A short guide to John F. Kennedy International Airport

Subway and rail lines connect John F. Kennedy International Airport with Manhattan and Long Island. JFK is home to a well-known modernist landmark designed by famed architect Eero Saarinen. Completed in 1962, the TWA Flight Center is a National Historic Landmark that serves as Jet Blue’s terminal. Nearby, two popular beach towns—Atlantic Beach and Long Beach—are a short drive from JFK.

Close to JFK, within walking distance of the E and F lines. Clean rooms, friendly management. Not a great neighborhood, but not bad, and as good as you'll find near JFK. Overall, a pleasant surprise and very good value.
