How to Navigate JFK When It's Under Construction
Briefly

JFK Airport, the largest airport in the metro area, is undergoing significant renovations that complicate terminal access. Travelers are advised to use the AirTrain, which is cheaper and faster than rideshare options due to construction causing delays. Major terminals, particularly Terminal 4, house most lounges, and special clearances like TSA PreCheck may not guarantee faster security checks. Dining options, while typically underwhelming, feature standout places like Boulevard Bistro, catering to travelers seeking quality amidst airport concessions.
If you’re taking a car, direct it to an AirTrain station - not the airport.
Many travelers pay a hefty annual credit-card fee to get private-lounge access and then find they can't use it at JFK because the terminals don't connect.
