The New Terminal One at New York John F. Kennedy International Airport and Egyptair have announced a strategic partnership, enhancing the travel experience for the airline’s customers flying to and from New York City.
This partnership supports Egyptair’s ambition to expand its U.S. network and connect more travelers to the destination of Egypt. With nonstop daily service from JFK, the airline connects travelers to Egypt’s iconic landmarks, from the ancient pyramids of Giza to the monuments of Luxor. Egyptair will transition its JFK operations to New Terminal One in 2026, where passengers can expect an elevated experience at this new gateway to New York and the United States.
The New Terminal One is a key component of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey’s $19 billion transformation of JFK Airport into a world-class gateway, which will include two new terminals, the modernization and expansion of two existing terminals, a new ground transportation center and an entirely new, simplified roadway network.
“We are thrilled to welcome Egyptair to the New Terminal One family,” said Jennifer Aument, CEO, the New Terminal One. “Their strong commitment to customer service aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver a best-in-class guest experience. This partnership also supports Egyptair’s growth across the United States, and together, we will help make JFK the premier gateway for travelers heading to Egypt and beyond.”
Egyptair joins a growing community of leading airlines that will operate at the state-of-the-art New Terminal One, including Air France, KLM, Etihad, LOT Polish Airlines, Korean Air, EVA Air, Air Serbia, SAS, Neos, Philippine Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Air New Zealand, Royal Air Maroc, Air China, China Airlines, Gulf Air and Qatar Airways. A member of Star Alliance, Egyptair is the sixth carrier from the global airline alliance to commit to operations at the New Terminal One.
The New Terminal One is being built on sites now occupied by Terminal 1 and the former Terminal 2 and Terminal 3, where it will anchor JFK’s south side. Construction is taking place in phases with full completion in 2030. The first phase, including the new arrivals and departures halls and first set of 14 new gates, is expected to open in 2026. At completion in 2030, the New Terminal One, with a total of 23 gates, will be 2.6 million square feet, making it the largest terminal at JFK and nearly the same size as LaGuardia Airport’s two new terminals combined.
