reading

Changi Airport’s Jewel makes a cameo in this Coldplay music video shot in Singapore. As a Singaporean who grew up and lived in government-subsidized housing, I loved seeing HDB apartments in the opening scenes youtu.be/f9Jpualtehw

Because we could all do with some photos out of airplane windows. From left to right: Takeoff from SIN, somewhere over Alaska, above Manhattan on descent to JFK

The NTSB to hold a media briefing at 2:45pm ET today (Thursday) on its investigation into yesterday’s mid-air collision involving a PSA Airlines Bombardier CRJ700 and a Sikorsky H-60 military helicopter near Washington Reagan National airport. #AA5342

Took me a while but finally made it to Jewel at Changi Airport. That rain vortex is indeed quite spectacular

On the climb out of EWR

Next stop: Singapore

Big day tomorrow in DC as Trump's pick for DOT will make his first public appearance since being nominated at a Senate confirmation hearing. On the aviation front, expect lots of conversation around Boeing and open FAA leadership positions. @theaircurrent.com will be covering live!

Christmas Eve ground stop for all American Airlines flights.
