The New Terminal One at JFK International Airport has selected global real estate and facility management company JLL to deliver comprehensive facility maintenance services for the all-international terminal, scheduled to open in 2026.
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.
JLL’s specialized Aviation group will be responsible for maintaining HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fire life safety, and other essential technical services at the new terminal. The scope of work also includes operational readiness and transition (ORAT) and start-up support beginning early next year, ensuring smooth activation and ongoing terminal efficiency. Additionally, JLL will manage and operate the facility’s highly sophisticated building management and electric power monitoring systems and switchgear that power and monitor the charging stations for the terminal’s all-electric ground support equipment fleet.
“Partnering with JLL allows us to harness their best-in-class expertise to manage and maintain the critical infrastructure that powers this next-generation terminal,” Marisa Von Wieding, vice president of Operations, New Terminal One, said in a statement. “Together, we are setting new standards for operational excellence, technological integration, and sustainability—not just for New York, but for global aviation. Our commitment is to ensure that every touchpoint, from curb to gate, reflects our vision for an efficient, exceptional, and welcoming experience.”
“The New Terminal One project represents state-of-the-art airport infrastructure and design, and we’re honored that New Terminal One selected JLL to manage the sophisticated systems that will power this world-class facility,” JLL Aviation Managing Director Koley MacKay said in a statement. “Our specialized aviation expertise positions us uniquely to support New Terminal One’s vision—from managing cutting-edge sustainable systems to ensuring seamless integration of complex building technologies. This collaboration reflects New Terminal One’s commitment to partnering with industry leaders whose expertise and best-in-class capabilities help ensure an exceptional passenger experience and the longevity of the facility.”
