The new Terminal 4 at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport is part of a $1.4 billion redevelopment program at the airport.
The new Terminal 4 is essentially a 346,000-square-foot expansion of Concourse B, which now spans two million square feet, making it one of the largest terminals in North America.
The first phase of Delta’s Terminal 4 expansion includes nine new and seven renovated international gates; improved and renovated check-in areas, including a Sky Priority check-in; a centralised security checkpoint; new dining and retail offerings; a new 24,000 square foot Delta Sky Club with Sky Deck at Delta Sky Club outdoor terrace; an in-line baggage system to streamline and improve the baggage handling system; and improved customs and border protection, baggage claim and re-check facilities.
The new terminal will also see the debut of Sky Deck at Delta Sky Club, which is a 2,000-square-foot rooftop terrace designed by Thom Filicia in partnership with Architectural Digest. It offers a distinctive space with runway views.
Earlier in 2013, Delta revealed phase two of the Terminal 4 redevelopment plan that includes an additional 11 gates on Terminal 4’s Concourse B. Construction on phase two will commence immediately and is expected to complete in summer 2015. It will house a total of 27 Delta gates and replace Delta’s current Terminal 2 regional jet facility.
