American Airlines announces $125 million redevelopment program for JFK Terminal 8

Sunday, 13 Jul, 2023 0

American Airlines unveiled a $125 million redevelopment program for Terminal 8 at New York JFK Airport.

In partnership with the Port Authority, it will feature a new Great Hall and more than 60 new shopping and restaurant outlets.

“We look forward to delivering a transformative dining and shopping experience that represents dynamic New York,” said VP of Airport Affairs, Amanda Zhang.

“This commercial redevelopment will further elevate the travel journey for our customers.”

Following the recent completion of a $400 million expansion of Terminal 8, the commercial redevelopment will further enhance the customer experience.

Terminal 8 is the gateway for American’s oneworld partners.

Within the past year, British Airways, Iberia and Japan Airlines relocated operations and Qantas returned service to Terminal 8.

American selected JFK T8 Innovation Partners, a joint venture led by URW, to lead the redevelopment.

URW is an owner, developer and operator of real estate assets across Europe and the U.S.
