We’re the New Terminal One (NTO) at John F. Kennedy International Airport, a bold and exciting project to develop a world class, international terminal that can serve as a global gateway to the New York metropolitan area and the greater United States. The $9 billion first phase is the largest single asset project financing in US history.

It will be built on sites now occupied by Terminal 1, Terminal 2, and the former Terminal 3, where it will anchor JFK’s south side. Construction will take place in phases, with the first phase, including the new arrivals and departures hall and first set of new gates, expected to open in 2026.

NTO will set a new standard for design and service and aspires to obtain a global Top 5 Skytrax rating as one of the finest ten airport terminals in the world.

The New Terminal One will be:

• a 23-gate, state-of-the-art, international-only terminal
• Sustainably designed and future focused
• Featuring expansive, naturally lit public spaces
• Cutting edge technology and an array of amenities
• Designed to enhance the customer experience
• Compete with some of the highest-rated airport terminals in the world.
