So the Port Authority apparently realized that it's time to do some work on one of the JFK runways; Thus, 1 runway, the longest one at JFK is going to be closed starting in March and will open again, presumably in July. I think it will be later than that.....
Here's the link to the story: LINK
What's it to you? If you have plans to go to New York in April or May, like us, DON'T fly into JFK. There's already crazy delays with all 3 runways - now they only have 2. No way we'll fly into JFK. You might get luckly and fly to JFK when there are no delays, but knowing New York airspace...that's hardly happening these days.
So EWR or La Guardia it is for us. EWR is probably a better choice anyway - the train connection to downtown Manhattan is way faster and customer friendly.
If you're too stubborn and still go for the discount ticket to JFK - BEWARE! Don't say we didn't warn ya!
