From Wikipedia:
"Terminal 4, developed by LCOR, Inc., is managed by JFKIAT (IAT) LLC, a subsidiary of the Schiphol Group and was the first in the United States to be managed by a foreign airport operator. Terminal 4 currently contains 48 gates in two concourses and functions as the hub for Delta Air Lines at JFK. Concourse A (gates A2-A12, A14-A17, A19, and A21) serves primarily Asian and some European airlines along with Delta Connection flights, while Concourse B primarily serves both domestic & international flights of Delta and its SkyTeam partners.
Airlines servicing Terminal 4 include SkyTeam carriers Aeromexico, Air Europa, China Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Kenya Airways, KLM, and Virgin Atlantic; Star Alliance carriers Air India, Avianca, Copa Airlines, and Singapore Airlines; and non-alliance carriers Caribbean Airlines, El Al, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Hawaiian Airlines, JetBlue (late night international arrivals only), LATAM Brasil, LATAM Chile, LATAM Peru, Uzbekistan Airways, and WestJet. Like Terminal 1, the facility is Airbus A380-compatible with service currently provided by Emirates to Dubai; both non-stop and one-stop via Milan.
Opened in early 2001 and designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, the 1.5-million-square-foot (140,000 m2) facility was built for $1.4 billion and replaced JFK's old International Arrivals Building (IAB), which opened in 1957 and was designed by the same architectural firm. The new construction incorporated a mezzanine-level AirTrain station, an expansive check-in hall, and a four-block-long retail area.
Terminal 4 has seen multiple expansions over the years. On May 24, 2013, the completion of a $1.4 billion project added mechanized checked-bag screening, a centralized security checkpoint (consolidating two checkpoints into one new fourth-floor location), nine international gates, improved U.S. Customs and Border Protection facilities, and, at the time, the largest Sky Club lounge in Delta's network. Later that year, the expansion also improved passenger connectivity with Terminal 2 by bolstering inter-terminal JFK Jitney shuttle bus service and building a dedicated 8,000 square-foot bus holdroom facility adjacent to gate B20. Also in 2013, Delta, JFKIAT and the Port Authority agreed to a further $175 million Phase II expansion, which called for 11 new regional jet gates to supersede capacity previously provided by the soon-to-be-demolished Terminal 2 hardstands and Terminal 3. Delta sought funding from the New York City Industrial Development Agency, and work on Phase II was completed in January 2015.
By 2017, plans to expand Terminal 4's passenger capacity were being floated in conjunction with a more significant JFK modernization proposal. In early 2020, Governor Cuomo announced that the Port Authority and Delta/IAT had agreed to terms extending Concourse A by 16 domestic gates, renovating the arrival/departure halls, and improving land-side roadways for $3.8 billion. By April 2021, that plan had been scaled-back to $1.5 billion worth of improvements as a result of financial hardships imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The revised plan called for arrival/departure hall modernization and just ten new gates in Concourse A. Consolidation of Delta's operations within T4 occurred in early 2023, along with the new gates opening. Delta will also open a new Sky Club in Concourse A along with an exclusive club to Delta One customers, the airline’s largest Sky Club, by early 2024. Delta’s Concourse B expansion is expected to be completed by fall 2023.
In 2019, American Express began construction of a Centurion lounge that subsequently opened in October 2020. The structural addition extends the headhouse between the control tower and gate A2, and includes 15,000 square-feet of dining, bars, and fitness facilities."
lol@the line for the sky club.
Every time I fly out of or into JFK, I always see a line to get into the sky club. Typically the afternoon hours have a line, and the early mornings don’t have a line that long. I have access to use the lounge as a silver medallion member with Delta since I purchased a yearlong membership, and the lines is one of the reasons I leave my house 4.5-6 hours before my flight. I know it’s super early, but you never know how long that line is going to move. I also have clear to get through TSA lightning fast, and it’s $149 for the year if you’re a medallion flyer within Silver, Gold, or Platinum levels, and complimentary if a Diamond member. Non elite fliers would have to pay $189 for the year for that expedited security service, and it’s only worth it if you fly every month, like I do. I’m going to try to get Gold or Platinum status this year even though I have to spend lots of $$$$$. 😤
I love love love these airport walking tours,it gives u an insight on many things ,great job hope to see many more tours .
Thanks! I don't get to fly that often, maybe just a few times a year at most, but I always do try to do a walkthrough video for terminals that I haven't done a video for, before I board my flight. It can be challenging though, because people are generally more on edge when they're in airports and sometimes don't react well when they someone walking around with a camera. And when I'm in foreign countries, sometimes I'm not sure what the laws are for filming videos in airports. But it's a fun way to kill some time before the flight, to walk around and explore the terminals a little bit. I enjoyed doing that even before I started this channel.
Great job. T4 is huge!
