John F Kennedy International

🇺🇸 New York · KJFK

Major international gateway serving New York with heavy traffic from Delta, JetBlue, American, and nearly every major international carrier. Pilots face complex taxi routes through four terminals and frequent congestion on the parallel runway system. The famous Canarsie (VOR/DME 13L) approach requires a sharp turn over Jamaica Bay, making it a favorite among experienced crews.
