The Port Authority has announced a temporary fare reduction for the JFK AirTrain, cutting fares from $8.50 to $4.25 from June 30 through Labor Day. This decision comes in light of an expected surge of 18.3 million passengers at JFK during a significant redevelopment project worth $19 billion. The project involves extensive construction and renovations that are likely to cause road congestion. Officials encourage travelers to use public transit instead of personal vehicles and offer practical tips for navigating the airport's changed infrastructure during this busy season.
Starting June 30 and running through Labor Day, the fare for the JFK AirTrain will be slashed in half—from $8.50 to a far more palatable $4.25.

The $19 billion redevelopment includes expansions to Terminals 4 and 8, construction of the new Terminal 1 and Terminal 6, and a total overhaul of the airport's notoriously confusing road network.
